iPod Tetris is a licensed Tetris® game for Fifth-Generation iPods with software version 1.2 or later, available for 4.99 USD or 600 yen from iTunes Music Store. It is of note that this game breaks many of the Tetris Company's guidelines, the largest difference being the lack of a hold function.

Gameplay

  • Rotate touch wheel: Shift sideways
  • Prev: Rotate counterclockwise
  • Next: Rotate clockwise
  • OK: Soft drop
  • Play: Hard drop
  • Pause: MENU
  • ARE: yes. Conjecture is that ARE compensates for the strange control scheme.
  • Initial: no
  • Hold: no
  • T-spin bonus: yes
  • T-spin detection: Unknown, but not "immobile" of TNT64, not "3-corner T" of TW and TDS
  • Back-to-back bonus: Tetris only, not T-spin
