Great puzzle game. Maybe the best known of all time? Who hasn't played Tetris? A great game to pass the time.

Still one of the best puzzle games of all time. Who would have thunk a handful of differently-shaped falling blocks could provide so much enjoyment and frustration? As the god of Tetris might say: LINE PIECE!

Simple and Addictive

This is the Tetris game that most people started playing. In fact, without this, the game boy may not have become as popular as it did.
This game isn't complicated. It's a simple puzzle game. But, it's addictive, it does take strategy, and there is a high score. Games don't do that much now, but scoring is certainly at the heart of this game. The point was to get as high as possible, period.
There may be a billion versions of this game out there, but this is where it started in America. A great game to take on the road. Simple, addictive, A+.
