About Block 89: Brick Puzzle Game
Block 89 is designed around flow - the difficulty rises gradually across 20 levels, keeping you in that sweet spot where the challenge matches your skill. Easy to pick up, hard to put down.
Features:
- Dot-matrix LCD screen with authentic pixel rendering
- Light and dark mode (monochrome inverted, a minimal masterpiece)
- 8-bit sound effects
- 10 different block shapes on a 16×16 grid
- 20 levels of progressively increasing difficulty
- GIF replay sharing - show off your best games
- No ads. No in-app purchases. No subscriptions. No internet required. Just the game.
Score points by completing lines with blocks. Simple - but it gets difficult quickly.
Oh, and yes: this is the same guy that brought you Snake '97.
Cheers from Amsterdam,
Willem.

Look like Tetris
Good
I was looking for a small and simple Tetris game. This is it.
The old one is still better than the new one
Lástima que a veces se traba el control.
Excellent porting but i found one glich, sometimes down button sticks and blocks fall down quickly, please fix this.
