About

Tetris: The Grand Master is a series of arcade puzzle games by Arika, a competitive spin-off of Tetris built around a dan ranking system with increasing speed levels. shiromino is an open-source puzzle game maintained by a small volunteer team; unlike most Tetris-likes, it supports pentomino pieces in addition to standard tetrominoes. It's available as an AUR package on Arch Linux and as pre-built Windows executables, or it can be compiled from source.

How it differs from the original

It extends the tetromino-based format with pentomino pieces, going beyond a straight Tetris: The Grand Master clone.

Getting started

Install it via the AUR ("shiromino" or "shiromino-git") on Arch Linux, download a pre-built Windows executable from GitHub releases, or compile it from source following the project's build documentation.
