The player to go first is chosen by the game randomly. One of the

The player must begin with this shape. Grab the TETRIMINO
piece and drop it into the Tetris Tower game before the TIMER
runs out.

is the next piece your opponent will have to play.
NOTE: If only one PIECE INDICATOR is lit and flashing, this
shaped TETRIMINO will be used twice in a r

opponent.
If you dr
op your TETRIMINO after your time has run out, the other
player will get to drop two pieces in a row, giving him or her an
advantage.
The object of the game is to create as many solid lines across as
possible. When you create a solid line across the tower, you score
