In Block Blast, your objective is to clear rows and columns by placing tetromino shapes on a grid, similar to how you play Tetris. At the bottom of the screen, various tetromino shapes are available for you to drag and place onto the board. The goal is to strategically fill entire rows or columns with blocks. Once a row or column is fully filled, it disappears, clearing space for more blocks and earning you points. The more rows or columns you clear at once, the higher your score. You continue placing shapes and clearing lines until you run out of space on the board to place new tetrominos.

Frequently Asked Questions about Block Blast
