Tetris 2, released in 1991 for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), marks a significant departure from the original Tetris. While maintaining the core puzzle mechanics of clearing lines by arranging falling tetrominoes, this version introduces several key innovations. Notably, it includes a new "Bombliss" mode, an addition not found in the original game, adding a strategic layer that involves clearing blocks using bombs. The original Tetris was released on the NES, but this version, being a unique title exclusive to the NES, adds to the system's expansive library. Its enhanced gameplay elements, with the added Bombliss mode and other alterations, give players a different feel from the classic formula and is a testament to the continuing evolution of the beloved puzzle game. This variant also showcases the creative license and innovations that developers applied to established titles, thus enriching the NES's game library. It is a product of Nintendo's long-lasting partnership with Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of Tetris.
