Tetris blocks rules
So, I went down to the swamp, did the very basic tetris tutorials, moved the platform to the other end where the red grids show up and can't do the first one.

From what I understand, tetris blocks you draw can share the same enclosure, as long as the volume / number of blocks is right, they cannot be rotated and they cannot overlap / share the same block.

Even with all that in mind, I can't do this one:

Any hints, am I missing any rules?

"Start one step to the right" doesn't make much sense to me, but knowing there are no hidden rules outside of those of the nearby regular red board puzzles should be enough. I hope... :D

Urgh, NO, just NO.

There is either a hidden rule or this is unsolvable.

Given "no rotation" and the very spaced-apart nature of the obligatory blocks to include, I don't think this is doable. I tried placing every of the three shapes to include every of the three corner points and it never connects.

Can someone clue me in a little more before I just open a solution spoiler? It has been HOURS, still stuck, I drew about 20 grids and filled them with all possible configurations of the blocks that include the 3 corners and nothing is a valid, traceable solution.

Shapes don't have to touch.

There is indeed a solution and it's the simplest solution you can imagine.

Am I not supposed to include all of them in a shared volume / area that I circle with the dot?

Just go to the swamp tutorials that you completed and look at them.

Sweet Jesus, how you taunt and tease! :D

Allright, I will go have another look when I get back from work and see if I can infer anything meaningful and relevant to this big grid.

Basically, a shared volume/area has to have exactly enough room for all the shape icons inside it. You can have multiple seperate areas, but each area with shape icons must exactly fit the shapes for the icons within it.

There's the catch then! I would not have seen it even if I went back to the tutorials as I did them all with "one volume fits all shapes", I did not know I could cut off individual areas, disconnected from one another, that include the shapes and have a valid solution with that!

Thanks, Platoon Sarge!

You cannot solve this one with one volume: http://i.imgur.com/aPRHUab.jpg

You guys are the best! Thanks! I was looking at the tutorials and it was not clicking for me! :D

The previous red boards got me used to "one volume fits all" and my brain somehow disregarded this! :D
