Tetris is perhaps the ultimate puzzle game: simple in design, endlessly addictive in execution. Since the 1980s, those colorful blocks – the tetrominoes – have been falling like an incessant rain from the digital sky. Your mission? Rotate, slide, and stack them as cleverly as possible to make entire lines disappear. The more you clear, the more points you score.
The beauty of Tetris is that everyone gets it instantly. Within seconds, you're in the flow, your eyes focused, your fingers racing to the buttons. And yet… the game keeps challenging you. Just when you think you've built the perfect tower, that one clumsy piece comes crashing down. Panic! Or pure satisfaction when that long-awaited straight bar appears and you conjure up four rows in one fell swoop: a Tetris.
What makes Tetris timeless is that it can be both relaxing and nerve-wracking. A meditation in pixels, but also an adrenaline rush in blocks. Whether you play for five minutes or five hours, Tetris always grabs you. A classic that never goes out of style.
Want to get stacking? One warning: you'll see those blocks everywhere afterward—even with your eyes closed.
