Although not as aggressively as rival Gameloft, EA Mobile has been supporting Android devices with a decent range of paid games.
As has been the case with other developers and publishers, however, it seems that balancing such content with free stuff is now a priority.
Hence, following the release of a free version of Scrabble, comes a free version of Tetris.
Free drop
Featuring the Marathon mode, EA says it comes with new and improved visuals and controls, and a statistics page so you can track the length of your addiction.
Of course, EA also has paid, full versions of the games available on the Android Market with the Tetris by EA costing £4.90 (or local equivalent), while the rather similarly described Tetris is £1.83.
"Tetris is one of the most distinctive, well-known and popular video game franchises in the world and it gives EA the opportunity to grow its already-expanding customer base on the Android platform," said Bernard Kim, veep of sales and marketing for EA Interactive.
The free version of Tetris is now available for Android [Market link].
