Controls

  • On touch screens, swipe to move, tap to rotate, and swipe down to drop.
  • Complete a full row to clear it; clear four at once for a "tetris".

Tips & strategy

  • Keep the stack flat and leave one column open for the I-piece (the long bar) to set up tetrises.
  • Learn to rotate pieces into gaps rather than sliding them across the board.
  • Soft-drop to lock a piece faster and earn a small bonus, but hard-drop for instant placement.
  • Watch the "next" preview and plan two pieces ahead so you never place a piece blindly.

Break Tris FAQ

What is a "tetris"?

Clearing four lines simultaneously with one I-piece. It scores the most, which is why leaving a one-column well pays off.

How do I rotate into tight spots?

Most versions support wall kicks: if a rotation would hit a wall, the piece shifts one cell out so it still locks in place.
