| [[Legal disputes]] make the term ''official'' unclear for some early titles. To clarify, this list includes both licensed games and those developed under the pretense of having a license, as well as ports preceding the establishment of licensing.

|
| ; 1985
| | Official Tetris games, developed or licensed by [[The Tetris Company]]. These games adhere to the guidelines set by the rights holders, including the use of specific gameplay mechanics, branding, and design elements. Official Tetris games are developed by authorized studios. Only traditional Tetris games are included here, focusing on the classic block-stacking gameplay. Variants such as Bombliss or Tetris Attack are included. |

| There are many fan made derivatives of ''Tetris''. Sometimes these games infringed on copyright and/or trademark, though nevertheless a number of them have fostered a large user base and have achieved some cultural importance.
