You're Never Going to Beat "Tetris". Sorry. You Might be Asking Why I'm so Pessimistic and Even though, that's Perfectly Natural, PBS' Game/Show will Back me Up here. While the 7 Multicolored Falling Bricks (Officially Called, "Tetrominoes") All Fit Together Pretty Nicely, they Only Occupy a Space that's 8 Tiles Wide, When Fully Combined. Coupled with the Size of the Playing Space -- the "Well", as it's Called, is 10 Tiles Wide -- there's Always Going to be Room for Screw-Ups that are Out of your Control. There's a Ton of Math, Studies of Probability and Statistics to Explain it All, too.
As Host, Jamin Warren Tells it (Citing a Research Paper from 1996), Failure is Due in No Small Part to How the "Bag" Randomly Generates Pieces that're Dropping. Over a Long Enough Game, the Bag's Going to Screw you Over and Drop Tetrominoes that Make Gaps that you Won't be Able to Fill. Specifically, a Nasty Run of "S" and "Z" Shaped Pieces that'll Ruin your Up-to-that-Point Ideal Flow is Pretty Much Inevitable -- and Even Playing a Game Exclusively with the Aforementioned Pieces would Hit a Fail State in 70,000 Turns. It's a Cruel Joke, Sure but, that Hasn't Stopped the Game from Appearing on Countless Platforms, Sides of Buildings or T-Shirts for almost 31 Years.
