If Tetris had a story what would it be?

[Stako]

Hello! ^^

Title says is all - if Tetris had a story, what do you think it would be?
Let's see how creative we can get! ^^

I admit I have no idea of my own for now, but if I think up of something I'll post my idea here.

Certainly gives freedom of thought now, doesnt it?

Hmm the beginnings of the cold war maybe? "Mr. Gorbachev build me this wall!"

Ninnja'd by the very first reply...

But basically, this. Or something else to do with Communism

Take your pick!

Help the Russians build a wall that can withstand Reagan.

To quote myself and a reply I got in a thread [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.291134-Worst-Story-in-a-game-Ever#11560521] about game stories:

Tetris. It's allegory on the state of the communist regime in the USSR was tired, predictable, and thoroughly dull.

For everyone who questions the validity of Tetris's storyline.

It's about your take on the subject, not copying and pasting. [this goes for everyone, but I just liked your copy/paste the most xD]

Clearly a homage to the soviets.

It's the post-missile defence story, it's about rebuilding the cities that got destroyed.

tetris has a story, go beat it and you'll see it! it's a romantic tale of lovers watching rockets launch, bands play and empires being built block by block!

at-least, that's what i choose to think when i see those things basically bring your own story.

It would be done in the form of a sphere and there would be little creatures trapped inside which you have to save by placing the right blocks in the right places so that they explode and make way for the creatures escape.

I would pick the story offered by Futurama:

Sadly I still don't see any creativity here...

My sister had a tetris game and there was an alternative mode where you had to control an adventurer whilst a bot played the standard tetris game, the idea was you didn't get trapped or crushed by any of the blocks. So I guess that could be the story.
