Play Tetris Plus Online

Tetris Plus is a 1996 Game Boy port of Jaleco’s 1995 arcade puzzle game, developed by Natsume and published by Nintendo in North America and Europe. Alongside Classic mode, Puzzle mode traps a Professor beneath a descending spiked ceiling; players clear lines in pre-arranged layouts across Egypt, Angkor Wat, Maya, Knossos, and Atlantis so he falls to safety.
