Bastet

Bastet is a tetris clone that stand for Bastard Tetris. It based on Petris, a public domain Tetris clone by Peter Seidler, and developed by Federico Poloni, with a complete rewrite at version 0.43. It is licensed under GPLv3+. Version 0.37 was the first public release of the game. It is written in C++.

Gameplay
Unlike tetris, this game sends the player a piece that does not need rather than a random piece. Thus, it dramatically increases the difficulty of the game.

Reception
It was covered by slashdot, a popular computer and technology site.
