''Tetris Plus'' is notable for being the first successful release of a ''[[:Category:Tetris (franchise)|Tetris]]''-branded game on a game console not developed or owned by [[Nintendo]], who previously held console exclusivity rights to ''Tetris''. It is the first officially licensed ''Tetris'' game on a Sega console since ''[[Tetris]]'' for the [[Mega Drive]] was blocked from release, predating the release of ''[[Tetris-S]]'' by several months.

'''Classic Mode:''' Classic mode plays very much like traditional Tetris. One notable visual adjustment is a set of rainbow-colored bars besides the playing field that rise during play. Once the bars are maxed out, the speed level increases and the bars are reset. The bars rise in-sync gradually from placing Tetris pieces on the field, and gets a boost with cleared lines.
+
''Tetris'' is a falling block puzzle game. Pieces made of four squares, called tetrominoes, fall from the top of the screen one at a time into a playing field. The player can rotate and move the pieces so that they fit together. When a piece is placed on top of another piece, it is locked in place and a new piece starts to fall. If the player forms a horizontal line, it is cleared and any lines above it fall downward. More points are awarded for clearing more lines in one move. The most lines that can be cleared at once is four, which is called a "tetris." Tetrominoes come in five different shapes. The game ends when the uncleared lines reach the top of the playing field.
 +
 
 +
The ruleset is based off [[Sega rotation]], with a notable difference being that pieces spawn right-middle.
 +
 
 +
Pieces are moved with {{left}} and {{right}}. They are dropped faster with {{down}}. Pieces are rotated clockwise with {{B}} or counterclockwise with {{A}} or {{C}}.
 +
 
 +
===Modes===
 +
====Classic Mode====
 +
{{ScreenThumb|Tetris Plus Saturn, Classic Mode.png|width=200|Classic Mode}}
 +
Classic mode plays like traditional ''Tetris''. It is an endless mode that continues until the player loses. On each side of the playing field is a rainbow-colored bar that rises as the player clears lines. Once the bars are completely filled, the next tetromino locked into place advances the player to the next level. This increases the speed level (up to level 25), increases the points awarded for each cleared line (up to level 10), and clears the bars. The game always starts at level 1, with no level select available.
 +
 
 +
The initial point values are 100 points for a single (one line cleared), 400 points for a double, 800 points for a triple, and 1,600 points for a tetris (four lines cleared). There are four difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, and Very Hard).
 +
 
 +
The game appears in a vertical split screen. A second player can start a separate game on the other side of the screen at any time by pressing {{Start}} on a second control pad. This is a non-competitive mode, so players cannot affect each other's games.
 +
 
 +
====Puzzle Mode====
 +
{{ScreenThumb|Tetris Plus Saturn, Puzzle Mode.png|width=200|Puzzle Mode}}
 +
This is a mission-based mode where the player have a limited amount of time to clear pieces arranged in a prearranged layout. Following a simple plotline of a Professor and his assistant seeking ancient treasure, there are four zones (Egypt, Angkor Wat, Maya, and Knossos) immediately selectable, with 20 puzzles each. The final area, Atlantis, is unlocked by successfully completing all of the other zones. The player's progress is saved to one of three slots in the Saturn's internal memory.
 +
 
 +
In each puzzle, the Professor is placed in a play field with preplaced blocks, and a spinning spiked ceiling gradually lowers on top of him. The objective is to get the professor to fall to the bottom of the play field, by placing blocks and clearing lines, before the spiked ceiling at the top comes down and crushes him. The spiked ceiling falls slowly, destroying any placed blocks that are in its way and reducing the size of the play field. Clearing three or four rows at once moves the ceiling back up. The player is awarded a time bonus depending on how quickly the puzzle is completed.
 +
 
 +
The Professor is two blocks square and aimlessly walks forward until he bumps into a block and turns around. If he comes across a gap that is large enough for him to fit through, he falls down onto the blocks below him. Conversely, if blocks are placed on top of him, he climbs up them until he reaches the top. If he is unable to move, he falls asleep until either a block comes down onto him or the ceiling reaches his current position. The puzzle is failed if the ceiling touches the Professor.
  
−
In the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation versions, the player always starts at level 1 on Classic Mode, with no level select available.
+
====Vs Mode====
 +
{{ScreenThumb|Tetris Plus Saturn, Vs Mode.png|width=200|Vs Mode}}
 +
This is a mode where two players compete with each other in a variation of the Puzzle Mode rules. When players clear two or lines at once, they send new lines (with one missing block so they are not cleared) to the bottom of their opponent's play field. Clearing two lines sends one line, clearing three lines sends two lines, and clearing four lines sends three lines.
  
−
The ruleset is based off [[Sega Rotation (Tetris)|Sega Rotation]], with a notable difference being that Tetris pieces spawn right-middle.
+
The first player to get their professor to the bottom of the screen wins. A player also wins if their opponent's Professor hits the spiked ceiling. There are ten different layouts of preplaced blocks used for the initial play fields. Matches are played to the best of three games (but this can be changed in the options to 1, 5, or 7).
  
−
'''Puzzle Mode:''' Following the simple, childish plotline of "the Professor" and "his Assistant" seeking out ancient treasure, the player chooses from a set of four areas each with 20 different Puzzles.
+
====Edit Mode====
−
In each puzzle, the Professor is placed in a area with pre-set blocks, and a spinning spiked ceiling gradually lowering towards him. The goal in each puzzle is to guide the Professor to the bottom of the screen with an understanding of the rules of Tetris and the Professor's own behavior patterns. A Game Over happens if the Professor and the spiked ceiling collide.
+
{{ScreenThumb|Tetris Plus Saturn, Edit Mode.png|width=200|Edit Mode}}
 +
An editor that allows players to create their own Puzzle Mode puzzles. The player can change the background, place blocks, move the Professor, and adjust the height of the ceiling.
  
