Yoshi | |
Template:Releasedate NES/Game Boy |
The first Yoshi game, simply called Yoshi, is a two-dimensional puzzle game, with elements similar to those of Tetris. The rules are fairly basic: the player must stack the same enemies on top of each other to make them disappear; the more the player does this, the more points they earn. |
Yoshi's Cookie | |
Template:Releasedate NES/Game Boy/SNES |
Just as Yoshi did, Yoshi's Cookie used many of the same elements found in Tetris. In order for the player to earn points and clear a stage, he or she has to have an entire row or column of the same type of cookie lined up. Six type of cookies could be found in the game: Heart Cookies, Sunflower Cookies, Green Cookies, Checkered Cookies, Donut Cookies, and Yoshi Cookies. A remake later appeared in Nintendo Puzzle Collection on the Nintendo GameCube, along with Dr. Mario and Panel De Pon. |
Yoshi no Cookie: Kuruppon Oven de Cookie | |

Yoshi no Cookie: Kuruppon Oven de Cookie was a Japan-only edition of Yoshi's Cookie. It was developed by Human Electronics to promote their new Kuruppon oven. Only 500 copies were made of the game, and are now very expensive collector's items. It included the SNES version of Yoshi's Cookie and an additional mode which has Yoshi exploring an island and teaching the player some recipes the player can actually cook. |
Tetris Attack | |
Template:Releasedate SNES/Game Boy |
Tetris Attack was a puzzle game that, despite the name, had very little relation to Tetris. It was based around the Japanese game Panel de Pon, but themed around Yoshi and associated characters. The gameplay involved square panels rising from the bottom (called the "stack") and the player has to line up three or more matching panels either horizontally or vertically as the stack rises. The game was released on both the SNES and the Game Boy. |
