University Professor Plays Tetris On A Skyscraper
Drexel University's professor Frank Lee recently set up a playable game of Tetris on a 29-story building – for science.[Experiment]
You can check out the video below of the game, which was played on the Cira Centre building in Philadelphia. Henk Rogers of The Tetris Company was on hand to witness the spectacle, along with most of Philadelphia as the game was viewable from many areas of the city.
For another video of a smart person playing Tetris, check out this video interview with Steve Wozniak.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
