HONEST DAN'S TROUT - Gameplay (Tetris and Brick Breaker Combination)

-- HONEST DAN'S TROUT - Gameplay (Tetris and Brick Breaker Combination) --
Honest Dan’s Trout combines two incompatible genres of the arcade era - Tetris-style puzzle & Brick breaker.

This is a high score game, meaning the game continues until you lose the game.

Lose Conditions:
- running out of balls
- running out of space
- running out of time

Focus only on the puzzle board, and you'll run out of balls.

Focus only on the block breaking, and you'll run out of space and time.

Watch in frustration when:

the ball destroys that wonderful four-liner you were about to hit.
a new puzzle piece falls and throws your ball on an unexpected trajectory.
you lose track of the ball while focusing on placing the puzzle piece
you focus on the ball too much and block up an otherwise perfect puzzle board.

Feel like a boss when:

you move the puzzle piece into the ball to change it’s shape to perfectly match your needs.
play such an accurate ball game that you can stack up and clear 4 lines in one go (known as a “trout”).
you find yourself in a really long game as your performance keeps extending your remaining time.
you get the top score on the online leaderboards.
