So I've been thinking about an obscure game. Obscure even by my tastes.

It's a game about programming robots to build a tower (out of blocks) from a diagonal down perspective ("Isometric"/Diametric).
The only thing I can recall of it aside from that premise is the fact that it was Japanese and had a large amount of music to choose from (to the point of having a programmable jukebox.)

Yes, I already checked Mobygames. I don't know what year it was from, but it was for DOS/DOS-V.

It's a very old game that I hadn't played. I remember it from magazines. But I don't think it's that : it was apparently in full 3D, and was more about navigating a tower than building it ?

Did feature a tower, and a robots-programming gameplay.

I applaud the cigar, but it isn't this.
Maybe Hexsider?

EDIT: I think it might be HR2 by Artdink from 1994:

And there we are. HR2.
There's the reason why it isn't easy to find, because it sounds like a system file or productivity application. Thank you.
