Ok this will be a hard one, because it is a Tetris game, and there are millions of'em. The worse thing is, I think this game is called Tetris :>

Anyway, the game in question was released around 1990ish, I never found it anywhere, I know for a fact it ain't on the net and prolly it ain't in anyone's colection (there is a slight chance that it is an argentinian game), so I'm mainly looking for information about it if anyone knows it (Publisher, release date, etc.).

I've been looking for it since 1993!!!!! And a thread on EAB has been running about this for 6 years.

Some data that will help you in your quest:

*The looks of the game we look for are exact or almost exact to those of Atari Tetris. Look at picture:


*The game is not part of a demo, it's a standalone game

*The scrolling down of the tetris blocks is smooth, like in SNES's Tetris Bombliss. The demopart posted by KnucklesD hops from position to position, just like the arcade game. The game we look for one-upped the arcade game in that respect.

*The music was more uptempo than the original arcade tetris music. It had no vocal samples, but it had a more " techy"/electronic feel to it. Think of the year 1992, 2Unlimited sort of cheesy thang.

*It was featured in an argentinian TV show dedicated mostly to the Amiga. Show in question was called "El Cerebro Magico"and it aired at Channel 2 from La Plata around 1990/92. They had compos for this game, and there's a slight chance this is an argentinian developed game (far fetched, but I'm beginning to think so!)

We're looking for any leads. So far 2 guys in here have a slight memory of having played it or seen it. It would be most helpful to grab footage from this TV show, as to prove the existance of the game and better consistent evidnce (games were shown full-screen on gameplay when they ran the compos)


WE ARE OFFERING A REWARD FOR THE LOCATION OF THIS GAME

Thank you for your attention :)

Just a guess or actually prob not since it doesn't look like the atari tetris.

If it ain't looking like Atari Tetris, I ain't looking for it.
My request has been pretty clear and strict, I have been looking for this for 16 years or so!
