S-TETRIS V1.3 (Roge'r Soft) HINTS (Unregistered version)
==================================

What you have to do is very simple. Every zone (or screen) will show ONE
flicking brick. You must ELIMINATE the row in where the brick is located, by
filling all the empty spaces. When you're done, you will receive bonus
depending on how many seconds it took you to finish and how many empty
lines are from the top of the board to the highest brick found.
Then you will see another zone (or screen), and so on...
This release contains up to 51 different zones, but the program can
hold up to 100 (so far) in one single game.

To start playing, just type ST from the DOS prompt.

The main menu will ask you for a block set number. There are three different
sets. The set #1 is the typical blocks found in every Tetris-like game.
The set #2 adds a few more blocks, and the set #3 uses the blocks from
sets #1 and #2 plus a few more, with a total of 15 different blocks.
I suggest you to use always the set #3. Don't be fooled. It is much
more easier by using all the different blocks, rather than only 7 or 10.

After choosing a set, you will be asked for the zone you wish to
start. This release allows only a zone between 1 and 10. Registered
release allows to start at any desired zone.


* To move the blocks, use the arrow keys.
* To rotate the blocks, use ENTER, SPACE or the UP arrow key.
* The block with this shape (Set #3):

X
XXXXX

has some special capabilities. Instead of explain them here, try to find
out by yourself. Note that it behaves always in the same way.

Enjoy it !!

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
