A game distributed in the United States by LucasFilm under the name: Pipe Dream.
Its concept is quite simple: you have pieces of pipe in various shapes to connect together to form a circuit. After a few seconds, the tap is turned on. You must ensure that the water flows through your pipes for as long as possible.
No pun intended, but I find the concept a little lacking in depth. The playing area seems too small, and the features too few to keep me occupied for long.
For once, the Amiga version seems to be the original! It was adapted to pretty much every platform of the time, including PC-DOS and arcade.
If a modern spin interests you: Pipe Push Paradise (2018).
