I thought I'd never hear that company's name again. I've been looking
feverishly, for about 3 years, for a copy of Spectrum Holobyte's
"Blockout!"
The base game is a series of walls the player needs to take down by grouping
3 or more like blocks or symbols. It also contains bombs, missiles, and
other cute destructive devices. It was a simple game, made to run in DOS,
and I'd (or my wife would!) just about die for a copy of it. Ours died when
my DOS-based BBS fried back in '97...
Cheers...

Now, I don't have a copy of Spectrum Holobyte's Tetris lying around
here, but I don't recall hearing any mention of it having noteworthy
contents.
