Which video game did Alexey Pajitnov design that was the inspiration for the game WildSnake?
Tetris Tetris (Russian: Те́трис , pronounced ] ) is a tile-matching puzzle video game, originally designed and programmed by Russian game designer Alexey Pajitnov. It was released on June 6, 1984, while he was working for the Dorodnitsyn Computing Centre of the Academy of Science of the USSR in Moscow. He derived its name from the Greek numerical prefix "tetra-" (all of the game's pieces contain four segments) and tennis, Pajitnov's favorite sport.
Svaika Svaika (Russian: Свайка ; ] ; "marlinspike" ) was a favorite throwing game of Russian lower-class men up to 20th century. It is a game in which a marlinspike-like spear is thrown to land in the middle of a metal ring lying on the ground some distance away. A tool for the game can weight up to 5 lbs. By one version Tsarevich Dmitry died from a stab wound while he was playing this game.
