About this game

Tetris, developed by Bullet-Proof Software, was the first licensed Tetris game to be released commercially in Japan. It was released on most of the common home computers from the era.

The original version of Tetris was created by Alexey Pajitnov for the Elektronika-60 computer. It was never released commercially. It was also playable on the successor DVK-1 and DVK-2 computers, although it is unknown whether that is a different version, or simply the same code running on a different computer. Minor visual differences are present, but the gameplay is the exact same.
