    After reading this I thought there must be a nice and simple Tetris game in the play store. Boy was I wrong. I think some guy has a “block puzzle” empire and has just rereleased the same tetris clone game a hundred times. And official Tetris is a total abomination of unlocks and achievements.

    Bummer.

      There are three main Tetris games as far as playability goes.
      Classic Tetris for NES where you play with your foot
      Tetris effect where handling and graphics are decent
      Tetr.io where speed is everything

      Notable mentions
      Tetris 99 - tetris for Nintendo switch
      PuyoPuyo tetris - sometimes you play puyopuyo sometimes you play tetris

      Everything else is basically irrelevant

      I went through a similar thing, conclusion I came to was that as Tetris is so popular, the owners of the IP have it on lockdown… it is quite a specific IP that’s kinda hard to do something similar-but-the-same.

      Options I came up with were pirating a copy, or xbox game pass (iirc Tetris Effect is available there). Or… are there any Gameboy emulators that run on mobile?

      You can play regular Tetris for free on Tetris website on a laptop or something. I agree the app version is abominable

        I’m glad I decided to re-read the comments on this, as someone with aphantasia who really struggles with spatial stuff… WHAT THE FUCK, you weren’t exaggerating haha
