The game runs in a DOS emulator: keyboard and mouse work like on an old PC, each game has its own layout (see the hints in the game). There are no on-screen buttons on a phone.

First click the game screen once: after that the keys go to the game, not the page. To scroll the page again, click outside the game window. If the game does not respond, click the game screen again.

The game runs from the Internet Archive site in their emulator; there are no game files on our servers. We show it so you can get to know it; the rights to the game belong to the rights holders. The built-in player has no volume control: if there is no sound or you need to adjust it, open the game page on Internet Archive, which has sound and full-screen buttons.

Description

Towers is a timed puzzle game, where the object is to build as high a tower as possible, by filling out levels with bricks. There is limited time to build each level of the tower, and what you manage to build will be the base for the next level. There are a few different shaped bases to begin with, rectangular, diamond, of hollow bases.

The bricks come in odd shapes, like Tetris-shaped blocks lying down, and they are queued up so you have to place one before seeing the next shape. If a brick won't fit, you can discard it with a time penalty, and hopefully get a better brick-shape next. Ideally you should fill the entire floor to make a flat base for the next level. When the time runs out for the level, it is 'trimmed' and scored, and the next level begins, until the area is too small to continue. Each new level has increasing demands on time, and the minimum sized group of bricks required to continue upwards. After the game ends, either by you selecting to quit, or by the 'minimum group' demands exceeding the available floorspace, the tower is scored, you can end up in the hall of fame, if you managed to build higher than previous players. You can also admire the tower you built from eight different directions and from different distances, but this is not saved for posterity.
