# crack-attack(1)

multiplayer OpenGL puzzle game like "Tetris Attack"

## NAME

Crack Attack! — multiplayer OpenGL puzzle game like "Tetris Attack"

## SYNOPSIS

**crack-attack** { {--server *PORT*  \| -X  \| --wait }  {*SERVER*  \| -X }  {--solo  \| -X } }  \[--name *NAME*\]

## Description

**Crack Attack** is roughly based on the Super Nintendo game  "Tetris Attack".  Slowly, your stack of colored blocks grows from the  bottom, and you've got to make sure it never reaches the top. If it  does, you lose. To eliminate blocks from the stack, line up at least  three of one color, horizontally or vertically. Once you do, those  blocks disappear, and put off slightly your inevitable demise.

Crack Attack essentially requires hardware acceleration.  For  XFree users, this means you want DRI.
