Puzzle! Mushihime-Tama (Japan, 2005/09/09.MASTER VER)

Players cooperate in Puzzle! Mushihime-Tama, a two-player toss puzzle game released in Japan by Cave under license from AMI in 2005. Featuring characters familiar to fans of the Mushihime Sama series, this arcade title challenges players to strategically launch colored orbs at a central playfield. Successful tosses connect matching colors, clearing segments and advancing the gameplay. The objective involves carefully manipulating these spheres to eliminate patterns while avoiding letting them accumulate too high. Utilizing an 8-way joystick for precise aiming, each player contributes to a shared puzzle space requiring teamwork and coordination to achieve optimal results. The game runs on Cave’s third generation hardware, utilizing a Hitachi SH-3 CPU and Yamaha YMZ770C-F sound chip.
