Pdftris = Play Tetris game in a PDF doc.

Blue's News shared Tom's Hardware article that said "The classic Tetris game has been packaged into a portable document format (PDF) and dubbed Pdftris. The classic falling blocks puzzler is claimed to be playable in most desktop browsers and, indeed, we successfully loaded and played the game in Firefox on personal computer (PC) simply by clicking the above link..."

Its controls were awful to end up with only 7/seven for the overlord's first game's score! :(

AQFL v1!

See it on Archive.Today from June 30th, 2012! :O For an example with your old overlord's (fir/1)st E3 visit back in 2014.
