Tetris for the Electronika 60, the original creation which Alexey Pajitnov programmed in Pascal on an Electronika 60 computer, features black and white (or green, depending on the computer) graphics. The style used is called ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)art. A pair of brackets represents each block in a tetromino. A player controls input through the number pad, and there are greater/less than/slashes and lines outlining the playfield.

You need to know some Russian to understand this game. The translations are as follows:

• 7: Left
• 9: Right
• 8: Rotate
• 4: Change level
• 5: Restart
• 1: Show/hide next
• 0: Exit

From top to bottom, the text in the upper left corner translates to "lines" "level" and "score" respectively
