GoTetris is back

Post by Marathon »

GoTetris is a variation of Tetris.
  • The pieces fall from the top edge of a 19x19 board.
  • Each piece consists of 4 stones.
  • A stone is either black or white.
  • If a string of one color is tightly surrounded, is removed. (This is the same as the capture rule in Go.)
  • If a single string of one color forms two or more eyes, it is removed. Note, unlike Go, in this game, eyes formed by adjacent strings are not included in determining if a group has two eyes.
GoTetris is written in Flash. When browsers stopped supporting Flash, GoTetris became unavailable. However, the author found Ruffle , an open source flash emulator. So GoTetris came back to life.
