Ask anyone what their favorite vintage arcade game is and 9 out of 10 will mention Tetris. Okay, so maybe I made that stat up, but a quick poll of all the Sugar girls tells me everyone hearts Tetris and the game did come in third place in IGN's 2005 100 Greatest Videogames Of All Time list. How much do you know about the game? Take my quiz and find out!

some of those weren't really right. like the question of inspiration. it's NOT shoeboxes. Tetris (Russian: Тетрис) is a falling-blocks puzzle video game, released on a large spectrum of platforms. Alexey Pajitnov originally designed and programmed the game in 1984, while working for the Dorodnicyn Computing Centre of the Academy of Science of the USSR in Moscow. Pajitnov has cited pentominoes as a source of inspiration for the game. He derived its name from the Greek numerical prefix "tetra-", as all of the pieces contain four segments, and tennis, Pajitnov's favorite sport.[1][2] meh.
