      The default behaviour is to block connection attempts from the pfSense WAN interface so connect wahtever interface you have configured as WAN to the internet.

        Probably meant blocking a local system from accessing the internet.  If that's what you want, add a block rule on LAN with the local system's IP as the source address and use LAN subnet for destination with the "not" checkbox checked.

          To build on what Efonne said, be sure that the block rule goes at the top of the list - above the pass all rule.
