About this game
Filling a row is only half the job. Every tetromino that drops from the top of the board is composed of individual tiles that double as Minesweeper cells. To clear a line and remove it from the board, you must completely fill the horizontal row and correctly flag or reveal every mine and number within it. Clicking a live mine or letting the rising structure reach the top of the matrix triggers an instant game over.
Because new pieces continuously expand the grid, tetromino placement directly shapes the puzzle you have to solve. Deliberate stacking allows you to assemble readable board states where deductions remain solvable without relying on random guesses. When the falling blocks threaten to outpace your logic, skilled placement can also manifest cleansed, mine-free tetrominos to help stabilize the board.
Fast-paced play opens up specialized clears. Deducing and sweeping a completed line before the subsequent falling block locks into place awards a Linesweep, with equivalent rapid clears available for four-line drops, tight T-spin maneuvers, and total playfield wipes.

I know I've already said how fond I am of this game, yet I truly TRULY adore it. It's my go-to when I want to unwind. Sure, I'm far from great at it, though putting some time into standalone Tetris lately has probably helped me improve :D
PLEASE give us a toggle to disable those combo settings, i adore this it's a blast yet oh my GOD combos keep triggering nonstop cause i mean i'm decent at each individually though rough at handling both at once yeah skill issue PISSES ME OFF
What an incredible game. Had no idea I needed something like this until I actually gave it a shot. It genuinely blows my mind how a straightforward concept can yield something this deep. Fantastic work! ^^
Teamed up with my dad and reached 12 million—he handled the minesweeper side while I did the tetris! It's actually a blast in co-op too, demanding tons of timing and teamwork.
how am i only hearing about this now, this is peak gaming, i'm a huge minesweeper fan and blending it with tetris is such a blast
Hey, got a few things to ask. One, can you turn off the xylophone sounds and the speed increasing while playing? For whatever reason they really bug me. And two, what became of the Steam store page? I located the community hub and steamdb, yet not the store listing itself
Searched Google for the Steam URL to put this on my wishlist, except following the link just drops me onto the main Steam storefront, identical to the link inside the game.
Adore this game, 10/10 (or 100 if possible), though I have one request: add a mode that runs slower, lets you pause either Minesweeper or Tetris separately, or at minimum gives another shot to clear the mines if you hit the top.
brilliant idea! way more addictive than expected too, managed a best score of 10,294 points. Combining minesweeper's puzzle mechanics with tetris's tension is super fun and makes for a remarkably solid gameplay loop!
holy crap this is so much fun, never figured it'd be this good, yet after getting super bored with regular minesweeper I decided to check this out and omg I've sunk way more time into it than I care to admit lmao
So I mapped my controls to run Tetris on the left side of a controller and Minesweeper on the mouse, and something super weird is happening: "rotate counterclockwise" is bound to my left trigger, yet it activates on both press and release. Meaning, squeezing the trigger turns the piece once, and then releasing the trigger…
Just a heads-up if you're trying it in a browser: it needs a few minutes to load, so give it a moment. Really intriguing mechanics—I'm terrible at Minesweeper, which means I'm awful at this too, yet once I worked out the left- and right-click controls, it drew me right in. Could easily sink hours into playing this.
Hey! Really loving this game! I've been grinding it for quite a while now, and yesterday my personal best sat right near 20 million! Only thing is, a recent patch appears to have totally busted T-Spinsweeps? Here's a screen capture from a run I just did—jump to the end to catch the bug. (That patch wiped out my best score, and I haven't been able…
