I played this on an Amstrad PCW in the mid 80's, in glorious green screen. Fun little puzzle game, and IIRC it will work your noggin in the later levels.

I never got to try Head Over Heels.

That and Knight Lore were the two fucking tapes on the Atari 800 XE that wouldn't load and run correctly for whatever reason - I was too young to seduce whether it was a compatibility issue or a tape failure. What I did know that it was my weekly treat that was pissed up the wall because it wouldn't work ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I mean fuck day one patches, but I would have loved a day one POKE command back then.
