Tetris 

Tetris is widely known as the most popular computer puzzle game of all time.  Its name is derived from the Greek numerical prefix "tetra-" meaning four, as all of the blocks are made up of four segments.  Seven randomly rendered tetrominoes  composed of four blocks each - fall down the playing field. The object of the game is to manipulate these tetrominoes with the aim of creating a horizontal line of blocks without gaps. When such a line is created, it disappears, and the blocks above (if any) fall. As the game progresses, the tetrominoes fall faster, and the game ends when the stack of Tetrominoes reaches the top of the playing field and no new Tetrominoes are able to enter.  For more information: Click Here
