This game isn't just addictive. It stays with you. It's poetry—art and math working together in magical synchronicity. It's...it's the perfect game.

It all began with a guy named Alexey Leonidovich Pajitnov, four years ago [1984]. By day, he worked as a programmer for the government at the Soviet Computer Science Center. But by night, he invented games for fun.

His computer, a Stone Age, Soviet peace of crap called an Electronika 60, didn’t even have a graphics card. His falling blocks were parentheses pushed together.

Alexey and a couple of buddies from work made the game IBM compatible. Which meant color graphics, 8-bit music and floppy disks that people copied and shared for free. It spread like wildfire.
