Hell, it's everywhere...might be under different names (and hard to find for the Nintendo DS) but it's still out there.  Surprised OP had trouble finding it.

That game is pure evil.  I mean, you think you're over it, and then one day you're all, "just one quick hit" and next thing you know, you're back in Tetris rehab again.

Terry,  google "download tetris".  There are a bunch of places online to download and save a free copy of the game.  You can then put it on a cd or thumb drive and put it on her computer.

Did you ever find a good download? I've got a .swf (shockwave flash file) tetris game that I downloaded a long time ago, it still works, but I always thought it was linked to the web somehow, until the other day when our internet service went out for the night.

It still played without an internet connection, but it uses internet explorer to run it.
If anyone would like a copy just PM me.

I'm not sure if this version is close to the original, but it plays much better than some of the crappy versions out there.


What's everybody's high score?  I hit 115 lines on this one last week, dunno how many points it was though.
Has this thread put anyone else back into Tetris Rehab since it was first posted?
