If you manage to get two blocks with the same enemy to land on top of each other they vanish, just like my hopes and dreams of growing up to become a world famous super model. Two enemy blocks normally descend at the same time so you need to think quickly to decide the optimal place to drop the blocks and how best to rotate the trays to get everything into position. Things start simple enough, but as time passes by things get trickier as the speed o...more

Mario and Yoshi is a Gameboy puzzler released back in 1992 that is also available on the Nintendo Entertainment System and Wii Virtual Console. As the title suggests the game features the world famous plumber Mario and his pal, the ride-able dinosaur with a big appetite, Yoshi. The duo first took on Bowser's evil minions in the smash hit platformer Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo, but this time round they have hung up their jumping shoes to try out a more cerebral challenge. Mario's no stranger when it comes to games that make you think (having appeared in the excellent Tetris and Dr Mario) so I was curious to see if he could complete a hat-trick of quality games  Read the complete review

When I first saw Mario and Yoshi I assumed that it was simply an addition to the Super Mario series on the Gameboy. Being an avid platformer fan, I bought it, took it home and instantly realised I had actually bought a PUZZLE game! I was at first a little annoyed. I played it for a while. I was actually beginning to LIKE it! After a few more plays through a one player game I really enjoyed the game's quirky graphics and sound track. The idea is simple - you stack up little enemies in blocks of three and they disappear. But unlike most puzzle games, it wasn't a case of simply going on forever. When you enter a level, there are some blocks already laid ...  Read the complete review
