To display the tetris game on a page, insert:
{{{tetris()}}}
If you want to show your visitors the rules of Tetris, you can create a hidding
page with the name Tetris_Rules whose contents will be shown in the Rules
tab of the Tetris widget. Consider to just place a link to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris#Gameplay or a similar site there.
To play tetris, JavaScript has to be enabled in the browser of the visitor.
It is trivial for hackers to manipulate the highscores without actually scoring them through game play. But this poses no real security issue, as the size of the highscore database is restricted.

Tetris_XH is based on Tetris with jQuery by Franck Marcia. Many thanks to him for developing this nice and simple implementation of Tetris and releasing the code under an open source license.
The plugin icon is designed by AtuX. Many thanks for publishing this icon under a liberal license.
Many thanks to the community at the CMSimple_XH Forum for tips, suggestions and testing. Particularly I want to thank Gert and oldnema for their suggestions to improve Tetris_XH. And I have to apologize to bca, who tested the online demo first, but was not able to save his highscore because of a bug in the plugin.
Many thanks to Luda Wieland who pointed out that the highscores could not be
written on installations in a UserDir and helped with debugging the problem.
And last but not least many thanks to Peter Harteg, the “father” of CMSimple, and all developers of CMSimple_XH without whom this amazing CMS would not exist.
