Timeline

1954

Vladimir Ivanovich Pokhilko (Russian: Владимир Иванович Похилько ) (7 April 1954 – 21 September 1998) was a Soviet-Russian entrepreneur.

He was an academic who specialized in human–computer interaction.

Born in Moscow on April 7, 1954, he graduated from the Faculty of Psychology at Moscow State University in 1982.

He was a junior researcher at the I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University.

A friend of Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov, he was the first clinical psychologist to conduct experiments using the game.

1989

In 1989, he and Pajitnov founded the 3D software technology company AnimaTek in Moscow.

After suffering financial difficulties at his software company, AnimaTek, Pokhilko allegedly murdered his wife, Elena Fedotova (38) and their son, Peter (12), by bludgeoning and stabbing them both to death.

He then committed suicide by slitting his own throat.

Shortly before his death, Pokhilko penned a note.

The police initially did not release the content of the note, saying that it was not a suicide note and that they didn't know who authored it.

1999

He played an important role in the subsequent development and marketing of the game, and a 1999 article in the Forbes magazine credited him for "co-inventing the seminal videogame Tetris".

They later determined it was a purported suicide note and published the content of the note in 1999; it read:
