Summary

Tetris Forever celebrates the timeless perfection of Tetris, starting with its original 1984 version on the Electronika 60. The compilation highlights various iterations of the game over four decades, showcasing its evolution and the ongoing quest to improve perfection. Despite licensing issues preventing the inclusion of iconic versions like Game Boy Tetris, the collection offers rare editions like Tetris 2 and BomBliss. The new game, Tetris Time Warp, offers a fun time-travel mechanic. While Tetris’ history is fascinating, its brilliance lies in its simplicity and enduring gameplay, proving that no version can surpass its original genius.
