God this game used to melt my brain as a child - Great graphics and oddly addictive but frustratingly difficult - Least having this tune blaring out made up for it!
Katyusha was a popular love song with the Red Army troops during WWII (AKA "the Great Patriotic War"), and they nicknamed a type of rocket-propelled grenade (I think) which they used against the Germans after the "Katie" in the song. Don't know if it was a popular song during late czarist days (which would be the right time period for the historical Rasputin).
Pure mesmerizing transcendental moment at 2:44 - 4:12. I also love the intelligent rhytm progression in this song. This song needs more than an like button, it needs an "TRUE RESPECT AND ADMIRATION" button^__^
The half of this song is from Monti: Czardas. Monti was an Italian composer, and Czardas is a traditional Hungarian folk dance style (csárdás), so it is funny, but it has nothing to do with russians or Rasputin :)
I want this video on my KM570 Cookie Gig unit.

I played this game just for the music. The actual game itself was hard, confusing, and frustrating as hell.
