The genre lives on a gentle but real difficulty curve, levels that teach one idea at a time and clear rules that never change unfairly. Tetri$ understands that, and it shows in the first minute of play. The skills it leans on are logic and pattern recognition; both improve noticeably after a few sessions.
How to play Tetri$

- Follow the on-screen prompts. The developer describes the controls like this: WASD and Arrow Keys for Movement
- Read the whole level before your first move. Identify the goal, then look for the forced moves that must happen regardless.
- Switch to full screen if precision matters, and remember that the game keeps its own progress — finish a level before you close the tab.

Tips and tricks
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
