Biographie 08 - Alexey Pajitnov le Créateur de TETRIS - COLLECTOR EDIT

Discover the incredible story of Tetris through the eyes of Alexey Pajitnov in this official biography! Or how a scientist from the USSR discovered the American dream with Tetris, a video game that the whole world has been snapping up.
The "Great Names in Video Games" collection welcomes a new volume devoted to Alexey Pajitnov, the brilliant creator of the puzzle game Tetris! It all began in Moscow at a scientific institute. It was there that Alexey Pajitnov designed his game. His creation soon got out of hand. Everywhere there was a computer in Moscow, people were playing Tetris. So the game crossed borders... From Hungary, it made its way to England and from there to the USA. Japan's Nintendo decided to get the rights for its Game Boy. What followed was a series of negotiations and manoeuvres worthy of a financial thriller. In the meantime, Pajitnov didn't get a single kopeck for his creation... But then fate changed again.

The collector's edition of the biography contains, in addition to the book, a booklet of anecdotes entitled "Triviaminos - The Secrets of Tetris", as well as a plastic sleeve.
