About this game

Nyet arranges falling shapes into complete horizontal rows. Each cleared row makes room for more pieces, while the level controls how quickly they descend. David Howorth's version 1.2 instructions explain that scoring depends on level, placement speed and whether the next-piece preview is enabled.

J moves a piece left, K rotates it and L moves it right. Space drops it into place. The manual also lists 4, 5 and 6 for movement and rotation, plus 2 or comma for dropping. Learn one set before the stack becomes crowded.

M toggles the preview, P or Escape pauses, and S toggles sound. Previewing the next piece reduces its placement award by about a third, so it trades score for planning information. I increases the level when you want a faster challenge. Drop a piece quickly only after checking that it is aligned with the intended gap.
