Blockfall: spatial planning in its cleanest form
Classic removes Journey modifiers. Complete a full run and compare only results that the server can verify.
How it works
Place four-block shapes on a board ten cells wide. A full horizontal row clears. The run ends when a new shape cannot enter.
Controls
- Arrow keys move, rotate and soft-drop.
- Space performs a hard drop.
- Touch controls expose the same actions on mobile.
Scoring
Row base points are separate from consecutive-clear and drop bonuses. A single four-row clear gives 800 base points; four separate one-row clears give 400 base points in total. Their final totals can differ once bonuses are included.
Fair competition
The browser does not decide the leaderboard score. The server replays inputs using the session seed and stored rules.
Tips
- Keep the board low and avoid sealed holes.
- Read the next piece before locking.
- Under pressure, preserve control before chasing a bonus.
Frequently asked questions
Can I play Classic without an account?
Yes. An account adds public identity and account-wide result history.
Does Classic have power-ups?
No. Power-ups belong to Journey progression.
