“Crack Attack

“Crack Attack is a free OpenGL game for Linux, OS X and Windows
based on the Super Nintendo classic Tetris Attack by Daniel Nelson.
this game starts off slow and it’s easy to clear the blocks.
However, as you’ll see, the game progressively speeds up and soon
you’re frantically clearing blocks in an effort to increase your
score.

“Game Play
Slowly, your stack of blocks grows from the bottom, and you’ve got
to make sure it never reaches the top. Because, once it does, you
lose! To eliminate blocks from the stack, line up at least three of
one color, horizontally or vertically. Once you do, those blocks
disappear, and put off slightly your inevitable demise.”
