About 9x9 Rotate and Flip
This is a 9x9 grid block game. You must fit the pieces to make horizontal or vertical matches. There are three game modes: 'Classic': Make as many rows and columns as possible to score. You will lose the game if you don't have more spaces to fit the pieces; 'By time': You lose when your time's up. But you can gain extra time by destroying rows or columns that have the power-up Time.; and Bombs: Destroy rows or columns with bombs to defuse them. If any bomb explode you lose!
