Settris: Android's aquatic puzzle twist, not Tetris

Author : Scarlett Sep 24,2025

Strategically rotate and position blocks to completely fill the board

Choose between two distinct gameplay modes

Features soothing aquatic-themed visuals and relaxing background music

Have you ever imagined Tetris reimagined in an underwater setting with a slightly questionable name? Welcome to Settris - the answer to that peculiar mental image. This newly launched Android puzzler from Zoo Corporation bills itself as a meditative brain-training block arrangement game. Essentially, it's about fitting shapes into spaces - but without any time pressure.

A More Relaxed Approach to Block Puzzles

Make no mistake, Settris isn't trying to be an intense Tetris variant. You won't find rapidly falling blocks, punishing game-over scenarios from misplaced pieces, or heart-pounding electronic soundtracks. This experience is all about mindful, stress-free problem solving.

For puzzle enthusiasts seeking similar experiences, we've compiled a list of the top puzzle games currently available on Android.

The gameplay presents you with an empty grid and collection of uniquely shaped blocks (technically called polyominoes). Rotate them. Flip them. Methodically slide them into position to perfectly complete each puzzle. It combines elements of jigsaw puzzling, spatial reasoning challenges, and those "why didn't I see that obvious placement earlier?" moments.

Settris offers two core gameplay modes. The Stage Mode allows unlimited time to thoughtfully arrange each piece, with puzzles gradually increasing in complexity. Be prepared for those brain-teasing moments when the solution seems to defy logic.

For players wanting more intensity, Time Attack Mode challenges you to solve as many puzzles as possible within strict time limits. This faster-paced variant tests your ability to think quickly while maintaining accuracy, complete with motivating reminders when your pace starts lagging.

While it may not revolutionize the genre, Settris confidently delivers what it promises - an engaging block puzzle experience with a wink-and-nod naming convention that just might develop its own distinctive charm.
