Tetris Murders? Just a tragic incident in 1998 involving Vladimir Pokhilko's family. Dark side of a bright game, sadly.

The Tetris Murders refer to the tragic 1998 deaths of Vladimir Pokhilko and his family. Pokhilko, a key figure in the development of Tetris, was found dead alongside his wife and son in their California home. The case was treated as a murder-suicide.

I remember reading about the Tetris Murders back in 1998. Vladimir Pokhilko, who contributed to Tetris, was involved in what was ruled a murder-suicide with his family. Really shocking at the time.
