The game was #Tangram 🧩

A game developed by Thalion Software and released in 1991 on Atari ST and Amiga. I really liked this puzzle game 😀

I ran the Atari ST version of Tangram for comparison 🐉

The music is punchier! And there are some weird sounds. I love! 😍🎶

The chiptunes are also longer than in the Amiga version (which is a port of the Atari ST version)
