How to Start a Tetris Game from Your Pause Menu

Access the Game Quickly

While playing in your world, press ESC to open the pause menu. You'll see a new button added by Tetris Craft Mod. Click it to launch a Tetris match without leaving your world or closing the game.

Why Use This Feature

This is perfect when you need a break from mining, building, or exploring. You can play a quick round while staying in a safe location—no need to find shelter or worry about mobs. When you're done, simply close the Tetris window to return to your exact position in the world.

Controls During Play

Use W, A, S, D or Arrow Keys to move and rotate your falling blocks. The game follows classic Tetris rules: clear complete lines to earn points and prevent the board from filling up. As you progress through levels, blocks fall faster, increasing the difficulty.

This feature works seamlessly whether you're in the Nether, the End, or the Overworld—your world stays paused the entire time you're playing.
