The Story of Tetris (and an intriguing story it is!)

 

Back in 1989 we bought the game Tetris for the arcade.

It didn't do as well as we'd hoped because I became hooked on it and kept playing it - which meant no-one else could.

It took me a while to work out why it wasn't doing as well as I thought it would (I can be a bit slow on the uptake).

Once I stopped playing on it and gave others the chance, it more than lived up to expectations!

It was a great game. What I didn't realise was the story behind it.

I watched this documentary about it today and have to say it was intriguing and is well worth a watch.
