TETRIS....and the weird story behind it
                   

Tetris is 34 years in existence, being a tile-matching video game, designed and programmed by Russian Alexey Pajitnov. The name comes from the Greek numerical prefix tetra- and tennis.
Tetris must be one of the weirdest stories in video gaming history – roping in such unlikely 80s and 90s people such as Mikhail Gorbachev, Robert Maxwell and Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber.
