DIAMOND BLOCKS

Do you feel like a master of packaging, a master of the logic of optimal stacking of shapes with different geometries on a platform of certain sizes? In this game, you will have to stack diamond blocks on a stone platform measuring only 8 by 8 squares. These blocks are similar to figures from the game Tetris. The maximum block size is 9 diamonds connected in the form of a square. The goal of the game is to fit the pieces together as tightly as possible, so that their fragments completely fill the vertical and horizontal rows of the playing field.

An entire filled-in horizontal or vertical line, similar to Tetris, disappears, freeing up space for stacking other shapes. And where to get these very figures, these diamond blocks? There is a special area below the laying area. This is where these figures are served. They appear three at a time. And only when you put all three on the platform, a new three will appear in this zone.

To remove lines, the color of the shapes doesn't matter. The line can consist of multi-colored fragments. The main condition is its integrity. The correct line consists of 8 squares.

The main mistake of novice players is littering the site. We are talking about a situation where you need to lay large pieces, but there is no room for them on the platform. If this happens, then alas, the game is over. In order to avoid such problems for as long as possible, try to keep more free space on the platform when stacking pieces. Consider the size of this space as well. Be prepared for the fact that at the most inopportune moment, three large squares will fly to you. This is extremely rare, but it does happen.

A large diamond block (3x3 square) is probably the most unpleasant shape for a busy site. In second place is a long straight line of five squares. Don't forget to leave places for them and you will play much longer!

We wish you a pleasant stay and positive emotions from new records. Good luck!
