Game Descriptions
Yoshi: In this action-packed puzzle game, players control Yoshi, who is trapped in an egg. Gamers must defend against a barrage of enemies raining down from above. By catching and stacking the falling creatures, players can free Yoshi from his egg and score points. The challenge escalates as the speed of falling characters increases, requiring players to think quickly to manage their piles.
Balloon Kid: Set in the quaint town of Pencilvania, this adventure follows Alice, who embarks on a quest to rescue her brother, Jim. After a strong wind carries him away, Alice must float through eight stages, collecting balloons along the way. Players are encouraged to avoid various enemies and can engage in the BALLOON TRIP mode for a high-score competition.
