Blocks XL

The sequel or full version perhaps of Blocks by Engine Nine, a columns clone on the Amiga from Engine Nine Design coded by Matt Briggs. It involves arranging falling blocks in such a way as to clear them. They are groups of 3 same-size but varying color blocks, which must be arranged into sequences of 3 or more, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Sequences of 4 or 5 count for double or triple points, and diagonal sequences score the most. The real trick is to set up 'combos' - where one line causes other blocks to drop so as to create other lines.
