Tetris was originally designed by a Russian programmer named Alexey Pajitnov in 1984. Although this game originated in the Soviet Union, the name Tetris is actually derived from the Greek numerical prefix tetra, and tennis, which is the favorite sport of Pajitnov.
The game uses tetrominoes, which is the four element special case of polyominoes. Polyominoes have been used since 1907 in popular puzzles. However, the use of tetrominoes has become more popular through the game Tetris. While there are many platforms that supported Tetris, the most popular and the most successful is the handheld version for the Game Boy. In fact, in 1989 when the game was launched for Game Boy, it was considered as one of the most popular game ever.
