Realised it this morning
My brain would always just give me the shape I need to clear the line
Why is it always squares and straight lines?!
You don’t even know my real name
Leonardo
You re blessed, because i am bound to deal with whatever random BS is announced next. I ll take a call with developer
On long car rides, I would play mental Mario with the telephone poles and houses.
I still catch myself doing this on occasion!!
I do it very often and I suck
Yeah I didn’t go beyond 2 fulls lines
I can certainly play the Tetris theme in my head!
I did it often when I was really into it. I had Tetris dreams, it honestly was cool.
This phenomenon is literally called the tetris effect haha
Also, the title of one of the best Tetris games released ever. The visual and musical artistry in that game is astounding.
My favorite tetris fact is that it may help with PTSD flashbacks. Link for the curious.
Since learning about this, I have decided to keep the game installed on my phone in case something wild happens (I’m thinking after witnessing an accident or something). It is sort of comforting to have a scientifically backed up mental strategy that is easily accessible, even if it’s not a lot. I gather that tetris keeps the part of your brain responsible for looping images occupied with, well, tetris.
i only get squares, it’s super easy
Mine are always the shape of cheese doodles and I lose really quickly.
I’m not very good, I forgot to clear a line I filled.
In boring meetings, I play Arkanoid with things around me.
