Online Tetris Game
This online tetris game is a variant of the classic video puzzle. In this version you have to use the shapes provided as they become available to make up full lines across the grid. When all the boxes on each line are filled, that line will disappear and the now empty boxes can be used again. As ever with tetris, the longer you play the harder it gets to fit the tetris pieces together properly, but it's a fun game to play. Just keep going until there are no more moves to make. The game will keep a record of your best score, so try and improve it each time and don't let go of the piece you are moving until you're sure it's in the right place!
The game of modern day Tetris began with a puzzle-loving software engineer named Alexey Pajitnov, who created "Tetris" in 1984 while working at a research and development center in Moscow created by the government. These early players copied and shared "Tetris" on floppy disks, and the game quickly spread across Moscow. When Pajitnov sent a copy to a colleague in Hungary, and it came to the attention of Robert Stein, owner of Andromeda Software Ltd., who was visiting the exhibit from the United Kingdom and later "Tetris" was the first software created in the Soviet Union to be sold in America. |
