Lettris
Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

The Casino de Charlevoix is located in Pointe-au-Pic, now part of La Malbaie, about 150 kilometres (93 mi) east of Quebec City. The historic Manoir Richelieu is located right next to the casino. Charlevoix is a very popular tourist destination because of its location, next to the Saint Lawrence River and the Laurentian mountains.

History
Original Le Manoir Richelieu c.1899
Le Manoir Richelieu
Inaugurated June 24, 1994 the Casino de Charlevoix was established in the Manoir Richelieu's former summer playhouse on the cliffs of Pointe-au-Pic, a panoramic site visited by vacationers for over a century.
The current hotel was built in 1928-1929 using Châteauesque style by architect John Archibald to replace the original 250 room structure (1899) that was destroyed in a fire.[1]
Owned by Canada Steamship Lines, it was sold in 1966 to Warnock Hersey; in 1971 the hotel was sold to Irish football star John Dempsey, then to provincial government in 1975 and Raymond Malenfant in 1986.
In 1998 Loto-Québec teamed up with Canadian Pacific Hotels and the Solidarity Fund QFL to acquire the Manoir Richelieu (now called Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu), renovate it and expand the Casino de Charlevoix. Reopening in June 1999, the complex has since become a world-class resort. The Casino de Charlevoix also became the first of Québec's casinos to be linked to a hotel.
Facts and Figures
The Casino de Charlevoix offers more than 20 gaming tables and 800 slot machines.
Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu is a hotel with 405 rooms, a Conference Center which accommodate over 1,000 people, a spa, a health club, two all-season outdoor pools and a 27-hole golf course.
During the 2005-2006 fiscal year, the Casino de Charlevoix generated annual sales totalling $47.6 million and received 1 million visitors.[2]
