Tetris uses four main character sets. The copyright, title screen, and menus all use the same set will the full alphabet, numbers, and some symbols. The game play table has the same letters and numbers, but different symbols. There is a limited set for the animations you see after a game over. The names in the default high score list are stored using a separate table which starts with letters first, then numbers, and this is converted to the menu table when it's displayed on the screen.
