Retro Bricks

Classic Tetris is a timeless video game originally designed and programmed by Alexey Pajitnov in 1984. The game became globally popular after its release for platforms like the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and Game Boy in the late 1980s.

In Classic Tetris, players control falling geometric shapes, called "tetrominoes," that are made up of four square blocks. The objective is to arrange these pieces to form complete horizontal lines without gaps. When a line is completed, it disappears, and the player earns points. As the game progresses, the speed of the falling pieces increases, making it more challenging to place them strategically.

The game features a simple, yet iconic, visual style: a grid-based playfield with blocks rendered in bright, solid colors. The accompanying music, often a chiptune adaptation of "Korobeiniki," a Russian folk tune, adds to its classic appeal.

Classic Tetris is widely celebrated for its straightforward mechanics, strategic depth, and universal appeal, making it one of the most influential and enduring video games of all time.
