This game has a similar concept as Loopz: Tetris-meets-Pipe Dream, but with some significant changes. First, the pieces don't just materialize, they come floating down, just as we are used from Tetris. Second, the pieces are all just one block, but they can be T-shaped, or contain a dead end. Thus the goal is not to arrange them in a loop, but just to have no open ends. The rest is more or less the same, including the bombs.

Trubis probably was the inspiration for Master of Bombs, one of the games in Interplay's Russian 6 Pak 1993, And it has been faithfully remade for Windows by a Russian programmer.