−
After the first four areas are cleared, a final area opens up with 20 more puzzles, offering a total of 100 puzzles in Puzzle Mode.
+
Blocks are placed with {{A}} or {{C}} or erased with {{X}}, {{Y}}, or {{Z}}. The color of placed blocks can be changed with {{L}} and {{R}}. The selection is canceled with {{B}}.
  
−
'''VS. Mode:''' Two players compete with each other in a variation of "Puzzle Mode" rules. As players clear lines, they may send new lines to their opponent to get in the way. The first player to get his professor to the bottom of the screen wins - likewise the player wins if his opponent's professor hits the spiked ceiling.
+
Up to ten puzzles can be saved to the Saturn's internal memory.
  
−
'''Edit Mode:''' Allows players to create their own "Puzzle Mode" style puzzles. 10 pre-set Puzzles are used as examples. The puzzles can be saved to Saturn Back-up RAM.

Tetris Plus (テトリスプラス) is a 1995 arcade game by Jaleco ported to multiple game systems including the Sega Saturn.

Tetris Plus is notable for being the first successful release of a Tetris-branded game on a game console not developed or owned by Nintendo, who previously held console exclusivity rights to Tetris. It is the first officially licensed Tetris game on a Sega console since Tetris for the Mega Drive was blocked from release, predating the release of Tetris-S by several months.

Gameplay

Tetris is a falling block puzzle game. Pieces made of four squares, called tetrominoes, fall from the top of the screen one at a time into a playing field. The player can rotate and move the pieces so that they fit together. When a piece is placed on top of another piece, it is locked in place and a new piece starts to fall. If the player forms a horizontal line, it is cleared and any lines above it fall downward. More points are awarded for clearing more lines in one move. The most lines that can be cleared at once is four, which is called a "tetris." Tetrominoes come in five different shapes. The game ends when the uncleared lines reach the top of the playing field.

The ruleset is based off Sega rotation, with a notable difference being that pieces spawn right-middle.

Pieces are moved with Left and Right. They are dropped faster with Down. Pieces are rotated clockwise with B or counterclockwise with A or C.

Modes

Classic Mode

Classic Mode

Classic mode plays like traditional Tetris. It is an endless mode that continues until the player loses. On each side of the playing field is a rainbow-colored bar that rises as the player clears lines. Once the bars are completely filled, the next tetromino locked into place advances the player to the next level. This increases the speed level (up to level 25), increases the points awarded for each cleared line (up to level 10), and clears the bars. The game always starts at level 1, with no level select available.

The initial point values are 100 points for a single (one line cleared), 400 points for a double, 800 points for a triple, and 1,600 points for a tetris (four lines cleared). There are four difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, and Very Hard).

The game appears in a vertical split screen. A second player can start a separate game on the other side of the screen at any time by pressing  START  on a second control pad. This is a non-competitive mode, so players cannot affect each other's games.

Puzzle Mode

Puzzle Mode

This is a mission-based mode where the player have a limited amount of time to clear pieces arranged in a prearranged layout. Following a simple plotline of a Professor and his assistant seeking ancient treasure, there are four zones (Egypt, Angkor Wat, Maya, and Knossos) immediately selectable, with 20 puzzles each. The final area, Atlantis, is unlocked by successfully completing all of the other zones. The player's progress is saved to one of three slots in the Saturn's internal memory.

In each puzzle, the Professor is placed in a play field with preplaced blocks, and a spinning spiked ceiling gradually lowers on top of him. The objective is to get the professor to fall to the bottom of the play field, by placing blocks and clearing lines, before the spiked ceiling at the top comes down and crushes him. The spiked ceiling falls slowly, destroying any placed blocks that are in its way and reducing the size of the play field. Clearing three or four rows at once moves the ceiling back up. The player is awarded a time bonus depending on how quickly the puzzle is completed.

The Professor is two blocks square and aimlessly walks forward until he bumps into a block and turns around. If he comes across a gap that is large enough for him to fit through, he falls down onto the blocks below him. Conversely, if blocks are placed on top of him, he climbs up them until he reaches the top. If he is unable to move, he falls asleep until either a block comes down onto him or the ceiling reaches his current position. The puzzle is failed if the ceiling touches the Professor.

Vs Mode

This is a mode where two players compete with each other in a variation of the Puzzle Mode rules. When players clear two or lines at once, they send new lines (with one missing block so they are not cleared) to the bottom of their opponent's play field. Clearing two lines sends one line, clearing three lines sends two lines, and clearing four lines sends three lines.

The first player to get their professor to the bottom of the screen wins. A player also wins if their opponent's Professor hits the spiked ceiling. There are ten different layouts of preplaced blocks used for the initial play fields. Matches are played to the best of three games (but this can be changed in the options to 1, 5, or 7).

Edit Mode

Edit Mode

An editor that allows players to create their own Puzzle Mode puzzles. The player can change the background, place blocks, move the Professor, and adjust the height of the ceiling.

Blocks are placed with A or C or erased with X, Y, or Z. The color of placed blocks can be changed with L and R. The selection is canceled with B.

Up to ten puzzles can be saved to the Saturn's internal memory.
