Nah, tetris is literally still going. Today is too diversified to compare success with success of pre/early internet eras.
No it is not. Tetris is Tetris
Was candy crush the first to use its formula though? I don’t think so
I remember when it was called Bejeweled.
even Dr. Mario wasn’t the first.

Wasn’t it Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training for the Nintendo DS?
