Fun fact, this game was the one that made me realize that not all games I emulate on my 3DS are gonna fill the screen the same way. Playing this on my 3DS via TwilightMenu caused a lot of overscan on the sides. The idea of this happening genuinely never crossed my mind before and it seems like this is an issue with all genesis games? I don't really have an issue as long as it doesn't inhibit my ability to play by having things like the UI or enemies/level layout being cropped too bad. But the reason I was able to tell so easily here was because of the two player screen setup.
Anyway, as for the actual game: it was fine. Got way too fast way too quickly for my liking though.

Nothing really much to remark in regards to what this game is about. It's a game where you stack blocks, but instead of it being in different shapes, you stack them in columns and try to match the same color in a straight line or a diagonal, and this is made possible by rotating the gems before they land on the board.
I will say that the game does get really hard even when you set it to easy which can make it seem rather inaccessible, but the unique angle it takes the block stacking genre of puzzle games does make it worth a look.
