Tetris Birthday

Today marks 30 years since one of the brightest events in the history of computer games. A game was created that sold out around the world in incalculable editions and continues to diverge. This game is ported to almost all platforms and systems. Her name is Tetris Legion .



Around the world, billions of man-hours are wasted, thrown to the wind thanks to this game. For the damage done to the global economy by this game for almost thirty years, it can be compared, perhaps, with a war of medium size.

It is difficult to find a modern person who has not played at least once. Well, except that the old and very far from modern technology people.



By the way, Tetris can rightfully be called a game that brings people peace and quiet. Scientists from the University of Plymouth conducted a study of the influence of computer games like Tetris on the human condition (which people do not do ...). It turned out that they provoke visual distraction (who would have thought), which, in turn, can reduce the appetite or craving for alcohol by 24%, for example (urgently supply TTP with all LTPs in your city!). According to the researchers, according to the theory of deliberate intrusion (elaborated intrusion), our aspirations for something are provoked by visual images that “pop up” in thoughts. So, after three minutes of playing Tetris, you, as experiments have shown, will want, for example, to have a quarter weaker. However strange it may sound.



In general, we congratulate you on Tetris' Birthday! Let him help you not to overeat and drink too much! Long years of pride in domestic game development, memory in centuries and an honorable place in the annals of history!
