First of all on the bottom left there are single blocks to fill in any holes you may have.  There is also a meter above it that when it fills you get another piece.  Some pieces that you see will have a 2X 3X etc... those give you extra points plus single blocks it you succesfully use them.  Four row eliminations give you the mose points just like in tetris.  When there are 2 trains to load focus on only one at a time.  The timers do not start until you place a piece in so when you get the 1st train done go to the other... same thing applies when you have to make 2 pictures per train.  for example do the left one first when your done do the right one... the new ones that come start with one the timers stop when the pictures are completed but only one timer will be going aws long as the train is empty.  Try not to get youself in a hole by discarding pieces they add 5sec to your time per piece.  If you found this useful please click the smiley face thank-you

I didn't realize that about the timers, I always try to work both trains together. I guess I won't be doing that any more!

To get higher scores, try to build up 3 or 4 rows with an empty column, then fill in with a 3-block bar or 4-block bar. The more rows you complete at a time, the bigger the bonus.

Cherish the small blocks - if they are finished and your moves run out = game over!

Did you know that you can pause this game??  All you have to do is click the 'help' button on the bottom right hand side of the game!  Comes in real handy incase of a phone call or suddenly needed potty break!

Thanks for the tips especially the time and pause tips. It also helps if you can fill in by rows that way you fill in without having to use your single blocks, it worked for me. Thanks everyone, smileys for you!!!

oh and don't use your long blocks (4 in a row) unless you really need to. Same goes for the 2-in-a-row blocks and the single block.

This is a great help.  And thanks to the person who told me how to pause it, I love a game that you can pause in case you get instant messages and things.  Thanks!
