5.0 out of 5 stars An Awesome Game!, July 20, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Yoshi (Video Game)

This game is a puzzle game.The object is to clear the field from the falling monsters. You do that by switching platforms to match monsters. When you get two matching ones touching they will both disappear. You also want to get alot of points. You can get alot by dropping an eggshell,putting alot of monsters on top of it,and then putting another eggshell on top of that.( It will only work if you have the bottom half of an eggshell on the bottom and a top half of an eggshell on the top.) The more monsters you put in between the more points you get. This is a MUST-BUY! Beginners can work on just clearing the stage and experts can try to get alot of points.

3.0 out of 5 stars Make an enemy sandwitch with this puzzle game, November 11, 2009

This review is from: Yoshi (Video Game)

This game fits into whatever genre Tetris does. Please note this is not Yoshi's Cookie, that's a different game.

In this game, there are four colums that enemies and half eggs fall from the sky just like Tetris. Here's the catch, you don't control the items, you control Mario at the bottom of the screen. You must rotate around the four columns (switch the columns). To prevent the enemies from piling too high, you can match the enemies and make them disappear (blooper with blooper, boo with boo).

The objective is to make an enemy sandwitch between the lower half of an egg and the upper half. It starts out easy enough of course, then grows in difficulty.

Its a fun G-rated puzzle game for all ages :-)
