The chess of videogames (goofy aah comparison)

Probably the game concept that's the closest to perfection. It is abstract to critically put into words how good it feels to play Tetris, as its core gameplay to me is simply pure genius; from its immense addictiveness and such a large range of mastery based on very simple set of rules.

The couple of defaults I would address to this version are coming from the fact that this is a Nes game from 1989, not modern Tetris; Which is to say there's a lot of highly polished versions to play Tetris out there that I would consider to be better in every aspects from TETR.IO, puyo puyo tetris, The Grand Master series... to name a few
Although I'm conscious that's a largely different subjective experience since a lot of people still play classic tetris, both competitively & for fun;

After all it is one of, if not the most important game in video game history.
