.SS The Game
.LP
Different shaped figures fall from the top of the playing area to the bottom,
where they come to rest.  When a figure comes to rest and it completes a solid
row of blocks across the playing area, the row disappears and everything above
it shifts down.  The game ends when the figures pile up to the very top of the
playing area.
.LP
The object of the game is to manuever the falling figure by moving it left,
right, and by rotating it to avoid having the figures pile up too high.  A
figure may be dropped to a resting position at any time for more points.  Your
score depends on the current level and the height at which the figure lands
or is dropped from.  The level (speed) increases when the number of rows
deleted reaches certain levels.

.SH COMMENTS
I tried to make this look and feel exactly like the PC version, with the
exception of the different background pictures and the "Next block" indicator,
which didn't work on the PC version that I saw.  The scoring system may
not be the same.
