Tetris was first programmed by Alexey Pajitnov and Dmitry Pavlovsky, two computer engineers at the Computer Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 1985-86. The first game only had a 4 colors and a 320 x 200 resolution. Alexey came up with the Tetris idea, tetramino pieces falling into a glass. They also came up with other ideas but none as successful as Tetris.

1Multris (www.multris.com) This is the coolest Tetris game we have found on the net so far! It has not only got a very good game feel, but is is also multiplayer! It is very easy to log in to the game and start playing against other real persons. The graphics and sounds looks good as well. A bonus in this game is the live chat, very challenging to chat and play Tetris at the same time! Highly recommended!
