    TIL Tetris is from USSR. Aswell as that the pieces in it are called tetrominos.

          The first version I played was the Commodore 64 version by Mirrorsoft, which actually didn’t use the Russian imagery.

          The soundtrack was an epic 25 minute synth prog metal odyssey.

          Commodore 64 is a very cool computer.
