Windows has not included Tetris since Windows 3.1. If you want Tetris,

you gotta go buy it or find a replacement.



I like Crack Attack:

I've used *all* non-server versions of Windows and Tetris did not come

with any of them...but as mentioned it's included with BOWEP



FWIW: The BOWEP games will run on Windows 3.0 and up



I am sure many decent versions of Tetris can be found with a quick

Google search

So have I, and I'm fairly sure I remember Tetris being included with

some early version of Windows, then it being removed. It might have

even been in a beta, but not in the released version. At the time, the

story was that there was a dispute between Microsoft and the guy who

owned the name "Tetris".

Maybe?



I never saw it with Windows...though I am sure many machines

came with BOWEP
