  • Fever: The player must get as many points as possible in only a minute of time. Racking up a certain number of points as quickly as possible earns the player color bonuses which when used, alter the gameplay and rack up extra points.
  • Computer Battle: The player competes against computer players where clearing lines floods the opponent's area with garbage blocks that can only be eliminated by clearing them.
  • Marathon: The standard mode of gameplay.
  • Survival: The player plays in an extra-narrow area while blocks are constantly rising up from the bottom. The game ends if the stack of blocks rises to the top.

    • Party Modes

  • Jigsaw: Every piece contains a part of a picture and the piece must be correctly oriented before it is dropped into place.
  • Shadow Wide: There is a picture shadowed out on the lower screen and the pieces must be dropped in to reveal it.
  • Fit: The pieces are flying continuously at a wall with a hole cut out in it and the shapes must be moved to fit through the hole or else crash into the wall.
  • Tower Climber: Similar to the tower climber mode in Tetris Party except that the tower is now a 3D cylinder.
  • Bombliss Plus: Based on the Bombliss variant, every piece has a bomb inside and clearing a row containing one makes it explode and clear out all surrounding pieces.
  • Stage Racer: Similar to the stage racer mode in Tetris Party, the player must guide a single piece through a continuously moving obstacle course, with the game ending if the piece hits the top.
  • Capture: Colored stars are hidden within the playfield and the player can only remove them by touching them with blocks of the same color.
  • Master Mode: A variant of the standard mode where the pieces appear on the field instantly instead of falling down.
  • Sprint: The player must clear 40 lines in as little time as possible.

    • AR Modes

  • AR Marathon: The player must clear 50 lines as fast as possible. Some block contain bombs which shift the field if activated, requiring the player to move the system to reorient it.
  • AR Climber: Similar to the Tower Climber mode except the player must manually rotate the tower.
