Is there a standard Tetris mesh size?

Question

I, like many other programmers, are building a Tetris clone. But the fact is that I try my best, and I know, maybe this is not an important detail; but I want to know if there is a standard size for the grid.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

In accordance with the Tetris Concept Wiki directive, http://tetris.wikia.com/wiki/Tetris_Guideline , the playing field has a width of 10 cells and at least 22 cells, with the top two hidden.

Answer 2

Standard mesh size - 10x20

Answer 3

I looked at the English Wikipedia page about Tetris, and there you can find some images directly from some games. These images have a tetris board with the following sizes (visual, without hidden counting):

1986 IBM PC Version: 10x20

TETYAIS: Soviet game of the mind: 10x20

Official NES Version: 10x20

Tetris (iPod): 10x20

I think it is very easy to see which size is mostly common. But if your board does not fill the free space, just enter a few more lines.

Answer 4

The original game was 10 to 20.

Answer 5

This is an important detail, but not necessary. Even if you are building a clone, why not “do it yourself” and roll over? The easiest way would be to make it a custom size that can even be refreshing.
