Google Celebrates 25th Anniversary for Tetris with Logo Design
Who says Google employees are not videogame fans? When Google-Street view was released awhile back, employees of the company decided to cosplay and a few were even spotted dressing up as Zelda characters, which can been seen in the street view feature. This past Earth Day, Google redesigned their logo on the search page which commemorated the appreciation for the planet. In that same design, we discovered the TriForce hidden in the image.
Today happens to be the 25th anniversary when Tetris was created by Alexey Pajitnov, in the USSR at the Academy of Science in Moscow. Thanking his achievement, Google has redone their logo for the day, celebrating the ‘birthday’ of the famous videogame.

A great game and a great tribute! I always love the new and original concepts they come up with for the Google logo.

Great to see Google likes this game also. We found a lot of interesting facts about the game’s history when writing about their silver anniversary
