I got Chime for the Personal Computer today as a direct result of Steam's "The Great Steam Treasure Hunt" promotion. It's currently being offered at a low $1.25 and not only that, just messing around with the first two stages of the game will provide you with an entry for winning some games in Steam's current promotional sweepstakes. The game is a weird but successful mix of Tetris and Lumines where you have to position rotatable odd-shaped blocks onto the screen to create solid quads while producing different musical effects in the process. You can't really fail in the game because you are only given another block after you have actually placed the last available one, which is different than a majority of similar titles - it's all about trying to get the highest score possible. The game can get pretty addictive but the only problem with it is that there are only a small number of musical tracks available here - though they are works of popular artists, I suppose it makes sense why this game is rather cheap. Some of the proceeds for purchasing the game goes towards charity in case if you are looking for another reason to invest in this interesting little musical puzzle game.
It may not be as good as Lumines but it's still a fun game.
