Strategy

Lines, lines, everywhere lines, make this don’t make that, can’t you make the lines.

Above poor attempt at humor derived from the song Signs, originally released by The Five Man Electrical Ban in 1970 & made popular when the band Tesla re-released it in 1990.

You can score extra points by aligning pieces such that you have multiple stars in a row or complete many lines at once.

Many players leave a single space on the left or right edge of the playing field to fit a long skinny piece in to try to clear 4 rows at once.

In earlier levels where the game is slower it can make sense to hold out for bigger scores.

In later levels when the game moves faster it is best to complete whatever lines you can as the pieces falling faster make it harder to maneuver, particularly if the stack of blocks is close to the top of the screen.
