"Falling Block" puzzle games that aren't Tetris

What are some of your favorite falling block puzzle games that aren’t Tetris?


I’m not great at anything that requires matching colors because I have a disability that only affects gaming ability most of the time (colorblindness).

Some games like Klax and Puzzle Fighter are almost impossible for me.

not this one. not ever!!

I suck at klax so bad it goes from manageable to stressing me til steam comes out my ears in like 30 seconds

pokemon puzzle league on n64 is my favorite panel de pon

I used to be completely obsessed with Dr Mario multi-player but all my friends hated playing with me so much cuz I’d make huge messes then clear a ton and dump trash on them too aggressively

Have you tried the GBC one though? It’s better in a lot of ways.

Panepon / Tetris Attack was always fun for me in multiplayer and back in the mid aughts I couldn’t get enough of Lumines.

Dr. Mario is maybe just a bad game, but its soundtrack is 100% bangers.

Damn I never knew there was a version of Lumines for PS2.

Maybe I did, before, but I didn’t, recently.

This is the exact one I came to post. I have to bug Closed about getting together and figuring out how to get good at it. Game rules.

I’m not sure single-player Dr. Mario is a good game, but I think it’s a pretty rad two-player game.

please… i can’t find it… it has a prerendered look sort of similar to baku baku animal but with lip-shaped falling puyos that turn to eachother and kiss when the conditions are right. i’m not making it up…

however i found a puyo clone titled
SUPER Foul egg

I used to play Yoshi on the NES. With two players, you hear these songs a lot.
