This can be used as a garbage disposal, by having it remove any unwanted pieces until the piece the player wants shows up. The ceiling will also destroy any placed blocks that are in its way. The player is able to make the ceiling go back up, however, if they can clear three or four rows at once. About once every eighteen seconds, it will move down one row, slowly taking away workable space. Upon starting the level, the spiked ceiling will start at the top of the play area. If these blocks lead too closely to the spikes, the professor will die. Conversely, if blocks are placed on top of him, he will climb up them until he reaches the top. If he comes across a gap that is large enough for him to fit through, he will fall down onto the blocks below him. Two blocks wide and tall, he will aimlessly walk forward until he bumps into a block, after which he turns around and walks the other way. The player's goal is to guide this archaeologist to the bottom as fast as possible. The objective is to get the professor to the bottom of the screen, by placing blocks and clearing lines, before the spiked ceiling at the top comes down and crushes him. Once the game starts, the player is presented with a cluster of pre-placed bricks, and the professor enters the play-area through a disappearing gate. Each of the four locations has a different level set. The final area, Atlantis, is unlocked by successfully completing the other four stages (in any order). The player starts by choosing any of four world locations: Maya, Knossos, Egypt, or Angkor Wat.

The biggest addition to Tetris Plus is the Puzzle Mode. The console versions also have a two-player Versus Mode, which is essentially puzzle mode with two players racing for the finish line.


Also included is an editor for making Puzzle levels, and Link capability for competitive multiplayer in either game mode. Puzzle Mode is a twist on the classic gameplay that provides a new scenario. However, because the cartridge has battery-powered SRAM, it also has the ability to remember high-scores, unlike the original Game Boy game. Classic Mode functions like the original Tetris game for the Game Boy except with different music and visuals. The game consists of two main modes, Classic Mode and Puzzle Mode.
