Kunio no Oden

Overview

Kunio no Oden ("Kunio's Oden") is a 1994 puzzle game from Technos Japan featuring their Kunio-Kun characters. Unlike the usual Kunio-Kun street brawlers and dodgeball sims, the game is far more lighthearted and concerns the combining of oden food items to remove them from the playing field.

The player can choose between Columns rules or Puyo Puyo rules: the former requires that the player link three identical items in a straight line horizontally, vertically or diagonally, while the latter requires that four identical items are touching in any tetromino configuration.

The game was exclusive to the Super Famicom and Japan.
