    Just submitted a simple game to Apple.
    Basically it's an extended Tetris which support multiplayer game and customization of drop unit.
    I'm assuming that this doesn't violate Tetris' copyright, since I haven't use the 7 shape definitions of its drop units and any of its texture/music.

    Following is introduction of this game:

    A classic game that you'll recognize at the first sight, and it goes further. Enjoy the fighting with your friends and the freedom of customization/creation. It's easy and fun.

    [Features]
    + Support one-on-one fight via BlueTooth connection
    + Customize drop unit in 8x8 grid freely
    + Support OpenFeint leader board and achievement
    + Support tap or gesture control​

    @ElectricGrandpa: yeah, the play is much like the classic one. And, I'm making a lite version, will release soon.
