Overview

In Yoshi the player controls Luigi or Mario and tries to keep blocks with monsters inside that are falling from the top of the screen from piling up so high that they reach the top. Mario and Luigi have to prevent this by switching the different columns of enemy characters back and forth in order to be positioned under the different falling objects. If there is a chain of monsters within two yoshi egg shells, the egg shells will merge and a Yoshi will form, adding points and eliminating a group of monsters. The larger the chain of monsters between the two eggshells, the larger the Yoshi that is created will be.

Features

Two game types: Type A: This section is the one you play if you want to go on a marathon session of play. You will see how long you can go, how high you can score, and how many Yoshis you can hatch before your pile reaches the very top to overflow the playing field; Type B: This type will start you with a stack of enemies already on the playing field and you need to clear them away to advance to the next level. Difficulty increases as you advance in the levels. You will receive a point bonus when advancing to the next level, goal being to keep going until you get stacked over the top.

Bonus Items: These can only be collected while playing Type B, they increase in value as you complete each level. They start at 50 points and they cap at 300 points per item. You get one each time you complete a level.

Four types of Yoshi: Small Yoshi, Tall Yoshi, Winged Yoshi and Star Yoshi.
