    After reading this I thought there must be a nice and simple Tetris game in the play store. Boy was I wrong. I think some guy has a “block puzzle” empire and has just rereleased the same tetris clone game a hundred times. And official Tetris is a total abomination of unlocks and achievements.

    Bummer.

      I went through a similar thing, conclusion I came to was that as Tetris is so popular, the owners of the IP have it on lockdown… it is quite a specific IP that’s kinda hard to do something similar-but-the-same.

      Options I came up with were pirating a copy, or xbox game pass (iirc Tetris Effect is available there). Or… are there any Gameboy emulators that run on mobile?

        I’m glad I decided to re-read the comments on this, as someone with aphantasia who really struggles with spatial stuff… WHAT THE FUCK, you weren’t exaggerating haha
