Pentamino! *****
by RJ3205 - Version 1.0.0 - May 9, 2013
Fun with no stress! Easy to play for hours! Its like figuring out a changing puzzle with no pressure! Kind of like T***s but it gets more difficult without leaving you with high anxiety levels. A brain teaser. If you like to think and relax at the same time, this is a game for you. I love it!!!

Great game *****

Refreshing new.Simple enough for any time, but yet self competing. Easy to spend a lot of time. But its not that you cannot stop. Excellent for work pausing to let the mind rest. Worth money!

It just seems like a game, but it is a serious brain training!

*
Keep your free space large! Do not let blue squares suffocate your freedom to play anywhere. Use your yellow pieces to instantly remove as many of blue squares as you can. Keep your free space large all the time!
*
Enjoy full freedom of placing pieces anywhere in an empty playing field. When you fill a column or row, they disappear, freeing those places and all blue squares in filled columns and rows.
Smart play: always keep large empty area and earn as many lives as possible. See how high you can get! Infinite levels.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: This American Pentamino game (American blocks) is NOT TETRIS and it should not be played as Tetris. In Tetris you need to tile on average 5 pieces to fill/erase one row. In Pentamino you have to fill/erase a columns/rows with almost every piece! The main strategy in Tetris is to TILE pieces together in skyscrapers and pray to get long piece. It is IMPOSSIBLE to play Pentamino that way. The main strategy in Pentamino is to FILL/ERASE columns/rows with almost EVERY piece.
Therefore:
1) The BEST strategy is to fill/erase columns AND rows whenever you can
2) The good and MOST USED strategy is to fill/erase columns OR rows
3) The LAST strategy is to TILE pieces together and you should use it ONLY if you cannot find any better strategy.
