  2. In Soviet Russia, Tetris Plays You

Fri, 10/17/2003 - 12:58 by narcogen

We don't always point out Stuntmutt's new One One Seven cartoons, mainly because (especially with guest strips included) there's just too darn many of them). However, today's was particularly interesting to us here at Rampancy headquarters because of our own connection to the former Soviet Union. As such, we thought some might be interested to learn a bit more about the genesis of Tetris, which was produced during the Soviet era. One of the three developers, Vadim Gerasimov, recalls his history of the game's development, as well as the compensation he received: about $1,000 cash, a TV and a VCR.
