This seems to be a Tetris Clone for both PC, mobile devices, and Surface tabs.
Not sure how good it is as I have not played it but really how much can one mess up with a Tetris clone?? ;-)
As is clear from the description programmed by non native English speakers so don't expect perfect English in game (which should be irrelevant though as everyone knows Tetris and how to play it).

From the website:

It is the world most attractive puzzle game, many people play Block vs Block II day by day never stop.

How to play this game? We are no need to explain. Everyone know it.

We offer a very powerful AI player playing with you.

Five years ago, we develop a First Generation game "Block vs Block", which has over 5 million download. This game "Block vs Block II" is improved version, we have rewritten everything. This game is using different game engine and we improve the graphic and AI.

Enjoy!

    Tetris.com has official Tetris for free in browser and mobile apps. Why play a clone?

    • Lysander on 07/09/2020 - 17:24

      Possibly different or more game modes. And download onto PC with no internet needed to play.

      • Gehirn on 07/09/2020 - 17:27

        Requires internet connection according to reviews elsewhere. And it has the same modes as regular Tetris games.

          Well, then we have to fall back to the core Ozbargain mantra: Free is Free! ;-)

            @Lysander: Garbage is free too.
            Why post something you have no idea about? Every app store is full of generic clones that discount to free every week to imply value.

              @Gehirn: Apparently garbage is not free:

              https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/544885

              Your question then also goes back to you as well: why post those things you have no idea about?

                @Lysander: I bought both of those.
                Do you want a review?

                  @Gehirn: Well, I bought the game too. Did you buy them and then posted the deal cause then you had no idea about those two items, did you?
                  Der Benutzername "Gehirn" ist wohl nicht hunderprozentig zutreffend. ;-)

                    @Lysander: For the Bluetooth speaker you can refer to my comment 40 minutes after posting the deal where I answer a question from my experience of owning it.
                    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/4051158/redir

                    And for the RC Car what more do I need to say on a deal that had 15,000 clicks, sold out and had many comments in its prior listing.
                    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/509265

                    I don't think I need to reiterate that you were the one that said this game had more features and no need for internet connection despite the opposite being true.

                      @Gehirn: I said "Possibly" and that is a big difference.
                      Just because the car was sold out does not mean it was not garbage.
                      The Tesla deal had huge upvotes (and even more clicks) and I doubt anyone even bought it.
                      As for the Bluetooth speaker, after three exchanges and they all broke, we gave up so from my perspective they were even less useful than most garbage as I could not even burn them.

                      As my Grandma used to say: just because millions of fly love and eat horsepoo does not mean it is good and we should try it.

              @Gehirn: Yo, there was a big pile of stuff up the road when I went to the shop before in this dude's hard rubbish. Could have been something good in there, but I didn't post because there was the rule of needing at least 10 stock.

              Edit: the dude's new comment came up then, I'll be real, I would (profanity) love a bike speaker. And the little toy lambo is probs cool for the kids, my dad bought almost the exact same thing a few years ago for my kiddo, cost him around 20 bucks.

              • Lysander on 07/09/2020 - 17:46

                @TheDukeOfNukem: There is/was a place here where can put deals with a quantity less than 10. Go for it.

                  @Lysander: Look I'll be entirely honest, I'm here for the lulz, but if this had have been a UWP game that worked on Xbox I might have grabbed it, but as far as PC and tablet games go, there's a million, and a million better, Tetris clones, this really didn't need to be posted is all.

                  • Lysander on 07/09/2020 - 17:53

                    @TheDukeOfNukem: While this may be the case, if I go by the standard of what is not necessary to be posted beacuse it is superfluous or there are a million of other choices, then Ozbargain would be left with about 10% of its current deals.
                    However, because I realise other people have a different view and hence I am fine with it.
                    The first game by these guys had 5 million downloads - there won't be too many of the million other clones that have those numbers so the game can't be that bad.
                    I have looked at some of the clones on the Play Store - if they are free they have IAP. This one does not and for me that is a plus.

                    • TheDukeOfNukem on 07/09/2020 - 17:55

                      @Lysander: I miss Tetraminos, man. That was one of the clones for the PSP Minis line, it had a few different modes, it was 2 bucks, it was super quick, and it was a blast. Tetris for me, idk if it's the Game Boy association the series has or what, but I only really wanna play it on a portable.

                      • Lysander on 07/09/2020 - 18:04

                        @TheDukeOfNukem: The original was hard on the eyes after a while. For me the colour version is better.
                        But these days, if I want to play an addictive simple game, I go with Bejeweled 3.

                      @Lysander: I really doubt it had 5 million downloads when the first game only says 100k on the app store, as well as.

                      "UnknownProjectX is an Android game developer that has been active since 2014. The current app portfolio contains 53 games. Overall, we estimate that UnknownProjectX's apps have collected about 6 million installs, 20 thousand of them in the last 30 days."

                      I don't think it adds up even with whatever number the Microsoft store had.

                      • Lysander on 07/09/2020 - 18:05

                        @Gehirn: If we go this route and I start questioning whatever anyone writes, then really there is no need anymore for any such things here or any kind of info on product pages - it could all be made up.
                        In some cases it is - see the latest Amazon stunt in the UK - but I think I am happy to give them the benefit of the doubt.

    I think you are all arguing about the wrong issues here. The thumbnail of the gameis the main issue here. The bottom two rows of blocks cannot exist if they form a complete row!

    Thanks OP. Keep it with up your posts. We all get the good and bad, then learn and move on :).
