Throw the hippest gaming parties with Tetris ice cubes
We suppose that they're technically ice tetrominoes, but that just sounds so much less hip. Next time you have friends and colleagues over for caviar and Rock Band, keep their cocktails cool with these Tetris-themed ice "cubes," fashioned like those seven shapes made famous by Alexey Pajitnov's classic falling block puzzle game. Of course, you could always make them yourself, but nothing says swanky like flexible silicone trays.
Unfortunately, the designer states on his website that the "Tetrice" tray hasn't been put into production yet, but that he's currently seeking out companies to produce it. We hope he finds one soon, because we're already planning our first fancy soirée: black tie only, and you must bring your own controller.

Yes.
I'm sure Think Geek would produce it.

What happens if I get my ice in a row, does it disappear?
mcatrage @ Feb 24th 2008 12:03PM
If you wait long enough.

That's pretty much epic

Go back to 1985.

Does the straight block always come out last?
Morisato @ Feb 24th 2008 11:21AM
No. The square one would come out last. The L and T shapes have the highest surface to area ratio, followed by the Z and straight block... then finally the square one.
Morisato @ Feb 24th 2008 11:21AM
haha. I counted wrong... all of them have the same surface to area ratio except for the square one... I'm still right about the square one coming out last though.

further proof that tetris will probably neer go out of style even if all the newer tetris games are all pretty lame and low on good innovation
kojo87 @ Feb 24th 2008 12:10PM
want now.
and how come my ice never looks so clear and perfect?
Knoxximus @ Feb 24th 2008 12:21PM
Cause you probably use tap water.
Just_a_guy @ Feb 24th 2008 12:22PM
those pieces of "ice" look fake to me....
BigD145 @ Feb 24th 2008 2:00PM
The only way to get it clear is to vibrate the air molecules out.
waynski1457 @ Feb 24th 2008 3:27PM
they could have also blow-torched them.

If you want your ice to be clear boil it twice. That gets rid of the impurities which make household ice cloudy.
Fernog @ Feb 24th 2008 12:34PM
Those sure are some "Cool" ice cubes. Hehehe
Benny @ Feb 24th 2008 1:08PM
Invisible Tetris!
Spiza @ Feb 24th 2008 1:37PM
I just hope the Chinese manufacturer they go with does not use any lead.
BigD145 @ Feb 24th 2008 2:02PM
Only if it was designed by an American company.
V Mehta @ Feb 24th 2008 1:44PM
Unfortunately, I don't think these would look that cool if you actually put them in a glass with your beverage of choice.
Might be fun molds to use for jello, though.
Papytendo @ Feb 24th 2008 2:16PM
I want one.
Ranko @ Feb 24th 2008 2:34PM
I'll probably be the only dork to hum the theme as I sip my drink.
Jay @ Feb 24th 2008 4:44PM
no you wouldn't
rokobungi @ Feb 24th 2008 7:48PM

lordwindowlicker @ Feb 24th 2008 9:09PM
Yeah.. I want this...
amander @ thingsiask.com @ Feb 25th 2008 2:39PM
