Descpription: The game is the logical extension of Tetris into
the third dimension. In regular Tetris, the player manipulates a set of tetrominoes
which fall into a two-dimensional pit (seen from the side). The aim is to solve a real-time
packing problem by forming complete rows, which then disappear and score points.

Poor play leads to incomplete rows, caused by inefficient arrangements of tiles; these rows do
not disappear, giving the player progressively less space and less time to play subsequent pieces.
