I think I read somewhere that the first version of Tetris was written on a Russian computer called Electronica 60. This computer didn't have a graphics mode, so they used square backets to model the pieces. The DOS version that you mentioned is a port of the Electronica 60 version with some advancements like coloured pieces and a score display. ;-) This version was still done by the original authors of Tetris.
