Not tetris, similar but I do not remember name...


Hya,

I forgot name of the game. Can anybody figure out?

The game: a kind of tetris type.
One rectangle (portrait) screen.
A block (of three squares, each of them has some color, red, yellow or...) falls.
When two squares of same color, they crack, and can expand diagonally.
When third square of same color hits cracked blocks, they collapse.
The more collapse same time, the more score.

I remember I complied on BSD, solaris or Linux quite a while ago.

Does anybody know the name?

Happy Penguins!

Hi,

Have you taken a look at this list of tetris clones/spin-offs?

Tetris Download List

883 different ones of which a 148 are 'other O.S's' (not dos/win32):

Maybe seeing the name rings a bell

Hope this helps.

PS: Just a list no actual downloads!

Hya

Thanks, however, none of them were what I was looking for.

Then I went back to check Debian package, it was there, xemeraldia.

Happy Penguins!
