* ArrangeMode: Five [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris_Worlds variations]] on the classic formula, ranging from simply enabling gravity for stray pieces to the far-fetched "Fusion Tetris", whose goal is to combine as many 1×1 blocks as possible rather than clear lines. Players are slowly introduced to these game modes as they play the campaign.

* ExcusePlot: Which is still more plot than [[NoPlotNoProblem you usually get]] in a ''VideoGame/{{Tetris}}'' game. Apparently, the Minos (individual blocks that make up the iconic Tetriminos) are AnimateInanimateObjects, the Matrix (game area) is a "Tetrion", a device which serves as a gateway to other planets that can be opened by playing Tetris, and the Minos are using the Tetrions as a means of exodus from their soon-to-be-doomed home planet, Hadar 4.

A sequel wherein you get six different challenges, or "worlds". You play Tetris in your play area, or tetrion, to help the Minos escape. You must complete all six up to level 15 to get the GoldenEnding, and to access classic Tetris. The variants are as follows:

* Tetris: The classic game.
* Square Tetris: Tetris with double the goal, but you're allowed to combine tetrominos into squares. Clearing a line with part of a gold square, made of the same tetromino, in it, nets the player 10 bonus lines. Clearing a line with part of a silver square nets the player 5 bonus lines.
* Cascade Tetris: A variant wherein gravity is universal. Gravity is important to determining levels.
* Sticky Tetris: Clear the bottom line of "garbage blocks", but pieces of the same color stick together. Create a 25-square shape and it disappears instantly.
* Hotline Tetris: Six hotlines which are the only lines that count. Higher hotlines give more points.
* Fusion Tetris: Similar to Sticky Tetris, but with a "fusion block" in the bottom line, and you must fuse indestructible "atom blocks" with the "fusion block".

!!Tropes occurring in Tetris Worlds:

* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: Fusion and Sticky.
* WorldInTheSky: Hotline.
