experience with frantic challenges against the clock accompanied by

"Tetris POP is the perfect companion to our other Tetris products," said Adam Sussman, VP Publishing for EA Mobile. "We've
created a unique spin on the classic game that provides fans with a
variety of short, challenging bursts of great Tetris gameplay."

mode, players select their desired play time and let the game tailor a
play session to fit around the time available. In POP Mix mode, players can customise their gameplay by selecting their favourite variations from the play list available.

Tetris POP is the latest addition to the EA line-up of mobile Tetris titles which includes Tetris Blockout, Tetris Mania, the original Tetris, and the recently launched iPhone version. In March 2007, EA also launched a multiplayer version of Tetris which has recorded almost seven million multiplayer games to date.
