June 6, 2009 — Google celebrated the 25th anniversary of Tetris today with this illustration on the Google home. Google Australia, China and some other places where it’s Saturday already are displaying a special logo doodle celebrating Tetris.  The alt text reads “Celebrating 25 Years of The Tetris Effect – courtesy of Tetris Holding, LLC”, and the logo is linked to a search for tetris.

I remember playing tetris when I was a child. I’m glad that tetris is already available online. Some people like to play tetris game online and some internet users like to download free tetris game. Happy 25th birthday Tetris.

Trivia:

One of the original makers of Tetris is now working at Google – Google Australia, specifically, on the Google Wave project

The game was created by Alexey Pajitnov and first made available on the IBM computer.

Tetris (Russian: Тетрис) is a puzzle video game originally designed and programmed by Alexey Pajitnov. It was created on June 6, 1984, while he was working for the Dorodnicyn Computing Centre of the Academy of Science of the USSR in Moscow. He derived its name from the Greek numerical prefix “tetra-”—as all of the game’s pieces (known as Tetrominoes) contain four segments—and tennis, Pajitnov’s favorite sport. (source Wikipedia)
