Re: Does Tetris runs on ROM 3?

Is Spectrum Holobyte the Russia version? if yes, then it is the
version I talked about. I have tried 2 versions and failed, if it
works, then I need to find more.

I like this version because this is my first impression of what Tetris
is - so it is the original to me. All other versions including the
arcade version lack that feeling. I have Dueltris but it feels like a
totally different game.
