10X10 PUZZLE GAME

Games like this one can also be found under the names Puzzle Stacking, Stack the pieces, Puzzle Deluxe or simply 1010, etc

. 10x10 means the size of the playing field — 10 by 10 cells (cells). On the field, you need to stack figures assembled from single-celled elements of the same color, such as those found in Tetris. In general, the 10x10 puzzle does not differ from Tetris, perhaps only by the lack of dynamics. Here the figures do not fall, but lie quietly, waiting for you to pick them up to put them on the field.

So, how to play. The color of the shapes doesn't matter.You only need it to distinguish the shapes more clearly from each other. You should pack the pieces as tightly as possible, taking care not to leave any empty squares.

Each fully filled row or column is cleared (as in Tetris rows), freeing up space. The pieces appear at the bottom, under the field, in threes, that is, three pieces at once. New ones are not added until the current ones are stacked. If the remaining one, two, or all three pieces cannot be placed on the board, the game is considered lost.

The rules seem to be clear, but you need to choose a special strategy if you want to score more points. The fact is that often at least one large figure comes in the top three, which requires a significant amount of space to place. This fact often catches the player off guard: there is no place on the field, and he loses. To prevent this from happening, try to reserve the appropriate space on the field when arranging and thinking about moves.
