A Little Bit About Tetris |
This implementation of Tetris is known as 'N-blox' and was developed and provided by Neave Games to whom we are grateful. This version is fully licensed.
Tetris was first written in 1984 by Alexey Pajitnov of the Soviet Union and as a citizen of that country rights to the game were held by the state. Many versions of it were created for various home computer platforms at that time, but its mega-popularity became fully apparent when PC versions followed by a hand held Game Boy adaptation were wildy successful at the beginning of the 1990's.
Alexey Pajitnov regained the rights to his creation in 1996 and The Tetris Company was founded. Let's hope Alexy has been fully reimbursed for his masterpiece of design and game play.
Tetris found a new lease of life, along with many other retro arcade style games, when mobile phone manufacturers began including simple, but well proven highly playable and addictive games within their phone software.
Tetris has topped, or made the top three of many different polls and surveys to find the 'greatest' or 'most popular' game of all time.
By 2010 Tetris had sold 170 million copies, 100 million for cell phones alone, all around the world. Free versions such as n-blox here abound in the public domain and one can only guess at how many people have played the game at one time or another. Some estimates are in excess of 1 billion people, or more than 10% of people who have ever lived, at anytime, upon planet earth!
