'''''Tetris DS Puzzle Mode''''' is the name given to an online {{wp|Adobe Flash|Flash}} advergame that appeared on the [[Nintendo Arcade]] section of [[Nintendo]]'s official website, where it was simply listed as '''''[[Tetris DS]]'''''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070911004647/http://www.nintendo.com/arcade Nintendo Arcade]. ''nintendo.com''. Archived September 11, 2007 via Wayback Machine. Retrieved December 27, 2017.</ref> It is meant to function as a demo for the [[Nintendo DS]] title of the same name, specifically its [[Tetris DS#Puzzle|Puzzle]] mode.

The game is themed after ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', using graphics of clouds, hills and [[Semisolid Platform|colored blocks]] from that game to compose the background. Two [[Yoshi (species)|Green Yoshis]] using sprites from ''[[Yoshi's Cookie]]'' hold a big sign showing the level currently being played, and another one peeks from behind the game board.

Similarly to a game of ''{{wp|Tetris}}'', the goal in this game is to clear several rows of blocks by using two {{wp|Tetromino|tetriminos}} in the intended order. The player must first select the tetrimino, then choose a viable position to fit the gap in the blocks; the tetrimino will then automatically fall into the gap. <span style="color:#3366FF">Straight</span> and <span style="color:red>Z-shaped</span> tetriminos only have two possible positions to choose from, while the rest (<span style="color:blue>J</span>-, <span style="color:orange>L</span>-, and <span style="color:purple">T</span>-shaped) have four. If the player mistakes a selection, they can choose to retry the level, or go back to the level menu.
