Tetris (テトリス)
Contents
Gameplay
While Bullet-Proof Software would become synonymous with the Tetris brand in Japan over the next few years (acquiring the license to produce home console and handheld ports of the game in 1989), these Japanese home computer versions mark the first time the company touched the Tetris brand.
In this case, BPS sub-licensed the Tetris brand from Sphere Inc. and Andromeda, and while it shares a similar Russian branding to its Western computer counterparts, BPS' entries are entirely different versions of the game, with more in common with the 1986 IBM PC version from Russia.
These versions of Tetris use Russian folk music similar to copies from Atari Games around this period.
