Information about Tetris vs. Biosocia, Inc.
Thursday, March 12, 2009
Dear Tetris Fans:
We, the owners of Tetris® (Tetris Holding, LLC and The Tetris Company, LLC), wanted to let you know about legal action that we have recently taken in order to stop the infringement and misuse of Tetris' valuable intellectual property and copyrighted expression. Rest assured, this will have no impact on your ability to continue enjoying Tetris.
Thanks to you, Tetris has become one of the most widely played games in history with over 100 million fans worldwide and it shows no signs of slowing down. We want to continue that tradition and sometimes it becomes necessary to take action against those who harm and threaten Tetris’ intellectual property rights. For instance, this lawsuit, which is directed at a company called Biosocia, Inc. and its founder, seeks to put a stop to their unauthorized Tetris clone and their attempts to trade upon the priceless goodwill the Tetris game has achieved since its release nearly 25 years ago.
Though we are hopeful we can resolve this matter quickly, we are also obligated and committed to defending the high standards and quality of our intellectual property. Most of all, we want to continue to provide the official Tetris gaming experience to you, our millions of loyal fans.
Thank you for visiting our Web site. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to play official Tetris! To find out more about the latest Tetris products, please visit the Products section on www.tetris.com. In the meantime, we hope you continue to enjoy Tetris!
