Poitto! (Japan revision D)

Metro and Able Corp. collaborated on Poitto!, a two-player puzzle game released in Japan in 1993. Players use an eight-way joystick to manipulate falling blocks, attempting to strategically arrange them within the playfield alongside their opponent. The objective is to clear rows of blocks by creating solid horizontal lines, earning points with each successful elimination. Gameplay involves a constant interplay between players as they both contribute to the growing stack and attempt to outmaneuver one another’s placements. A single button is used for basic actions within the game. The combination of simple controls and strategic block placement creates an engaging experience that tests reflexes and planning skills. Poitto! utilizes a Motorola 68000 processor alongside sound chips from OKI and Yamaha, delivering both gameplay and audio elements characteristic of early-to-mid 1990s arcade titles.
