WARNING: EPILEPSY AND SEIZURES  
READ BEFORE OPERATING YOUR PLAY TV  
A few people may experience epileptic seizures when viewing flashing  
lights or patterns in our daily environment. These persons may experi-  
ence seizures while watching TV pictures or playing video games. Play-  
ers who have not had any seizures may nonetheless have an undetec-  
ted epileptic condition.  
PLAYING FAMILY TETRIS  
If your Family Tetris is connected to your TV, turn on the TV, then set  
the TV to the appropriate video input mode (see set-up section of this  
manual). If your Family Tetris is connected to your TV through a VCR,  
turn on the TV and VCR, then set both the TV and VCR to the appropri-  
ate video input modes (see set-up section of this manual). Next, turn on  
the power to your Family Tetris by sliding the POWER BUTTON on the  
controller. After a brief start-up animation, the Main Menu will appear  
on the TV screen.  
Consult your physician before playing video games if you have an  
epileptic condition or experience any of the following symptoms while  
playing video games: altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, other  
involuntary movements, loss of awareness of your surroundings, mental  
confusion and/or convulsions.  
Family Tetris is a unique game that allows both children and adults to  
play cooperatively, at any skill level. The object is to position the falling  
Tetriminos across the bottom of the Matrix in order to create a solid  
line with no empty spaces. Tetriminos are the 7 shapes created from  
4 blocks (Minos) joined together, and can be rotated or moved as they  
fall. When an entire horizontal line fills with Minos, the line clears from  
the Matrix. If lines are not completely filled with Minos, they will not  
clear from the Matrix, and the Tetriminos will continue to stack up higher  
and higher. If the stack of Tetriminos reaches the top of the Matrix, the  
game is over!  
Using the directional buttons on the Main Unit, you will be able to scroll  
through the different game modes you can choose from. Once the  
game mode you wish to play is highlighted press the Start button.  
MAIN MENU  
SETTING UP  
BATTERY INSTALLATION  
On the back of the controller, remove the battery compartment door  
and insert four (4) “AA” (LR6) batteries as indicated inside the compart-  
ment (alkaline batteries recommended). Replace the battery compart-  
ment door. Do not over-tighten.  
Family Tetris features five Tetris variants:  
1) Family: Cooperate to clear each level!  
Summary:  
One or two players (each in their own Matrix) contribute Line Clears  
toward the Goal throughout 15 levels, in the fastest overall time.  
NOTE: Batteries in the controller should give you about 10 hours of  
game play (if alkaline batteries are used). The game will not oper-  
ate normally when the batteries begin to run low. The screen may be  
blurred and resetting the game may not work. Be sure to install fresh  
batteries. There is also no memory function. All game data will be  
erased when the power is turned off or batteries are replaced.  
Goal per level = 10 lines. (5 lines if both players using 1 block)  
2) Race: How fast can you clear 40 lines?  
Summary:  
One or two players (each in their own Matrix) contribute Line Clears  
toward the Goal of 40, in the fastest overall time.  
3) Marathon: Go for a great score!  
Summary:  
The goal is to complete all 15 levels (150 lines in total) to get the most  
points possible. There is no time limit.  
Goal per level = 10 lines.  
ADULT SUPERVISION IS RECOMMENDED WHEN INSTALLING  
BATTERIES.  
4) Dig: Clear the bottom line!  
Summary:  
The goal is for one or two players, at either 3 or 4-Block Tetrimino sizes,  
to complete 15 “Digs” either alone or by cooperatively “digging” to the  
bottom through a progressively deeper broken line pile, and then clear-  
ing the bottom line. Each bottom line clear by either person contributes  
one dig, until at 15 digs, the game is over.  
CONNECTING TO YOUR TV  
To connect Family Tetris directly to a TV, the TV must be equipped with  
audio and video input jacks. They are commonly found on the front of  
the TV near the contrast, color, and picture adjustment controls; or on  
the back of the TV near the antenna and cable/satellite jacks.  
2P mode has both players trying to reach the bottom and clear the  
bottom line, however each grid is played independently and when one  
person clears they contribute a “dig” toward the 15 dig total, and only  
their broken line pile increases, while the other player continues. This al-  
lows both players to play at their own pace while trying to complete the  
game in the fastest time and maintain an increasing challenge.  
Insert the yellow video plug from the game into the Video-In (yellow)  
jack on the TV.  
Insert the white audio plug from the game into the left Audio-In (white)  
jack on the TV.  
Set your TV to the appropriate video input mode. (See your TV’s operat-  
ing manual for details.)  
5) Versus: Compete against another player!  
Summary:  
For two players only using 4-Block Tetriminos, both players attempt to  
clear lines in order to send new lines into their opponent’s matrix. The  
player to outlast or cause the other player to reach the top of the Matrix  
wins! The winner of the match is the first player to win two of three games.  
CONNECTING TO YOUR VCR  
If your TV doesn’t have audio and video input jacks, you can connect  
Family Tetris to your VCR.  
Insert the yellow video plug from the game into the Video-In (yellow)  
jack on the VCR.

purchased separately at any electronics store.  
PRACTICE MODE  
In all variants except “Versus”, when two players are playing and one  
of them reaches the top, their game is only temporarily over. They enter  
into practice mode and are able to play (without contributing toward  
the goal) until the opposite player reaches the goal, at which point both
