Game size:

   Porntris is a Tetris clone with an adult theme. The player must re-arrange the falling blocks, by rotating and moving them, so that full lines are created, which will then vanish. Over the course of the game, the speed of the falling blocks will increase.

Porntris (DOS)

   In Porntris, the player does not get points for removing rows, but with every line a bit of a 'porn video' (more like an animated GIF, short, endless mode, max. 64 KB per 'video') will appear on the right side. Once the video is fully revealed, the level completes. The game contained only 4 levels and therefore only 4 short video sequences, and unlike the similar game Sextris, it was easy to finish it to the end. If you successfully completed the 4th level, you could continue again from the first one. A small flaw in the beauty of this game was the fact that the falling blocks in the game rotated sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right. It was OK with block type I or Z dice, but it was quite annoying with type T, L or J dice. Also the game did not differentiate between J and L shaped blocks by color, and both of these shapes are in the same color (green). Another shortcoming compared to other Tetris clones was the fact that you can't see the next cube and thus you can't think two moves ahead.
   Porntris was released in 1993 by the Belgian company Image Line Entertainment Software, which changed its name to simply Image Line Software in 1994. Today, this company deals almost exclusively with music software, but at the beginning of the 90s, several games for adult audience were created in the hands of its young programmers. We can mention, for example, the games PornPipe or Mozaik. All these legendary porn games were distributed on diskettes through advertisements in the ad section of Computer Magazine. Porntris celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2023, but even today it is still a source of entertainment not only for those players who grew up in the 90s of the last century.

All DOS games were controlled directly from the PC keyboard. Some newer DOS games also used a mouse or other more advanced game peripherals for control. However, each game was controlled by different keys. You can find a detailed description of how to control this version of Porntris in the attached game manual. An overview of basic keyboard commands and keyboard shortcuts to control this game is summarized in the following table:
 

Keys	Action
← →	Press left or right to move block in the same direction.
↓	Press down to make the block fall down faster.
↑	Press up to rotate falling block 90°.
Esc	Quit game

This ver­sion of Porntris was de­sig­ned for per­so­nal com­pu­ters with o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem MS-DOS (Mi­cro­soft Disk O­pe­ra­ting Sys­tem), which was o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem de­ve­lo­ped by Mi­cro­soft in 1981. It was the most wi­de­ly-used o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem in the first half of the 1990s. MS-DOS was sup­plied with most of the IBM com­pu­ters that pur­cha­sed a li­cen­se from Mi­cro­soft. Af­ter 1995, it was pu­s­hed out by a gra­phi­cal­ly mo­re ad­van­ced sys­tem - Win­dows and its de­ve­lop­ment was ce­a­sed in 2000. At the ti­me of its grea­test fa­me, se­ve­ral thou­sand ga­mes de­sig­ned spe­ci­fi­cal­ly for com­pu­ters with this sys­tem we­re cre­a­ted. To­day, its de­ve­lop­ment is no lon­ger con­ti­nue and for e­mu­la­tion the free DOSBox e­mu­la­tor is most of­ten used. Mo­re in­for­ma­ti­on about MS-DOS operating system can be found here.
