Puzzle Description:

My mom is addicted to Tetris, and now she's amazing at it and can beat anyone in my family at it, but she just didn't really understand it at first.

great puzzle!

I would bet that many pbn people also like tetris!

Those are some very "unusual" piece shapes/colors. I have never seen some of them before.

Thanks for making this puzzle and telling us about your family!

Adam, all the shapes are correct, but I didn't have enough unique colors, so I had to improvise with the checkered patterns. I think it made the puzzle a bit more difficult to solve though, so that was a plus in my opinion.

I got it. You nicely explained the reason for the different colors (and checkered patterns did make it harder by the way). I was just a little confused initially because the black/blue checkered piece on the R side, halfway up was right next to a blue shaped L-piece and some of the blue overlapped, so I couldn't quickly recognize the shape, but now I can. It is the two-2's-on-top-of-two-6's-piece. :-)

Jake would you compete in this week's WC ? (Forum #112)

Jota, if I have time, I will. I've just got finals this week, so we'll see.
