Ordinary Tetris:

It's as the famous Tetris game, the goal is to use different falling shapes and blocks to construct (like a wall) complete horizontal lines without any holes inside, that causes any complete line to be removed (destroyed).

When any shape reaches its final position it make check if it completed at least 1 line to let it destroyed, when you destroy more than 1 you get higher score, when you destroy 1 double is better than destroying 2 singles, and the most is destroying 5 as it give like destroying 20 single! Also destroying 4 blocks (i.e. one tetris) gives like 10 single and like that.

The most important point is Don't leave holes inside your construction,

Anti-Tetris:

It's new style and different strategy in playing, it uses the same Tetris shapes and with same representation of blocks and holes, but here the goal is to try always to put the (blocks) that have the same type (circle, square or star, etc,) but with different color (blue with red) close to each other, this will make always the (Anti-Blocks) to eliminate each other.

Now you face 2 difficulties: constructing blocks to get minimum size, trying to put maximum number of Anti-Blocks near to get out of them.

It needs deeper thinking and strategy in playing.

New features in Super Tetris 2:

Ghost block:

It's a single block that has the ability to pass through blocks to fill inner holes that covered by blocks. This ghost always fills the deeper hole in the column you choose.

It can't pass through columns of blocks that have no holes to fill.

Bomb Block:

It's a single block that has the ability to eliminate all near blocks.

It’s used to open for covered holes inside your structure to fill, destroying bad structures.

It can't destroy Black Hole!

It depends on player's strategy, and you'll find that it's useful if you use it wisely.

Black Hole:

It's single block that behaves like a block and like a hole and like a bomb! (Nearly like the black holes in space).

The block feature that no other block can occupy its place, its hole feature that it refuse to be destroyed as it's a free block,

It happen to become a bomb and blow (destroyed) and destroy all 8 adjacent blocks when it's covered from all directions (8 blocks) by at least 1 block.

So the best way to handle this block is to try to cover it by blocks and NEVER let a near hole that you can't fill easily.

When you destroy a Black-Hole it give you some good score!

(Hint: when covering it try to make upper covering surface like a shell of 1 block, this will decrease the black hole bad effects. Also when you increase the black-holes ratio try to increase the bombs ratio to help you)
