Tetris is available for the Mac, published by Spectrum Holobyte.  It
has an SE/Plus/512KE version and a Mac II color version.  I remember
that someone complained on the net that neither of these versions
work with MAC II with MONOCHROME moniter.  It's a great game with nice
digitized sounds and GRAPHICS !  It also includes a DA version of the
game.  It is available for between 20 and 30 dollars from mail-order
places like MacConnection.

Unfortunately, it it NOT PD/shareware.
