Soviet Block II
Head-To-Head-Tris is a two player game
of skill and strategy. The game is played
in rounds. Each round, the players drop
pieces from both ends of a sideways pit.
The pieces move towards a middle bar,
where they stop falling and a new piece
tumbles in.
Eventually, the pieces form complete
vertical columns. These vertical columns,
when filled, will disappear, moving the
blocks on that side of the pit towards the
middle. This gives greater maneuver-
ability at the top of the playing field. You
have the ability to maneuver pieces by
rotating them and moving them left and
right.
After you clear several vertical columns,
the game adds a twist. There is a middle
bar that will move left or right. If you are
the player on the left, the bar will move
right, and all the blocks will move along
with it. This has the effect of giving the
player on the left more space to maneuver.
As well, it gives the player on the right
less space.
The round ends when the middle bar
reaches one of the two goal lines, indicated
by the two upper arrows and two lower
arrows. Like a tug-of-war, if you push the
middle bar to the opponent's goal line, you
win the round. The game then continues
with another round - a clear pit with faster
pieces, and farther goal lines.
A player loses the game when his portion
of the pit is filled to the top.
ENJOY!!!
