There are of course zillions of versions of "Tetris" out there, but Spectrum HoloByte's 1987 release was the one which introduced me to PC gaming on my dad's first computer (an IBM 286). I did play the solid Gameboy port a lot as well, but it didn't have the lovely USSR-themed background graphics of this PC version.

In this video, I reach the 7000 point mark and the 8th level (there are 9 in total).
