Hi, I played Tetris Zone for years on my Mac and I was in the Top 50 on zone.tetris.com. It's been a while since the last time I played and today I noticed the web site isn't working anymore. Also on the official www.tetris.com there is just a mediocre web app for playing for free and no mention of all the other Tetris games for PC, consolles etc., included Tetris Zone. What happened? Can someone who is still using Tetris Zone explain me why and when did it disappear from the web? For who doesn't know, this is Tetris Zone.
It must have disappeared somewhat recently, then. The complete overhaul of the website is also news. I wonder if this has anything to do with Tetris Ultimate's PC release -- maybe they want to only have one "up-to-date" game available per platform, but it's screwed up that they're leaving paid users high and dry by retiring the game wholesale with no advance notice. Also, as of yet there don't seem to be any plans to support Mac/Linux.
Hmm, this is interesting I actually played Tetris Zone for the first time in 4+ years roughly a month or so back...so the shut-down must have been very recent indeed. I would say Kitaru is right (-he usually is) about the Tetirs Company wanting the focus to be on Tetris Ultimate for PC. But yeah, crappy they did this without any notice...though not particularly surprising... - Jono
