As only two snakes will be in a given bag, a sequence of more than two snakes must cross the "seam" between bags. There are two "snake" tetrominoes, called S and Z. Tetris Worlds and Tetris Green, for instance, use a different randomizer in their Square modes, and TGM3 uses the TGM randomizer even when the game is set to "World" mode.

Not all guideline-compliant games use the Random Generator in all modes. The public beta of Tetris Online (Japan) used an 8-bag randomizer for the player. While the number of tetrominoes in a single bag is usually 7, some games use a different number. It can produce a maximum of 12 tetrominoes between one I and the next I, and a run of S and Z tetrominoes is limited to a maximum of 4.Įxception: In Random Generator as implemented in Tetris The Grand Master Ace, the first piece of the first bag is always I, J, L, or T, just as in the traditional TGM randomizer.ĭespite the generic sounding name, it is in fact a unique name that only refers to this particular algorithm. There are 7!, or 5,040, permutations of seven elements, and it is believed that Tetris assigns a nearly equal probability to each of these, making it much less likely that the player will get an obscenely long run without a desired tetromino. Then it deals all seven tetrominoes to the piece sequence before generating another bag. Random Generator generates a sequence of all seven one-sided tetrominoes (I, J, L, O, S, T, Z) permuted randomly, as if they were drawn from a bag. The Random Generator is BPS's name for the algorithm used to generate the sequence of tetrominoes in Tetris brand games that follow the Tetris Guideline.
