Play ZAS Online
Dropping chunky blocks to clear lines, then sabotaging your opponent by dumping garbage on their screen—Tetris with a mean streak. That speed creep hits hard, and suddenly you're squinting at your Game Boy at 2 AM.
ZAS is a 1992 Game Boy release from T&E Soft, a company better known for its golf and Hydlide series. It arrived in an era when the handheld was flooded with puzzle games, but this one offered a different kind of spatial challenge, more about deliberate construction than frantic line clearing.
You control a small character who must build a path from the bottom of the screen to the exit at the top by rotating and placing a steady supply of falling blocks. The main objective is to reach the exit in each stage before your time runs out or you get crushed by the rising floor. The signature mechanics involve careful block placement to create a stable structure, often while managing limited space and awkward piece rotations. The pacing is methodical, even tense, as a single misplaced block can ruin your entire route. It feels like solving a quiet, persistent architectural puzzle under a subtle but constant threat.
