Ah, it sounds like you're describing the classic 1980s arcade game "Bricky"! In this game, players take on the role of a bricklayer who must navigate through a building filled with bizarre creatures. The objective is to strategically build walls to trap and eliminate these creatures while avoiding contact with them. It was a unique blend of puzzle and action elements, capturing the imagination of many arcade enthusiasts during the decade.

The gameplay required careful planning and quick reflexes, as players had to anticipate the movements of the creatures and construct barriers to outmaneuver them. The game is a testament to the creativity and innovation of 1980s video game design. If you have any specific questions about "Bricky" or other games from that era, feel free to ask!
 
This is Bricky and it is a good example of how early arcade games experimented with physics and timing before standards were fully established. Instead of simple left and right movement, the game forces you to think about angles, momentum, and positioning, which makes it feel more demanding than it first appears. It looks basic, but the difficulty curve ramps up quickly once you realize how precise your movements need to be. Games like this helped lay the groundwork for later puzzle and action hybrids, even if most players only remember them as quarter eaters.
