Cargo Hold

Cargo Hold is an alien-themed Tetris-style puzzle game. You're a dockworker aboard Admiral Xarkon's mothership, stacking exotic cargo pieces into the hold before the warp jump. The pieces are classic Tetromino shapes but themed as alien freight — plasma crates, crystal clusters, and energy coils. Stack them tight, clear lines, and see how many jumps you can survive.

How to Play

Rotate and move each incoming piece to slot it into the hold. Filling a complete horizontal row clears it and scores tonnage. The game ends when pieces stack up to the top of the hold. Each new jump (level) speeds up the drop rate.

• Keyboard: ◀ / A move left, ▶ / D move right, ▼ / S soft-drop, ▲ / W rotate, Space hard-drop.
• Touch: swipe left/right to move, swipe down to drop, tap to rotate.
• Next piece preview shows you the upcoming cargo so you can plan ahead.

Tips & Strategy

• Keep the floor flat. Tall uneven columns create holes that are nearly impossible to fill later.
• Work the I-piece. Save space for vertical slots — long straight pieces clear four rows at once for maximum tonnage.
• Don't rush rotations. Plan your rotation before the piece appears, not while it's already falling.
• Fill from the edges inward. It's easier to slide pieces under overhangs if the sides are clear.
