| − | '''Yoshi''' | + | '''Yoshi''' is a block puzzle game released simultaneously for the [[NES]] and [[Game Boy]] in 1991.

| − | The player controls | + | The player controls Mario at the bottom of the screen. There are four trays above him, and by moving left and right and spinning around he can swap the trays around. Blocks containing Mario series enemies (Goomba, Boo, Blooper) fall from the top of the screen and land on the trays. Once they have landed, they will move when the trays are switched. Match two blocks containing the same type of enemy and they will clear. |
Thrown into the mix are Yoshi Egg halves. When you match a bottom half and a top half, they will join together and a Yoshi will hatch, giving you a bonus score. If there are enemy blocks sandwiched between the bottom half and the top half, all of the blocks will disappear, and the Yoshi that hatches will be bigger, giving you a bigger score bonus. | Thrown into the mix are Yoshi Egg halves.
