Question 1

Is the daily board the same for everyone?

Accepted Answer

Yes: the sequence of pieces is the same for every player on a given day, and the target score is set by our own bot playing the same sequence.

Question 2

What happens when nothing fits?

Accepted Answer

The game ends and your score is recorded. Once per game you can have one more go, free, which clears your two fullest rows.

Question 3

Are the pieces random?

Accepted Answer

They're drawn from a set of 19 shapes with weights that keep the game fair; big pieces come less often, and you'll never be dealt three pieces that can't be placed.

Question 4

Is there a timer?

Accepted Answer

No. Blocks is a thinking game, not a reflex game.

Question 5

Is it free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Daily and Endless are free, and every past daily board is open to everyone while Suvi is new.
