 There was a game I picked up on the budget Amiga rack called 'Purple
Saturn Day' by Epyx. One of the contests seemed really familiar to
the game you are talking about. The play was awkward, controllable
only by a mouse and the computer was almost impossible to beat. Hey,
maybe they revamped this idea into a playable standalone.
