Designer victorvey300 submitted a LEGO Idea in the form of the Tetris Solid set. It is a real-world Tetris set game that is built using LEGO pieces. This unique set incorporates elements of the video game into tangible pieces and comes in a small case.
It opens up to unveil LEGO bricks that are placed along the vertical lanes in which the small tetrominoes can fall downwards into the position. The rollable treadmill along the right side showcases the upcoming brick that will be slid in next. This challenges players to think fast on their feet -- however, when a line in complete, it cannot disappear as it would in the video game. The goal is to leave as little gaps in the game as possible.
