## Description

Physical Blocks reimagines the classic Tetris with realistic physics simulation. Unlike traditional Tetris, blocks in this game fall under gravity without grid restrictions, allowing free rotation and movement. Lines clear by sufficiently filling them, cutting blocks into smaller fragments to add extra chaos and excitement.

Enjoy multiple game modes including the original physics-based puzzle and the "Stack" mode where you fit pieces into a confined space. Compete globally with an online leaderboard and enjoy ad-free gameplay. Inspired by "Not Tetris" and created with its developer's consent, Physical Blocks offers a fresh, challenging, and fun twist on a timeless classic.
