TetWiis is a Nintendo Wii Tetris clone, shamelessly based on the Nintendo DS version of Tetris. The more lines you get, the higher the score rewarded, but the faster the game gets! More score can be gained by going for double triple or quad clearances, and you are rewarded highly if you successfully attempt the back to back quad clearance! This is the classic 'marathon' mode of Tetris - play till you drop or run out of luck!

For every 10 lines you clear the level increases, along with the scores rewarded and the speed of the drop!

TetWiis is freeware, can be distributed freely and should never be charged for.
