Like Lada cars and a lot of other things, tetris comes from Soviet Russia. The russian people is very "square", so for this reason they love too much de squares and cubes. So when tetris was created by Alekséi Pázhitnov in 1984 was a bestseller in videogames, today it's a classic game like pacman or aero fighters.
In this game you have to move the pieces and to make lines, when you complete a line it disappears, and you can play more comfortable.
In tetris there are 6 types of pieces, and all are differents and have one color. This pieces are composite for 4 littles squares. When you have send a lot of lines the speed of pieces to fall is faster. So the game is being more difficult when you are playing.
I like to play this game in my computer, and specially to play Mario's Tetris in Zsnes. But also I play it whit my friends in facebook.
I let you a video when I'm playing tetris:
