What's your OS and what installation method did you use?

Interesting.. it looks like snap doesn't have access to the directory /usr/share/terminfo. You can probably launch by manually setting TERM, e.g. TERM=xterm tetris. Or copy those files to a place where the snap can find them:

mkdir -p ~/snap/tetris-thefenriswolf/current/.terminfo/a
cp /lib/terminfo/a/alacritty ~/snap/tetris-thefenriswolf/current/.terminfo/a/

I couldn't find /lib/terminfo/a/alacritty

What about /use/share/terminfo?

cp /lib/terminfo/a/alacritty ~/snap/tetris-thefenriswolf/current/.terminfo/a/

I changed /lib/terminfo/ to /usr/share/terminfo but i am getting the same error even if i copied the file
