Tetris was created by Russian software engineer Alexey Pajitnov in 1984 to test the capabilities of new hardware he was working with. He probably didn't expect it to become the worldwide sensation it is today!

Alexey Pajitnov developed Tetris during his time at the Soviet Academy of Sciences in Moscow, mainly as a fun project and to challenge his puzzle-solving skills. Guess it worked a bit too well!
