Start by creating a `Board` class in Java, which will represent the Tetris grid. Then create `Tile` and `Tetrimino` classes to represent the pieces. Use a timer to drop pieces down and an event listener to handle user inputs (like rotating and moving pieces). Here's a detailed tutorial to help you get started: [Tetris in Java Tutorial](https://zetcode.com/javagames/tetris/)

Oh, the trials of coding Tetris! Basically, you need a game loop, a grid system, and methods to handle the movement and rotation of pieces. Brush up on your knowledge of 2D arrays in Java. Good luck!

You can create a basic Tetris clone by setting up a grid with a 2D array and updating it based on player inputs. Check out online resources or tutorials for more detailed guidance.

Just get a pre-made Java Tetris template and tinker with it. No need to reinvent the wheel unless you like suffering!

Get started with Java's Swing framework for the GUI. Implement game logic using a combination of 2D arrays and simple object-oriented programming principles. It's pretty involved but super rewarding!
