Pattris (also distributed as Pattris++) is a 1999 Tetris-inspired puzzle game for the Classic Mac OS by Valeri Marcello. It distinguishes itself from the falling-block formula with a single-block piece that acts as a filler and shoots additional blocks into the well, blending arcade reflexes with puzzle stacking.
Gameplay
The familiar Tetris well returns, but instead of rotating tetrominoes the player guides a one-block piece that fills gaps and launches additional blocks, demanding a different kind of spatial planning than the seven-tetromino classic.
Author and Release
Pattris was written by Valeri Marcello and released in 1999, near the end of the Classic Mac OS shareware era, in both 68k and PowerPC builds.
System Requirements
Runs on System 7.0 through 7.6 and Mac OS 9, on either 68k or PowerPC hardware, with a color-capable Mac required.
