What is this original version of Tetris called?

Arqade Asked on March 26, 2021

I’d like to play the original Tetris I played near the end of the 80’s, the Arcade game:

Tetris Title Screen
Tetris In-game

Does anyone know exactly what this version of Tetris is called?

  • Title: Tetris (set 1)
  • Developer: Atari Games

  • Platform: JAMMA (arcade) with Atari
  • Playfield dimensions: 10w x 20h

You can play it with MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). This emulator have open source code, you can download build or sources here.
(as questions about direct links to ROM are considered as an offtopic, I can't provide such link)

I think it was based off the old Тетрис Tetris (Soviet mind game/challenge) Тетрис Tetris
