It's Quite Puzzling

Runtime: 67 Minutes

We look back at Tetris (1984) and talk about the history of how it came to be. As part of our discussion, we look at the mess of its early licensing history, which resulted in its creator not seeing a cent for over 10 years. We'll also talk about the formation of the Tetris Company, look at its creators original four games in the ...tris series. Finally, we'll wrap it up by looking at a few other versions of Tetris created throughout the years. Join us as we put the pieces together on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.
