Buildings

The goal is to place the buidings on the grid.
On each line/column, there can only be one building of each size.
The numbers outside the board indicate the number of building someone would see if he were sitting here and looking in this direction.
There is a level generator, each is different from the other. The difficulty will change the size of the grid.

Push

You push the tower into the grid. If the sum is less than 6, the last 2 towers will sum up. If the sum is equal to 6, you will get 5 points, if it is bigger, the last tower will fall, and the score will decrease by 10 points. If you manage to create a line or column of 4 identical towers, you will get 10 points.
Your goal is to keep the score positive as long as possible, depending on the start level, the initial score will be more or less higher, there is a number of tower played, which is the real score.

Just another way to push box in a game.

TetrisNoid

During an unwanted experiment, the ball dedicated to a breakout clone has been dropped into a Tetris clone. TetrisNoid plays like a classic Tetris, but the ball will annoy or help you, destoying existing bricks.

Two mythicals classics in one.

Tipover

You play the grey ball and can only move from building to building, the building will fall if you give a direction only if there is enough space. Your goal is to reach the target building. You can choose the starting level. You cannot overpass a level but can choose to replay it via option menu.
