The life story behind Tetris, The Perfect Game | Henk Rogers interview


Henk Rogers has written his insider's take on the story of The Perfect Game: Tetris, From Russia With Love.

When Henk Rogers read the script for the Tetris movie — about his journey into the Soviet Union to get the rights to Alexey Pajitnov’s addictive game — he didn’t recognize some of the scenes. While some of those scenes in the 2023 movie brought tears to his eyes, Rogers decided that he wanted to set the record straight on the inside story of how Tetris came to sell hundreds of millions of copies. Featuring a foreword by Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, the book chronicles Rogers’ groundbreaking contributions to the gaming industry, his relentless pursuit of innovation, and his deep commitment to sustainable energy.
