Verified first tutorial clear — not a complete run
The rules you need
- Read the empty cells in the eight-by-eight board and the shape in the tray.
- Drag the shape into a fitting gap and release it; the lifted preview sits above the pointer.
- Complete full rows or columns to clear them and reopen board space.
Complete two tutorial rows with one pair
In the shown opening arrangement, the two yellow rows share an empty cell in the fourth column from the left. The tray contains exactly the vertical pair needed for that gap.
Read both gaps before moving
Compare the pair with the aligned empty cells. It can fill both missing cells in one placement.
Place the pair and wait for the clear
Drag the pair so its lifted preview covers the gaps, then release. After the rows clear, the next tutorial says Columns clear too.
Place the pair and wait for the clear — actual result
What this example teaches
The shape covers both missing cells at once. Completing the rows clears occupied space; simply dropping the pair somewhere else would not demonstrate the same result.
Mistakes to avoid
- Aiming only by the pointer position rather than the offset lifted preview.
- Looking for empty space without checking whether the entire piece fits and completes a line.
Questions about this board
How is Gridora different from Reverse Blocks?
Gridora places tray shapes on an 8×8 board. Reverse Blocks has a different timed-arrival and storage system. Their guides and controls are separate.
What did the checked opening move accomplish?
It completed the two yellow tutorial rows. The game then advanced to Columns clear too. That is one verified tutorial step, not a full run.
Other modes and further play
The following tutorial demonstrates column clearing. The supplied browser build also defines further tutorial and game modes; this example verifies only the first row clear and the observed next screen. It makes no claim about a completed run or online progression.
