Tetris requires quick thinking and has been shown to develop organizational skills in children. Clearly this is total bullshit if Chris logged 350+ hours but then again his brain probably has zero plasticity at this point.
Oddly enough I stumbled on this article which claims that playing Tetris helps manage PTSD:
“
Tetris, increasingly,
is becoming a research tool in mental health. In other studies, researchers have found
Tetris is useful in blocking painful memories in patients with post-traumatic-stress disorder, an effect that's not easily replicated with other games”

This entire dimensional merge/body possession saga is pretty much built on Chris’s unavailing desire to reject reality and his past, so maybe there’s a co-orelation? Could also be that it’s an unending, repetitious game with lots of colorful blocks which would align with his autism.
