Several months ago, i came up with an idea of combining Tetris and Poker. I made an iOS app for this. During the initial review, the app was rejected by review team due to copyright violation of Tetris. They simply do not allow any game on IOS that resembles Tetris. Then i had an idea to bypass that restriction, and got my app approved. lol https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dropoker/id505733317?mt=8 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dropoker/id505733317?mt=8

The Tetris Company has an aggressive stance towards protecting their trademark. You don't dare publish anything that remotely sounds like Tetris (anything ending in -tris, in fact [1]). Games that bear the name Tetris must adhere to stringent gameplay guidelines too [2].
