Proposal: The name for games in the same category as Tetris, Dr. Mario, and other games involving blocks falling from above that you position is "Tetrisoid"

@Felthry I never did like the term "puzzle game" because it's so broad

Portal is undeniably a puzzle game, but doesn't have much in common with Tetris

@connie in our opinion, puzzle games should not include games that are structured as a race against the clock. when we think puzzle we think of sitting back and carefully considering options before making a move
