HOW TO PLAY
Face Controls
Eyebrow Tetris uses your camera to detect facial expressions. Here are the gestures you'll need to master:
Raise Left Eyebrow
Move piece left
Raise just your left eyebrow while keeping your right eyebrow relaxed
Raise Right Eyebrow
Move piece right
Raise just your right eyebrow while keeping your left eyebrow relaxed
Raise Both Eyebrows
Rotate piece
Raise both eyebrows at the same time to rotate the current piece
Open Mouth
Soft drop
Open your mouth to drop the piece faster (accelerates the longer you hold)
Both Brows + Mouth
Hard drop
Raise both eyebrows and open your mouth to instantly drop the piece to the bottom
Keyboard Controls
You can also use your keyboard as a backup or combine it with face controls:
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
← / A | Move left |
→ / D | Move right |
↑ / W | Rotate |
↓ / S | Soft drop |
Space | Hard drop |
P | Pause game |
Tips for Best Results
1. Good Lighting
Make sure your face is well-lit, preferably with light coming from in front of you. Avoid backlighting (bright windows behind you).
2. Face the Camera
Position yourself so your full face is visible in the camera. The detection works best when you're looking directly at the screen.
3. Exaggerate Movements
Don't be subtle! Raise your eyebrows high and open your mouth wide. The gestures need to be clear for reliable detection.
4. Watch the Feedback
The control feedback panel (top-left during gameplay) shows what the game is detecting. Use it to calibrate your expressions.
5. Practice Individual Eyebrows
Moving one eyebrow at a time can be tricky! Practice raising each eyebrow independently. If it's too hard, you can always use keyboard controls.
