ティモ (Timo)

ティモ (Timo) is a game from Japan that mimics the videogame Tetris.

The game has a lot of wooden T shapes and two d6 dice and some components to aid play; a base plate, a measuring block and scoring sticks.

The dice are different. One shows the T shape but with a line in different places to show its orientation to the base. The other dice shows 1,1,1,1,2,3.

The rules allow two games, one to play Tetris and one for a balancing game. With the Tetris game, players take turns to roll the dice and place the shapes in a vertical stack, no wider than the base plate.
