Download Blockout - DOS, Mac OS game

Imagine Tetris but in three dimensions and your brain slowly melting into a puddle of confusion. That is Blockout. You drop 3D shapes into a pit and try to line them up, but nothing fits the way you want it to. You rotate pieces on every axis and eventually just start praying. It is visually hypnotic and mentally exhausting in equal measure. If you ever wanted to feel like a futuristic warehouse robot with a mild panic disorder, this is your dream come true. When it clicks, it’s satisfying. When it doesn’t, welcome to the pit of despair. Literally.

The game is open-source and was ported to many platforms the original wasn't available before, like Windows, Ubuntu, and the OpenPandora handheld.
