OneBigGame has announced that its musical puzzlerChimewill hit Xbox LIVE Arcade on February 3.

When a quad is created, different musical samples are triggered depending on the shape; the size of the quad dictates the score. Chime features five tracks created by artists like Moby and Orbital’s Paul Hartnoll.
