What is Jstris?
Jstris is a fast falling-block puzzle game in the style of Tetris, made by a developer known as jezevec10 and online since December 2014. It follows modern guideline rules, with hold, hard drop and the SRS rotation system, and it has become a popular training ground for competitive stacking players.
You can practise alone in timed modes, such as Sprint where you race to clear 40 lines, or Cheese Race where you dig through rows of garbage. In Live mode you join a room with other players and send garbage lines to each other until only one is left standing.
