Cool to see the MOMA getting into curating video games! So is the screenshot here saying that Pajitnov wrote this fully-functional, English-language version of Tetris in 1984?
"Tetris Alexey Pajitnov (Russian, born 1955) 1984. Video game. Gift of The Tetris Company, LLC. © 2012 The Tetris Company, LLC" Three lines later "This abstract puzzle, created in 1985 by Pajitonov" With a screenshot of an english version of the game.
