Tetris

Tetris is a tile-matching puzzle video game designed by Alex Pajitnov in the Soviet Union on June 6 1984. Tetris and its many variants, are avaible for almost every consoles. The pieces used in tetris was originally named Tetriminos, and we're often used as puzzles in already 1904. Tetris was the first software entertainment game made for Pc. It was launched as a gameboy game in 1980. Tetris got the mark "Greatest game of all time" in 2007, and in january 2010 there was anounced that it had sold 100 million copies for cell phones alone since 2005.

Tetriminos are game pieces shaped like geometric shapes. A random piece falls down on the top of the screen, and you are going to use your arrow keys to controll them where they fit in. The point of the game is to make as much score as possible by making a row of ten by ten blocks without gaps. When you have reached the top of the rectangular screen, there will be no more falling pieces, and you have basically  completed the game, but in newer variants there is more lines and levels for players to complete (The originally one had only one level.) The more harder lines you complete without gaps the more points you will get.


Now in 2013 there have been made thousands of variants of Tetris, including Tetris Online/Multiplayer feature where the player with the most score won, and you can buy more colours for the Tetriminos.
