Trivia
- The correct plural of tetromino in a mathematical context is "tetrominoes", but the Tetris franchise refers to them as "tetriminos" instead, making the event's title grammatically incorrect but correct in relation to the Tetris universe.
- Attack of the Tetriminos! is the first Spirit Board event released after the version 4.0.0 update to be followed by another Spirit Board event rather than an Event Tourney.
- Attack of the Tetriminos! is the first Spirit Board event based on a non-playable universe to come with more than 4 new spirits.
