Tetris: The Grand Master

Arika's high-difficulty arcade Tetris series.

Tetris: The Grand Master is a series of puzzle arcade games developed by Arika. A competitive spin-off of Tetris, it uses a dan ranking system and speeds up as the levels rise. It draws on Sega's Japanese arcade Tetris, using a modified version of its rotation system, the same tetromino colors and a heavy reliance on lock delay.
