Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of Tetris, didn't initially make much money from the game because he was working for the Soviet government. They owned the rights. It wasn't until the mid-'90s that he started to earn royalties when he co-founded The Tetris Company.

Sadly, Pajitnov didn't make a dime from Tetris in the early years due to the Soviet Union鈥檚 policies. But don't worry, he's doing well now!

Pajitnov didn't see significant money from Tetris until about a decade after he invented the game. Initially, the Soviet Union reaped the benefits.
