Blokken (Blocks[1]) is a Belgian quiz show based on the video game Tetris.
It is broadcast on VRT 1 and hosted by Belgian television personality Ben Crabbé.
The first contestant to buzz in with the correct answer picks up 10 points and drops 2 pieces on the game board.
If the contestant answers correctly, 10 points are awarded and he/she drops the pieces assigned to that question.
If the answer is correct, 50 points are awarded and the contestant can put 2 pieces on the board.
If a tie occurs at the end of the round, the host would ask one final question to both contestants.
If the first letter of the word is revealed, it will be highlighted (this was not the case in earlier seasons).
In addition, once the 120 seconds expire, the contestant is permitted a brief interval of time within which to make a guess.
If the contestant guesses the word correctly, they earn €1,000 (originally 40,000 Belgian francs) and can come back the next day to try again.
If the word is not found, they earn €250 (originally 10,000 Belgian francs) for each complete line on the board (which are recolored rather than cleared in this round), but must retire from the show.
