Tetris by Pajitnov and Gerasimov - USSR 1986

Post by Ape Escape »

Vadim Gerasimov apparently posted a version of the original Tetris program (the Elektronika version was a prototype as far as I know) here:

http://vadim.oversigma.com/Tetris3.zip

Of course looking at the filename "Tetris3.zip" I didn't resist changing the number of the zip file, and with that I actually found something, which I guess it is an earlier version of the game and not linked anywhere on his site:

http://vadim.oversigma.com/Tetris1.zip

I had no luck running the program on DosBox... I'm not sure if it's a DOSBOX glitch or just a severely unfinished program, so I came here to ask for the resident experts to take a look at it.
