Free Tetris-style game for Mac
Quaterneo for Mac, by developer rologfos, is a free downloadable game. It's a classic puzzle game, with blocks of different shapes and colours that fall from the top of the screen. Your objective is to rotate and fit the shapes into the wall below. For more options in this genre, check out Tetris, Merge Mansion and NullpoMino. For other puzzle-like games for Mac but with a different twist, check out Bonesweeper or Legbreaker.
However, Quaterneo is different from most puzzle games. Once you've steered a piece to the bottom of the screen, you have to rotate it to clear the blocks around it. It sounds like a simple enough concept, but it requires an additional level of strategic thinking. Simply turning the blocks so they fit into the spaces below isn’t enough to concur this game.
Quaterneo is free to install. However, you do have the option of making voluntary payments if you'd like to support the developer’s ongoing work.

Play strategically
Quaterneo takes the classic Tetris puzzle game and revamps it into a new challenging puzzle game. The visuals and soundtrack are captivating, and the extra challenege of twisting the pieces once you've landed adds an extra layer of strategy.
It's a great time filler, especially if you're a fan of puzzle games.
