In music class we was taught the Tetris song was based on a Russian folklore song. Lyrics was “Treasures i have in my korobushka can you hear the peddlers cry, though you see me in rags in tatter I wear a smile upon my face” I don’t know how I still remember that 😅
Korobeniki is a traditional russian song written years before the Bolsheviks took power, so short answer: no, it is not communist long answer: no, but it was made in the Soviet era so got to give credit there for communizing a traditional Russian song
The truth is, the tetris anthem and that Soviet Union choir is actually the Russian folk song which name "Korobeiniki" and very original version is from 1861 and do have story for the song. *Source from Google, not sure if true but let's just think it is. Of course, the song is not about communism.*
I'm not talking about history or now what is happening. But i always think Russian folks melodies are really on another level. You really won't hear like them anywhere.
Hard these days the original song was written during harsh (which was the golden age for russian literature and music) and it was made a song theme also during hard times where creativity is hard to find

Because Tetris is actually is it going to freak a lot of people out it’s a Russian made game. It was developed in the last year’s. Of the Soviet union, but it is Russian.
This is because the tetris game was originally invented in the soviet union. so naturally, the person living there wouldve been of one of the soviet nationalities and based the theme on a soviet choir song
while Tetris was invented in the USSR by Alexei Pajitnov, he wasn't the one who put this song to the game - he was coding on a Soviet clone of a mid-80s computer that didn't really have sound output because it wasn't necessary (he did it on his work computer during breaks, so the game was property of the government agency he worked for) - it was Nintendo who put Korobeiniki together with Tetris and turned it into "the Tetris song".
The song was added by the game's publisher to add a Russian flavor to it. The game was created by a Russian so western publishers added a Russian folk song to market it. The song however is a sort of love song about a guy meeting his lover on a rye field where he bought gifts to her and they spent the night doing the "business".

It was not originally a Soviet Union choir song. Though the Red Army sang it, it was written long before the Russian revolution.

Its "Korobeiniki", a song from 1862, pre-communist
I love the sing version of Ivan Rebroff "Poj Zyganka" too!
Could you imagine a Chinese game with Chinese patriotic music launching today? People would lose their minds!
Yeah fr!

[intro]
To Moscow I came seeking fortune
But they’re making me work 'til I'm dead
The bourgeoisie have it so easy
The Tsar’s putting gold on his bread
The people of Moscow are hungry
But think what a feast there could be
If we could create a socialist state
That cared for the people like me:
[Verse 1]
I am the man who arranges the blocks
That descend upon me from up above
They come down and I spin them around
'Til they fit in the ground like hand in glove
Sometimes it seems that to move blocks is fine
And the lines will be formed as they fall -
Then I see that I have misjudged it!
I should not have nudged it after all
Can I have a long one please?
Why must these infernal blocks tease?
[Verse 2]
I am the man who arranges the blocks
That continue to fall from up above
Come Muscovite! Let the workers unite!
A collective regime of peace and love
I work so hard in arranging the blocks
But the landlord and taxman bleed me dry
But the workers will rise! We will not compromise
For we know that the old regime must die
Long live Lenin, kill the Tsar!
We salute thee, sickle and star!

The tetris theme is based on russian folk music my dear
