It's raining Goombas, Bloopers and Boo Buddies! You have to help Mario cope with the airborne invasion! As the critters fall, catch them on trays. Switch and shuffle to save the day! Stack two of a kind and they both disappear. Or, capture the whole bunch in-between egg shells. When the egg shells match, out hatches Yoshi and up goes your score!
The action heats up as the characters fall faster and faster. If your piles get too high, the game is over. Choose your difficulty level and play for a high score or challenge a friend in a head-to-head hatch-off!
If you like Dr. Mario, but you're ready for a whole new kind of challenge, you'll love this quick-shuffle action puzzle game!
Mario can shuffle the 4 trays at the bottom to catch columns of falling characters. If 2 characters match, they disappear. If they don't, they will begin to stack. If the stack reaches the top, it's game over!
The game becomes faster for every 40 characters that drop. During this event, the falling characters will temporarily slow down. Use this to your advantage to clear as many as possible before it speeds up again.
In Game B, you will begin with characters already stacked up. Your goal is to clear all of the characters from the screen before you can advance to the next stage. The amount of starting characters increases with each stage.
In 2 player mode, your goal is to win 3 eggs before your opponent. Eggs are awarded if you clear your entire screen, or if your opponent's stack reaches the top. Also, any characters caught inside a Yoshi egg will be sent into the other player's screen.
Sometimes a Yoshi eggshell will fall instead of a character. If you drop a top shell onto a column that has a bottom shell, it will eat ALL of the characters in between! Top shells will simply disappear if there's no button shell beneath.
Because the shells are rarer, you need to think carefully where to place the bottom section. Always try to place them as low as possible. As a desperate measure, you can clear bottom shells by matching 2 of them together.
The type of Yoshi that hatches from eggs depends on how many characters are caught in between. The higher the stack gets, the riskier it becomes but the reward is greater.
If you are fast enough, you can swap stacks around to catch multiple falling characters. Pulling off these combos can really help clear out a stack that's in trouble.

Yoshi
Yoshi is a straightforward block-matching puzzle game with solid core mechanics that, like Tetris or Dr. Mario, can keep you engaged for hours. The controls are responsive — and they need to be as you will be rapidly shuffling stacks around to catch the falling characters and then getting them into position for the next batch.
What really sets Yoshi apart is the eggshells that will appear. Bottom shells can only be removed by other shells, but when combined with the top shell, they can clear every character trapped between them. Like Tetris, the game becomes more difficult the closer you are stacked to the top of the screen, and with the eggshells thrown into the mix, it can feel like a game of chicken. At first, the shells seem like a real headache, but they are your ticket for clearing massive amounts of characters when placed correctly.
Like similar games, the blocks will begin falling faster to the point where you are eliminated, but Yoshi approaches this a bit differently. When the difficulty increases, the falling enemies will increase from two to three. This 'barrage' will make a real mess out of your stacks as you frantically try to get them into position. After several rounds of this, the barrage will end and the game will temporarily slow, allowing you time to recover. This simple feature adds a lot of variety to the game and will have you planning around these devastating waves that seem to come out of nowhere. There is much to enjoy for puzzle game enthusiasts, and once you become accustomed to the stack-swapping controls, Yoshi can compete with any other title in the genre.
