A classic DOS falling-block puzzle game that combines elements of Tetris and Lemmings (hence the name), where you manage falling shapes or tiles on a grid.
Water streams down from the top into a grid of empty boxes, connected by rotatable pieces of plumbing. The player's task is to rotate and rearrange the pieces so that all the boxes are filled up with water. This must be done quickly - the water will inevitably leak and pool at the bottom of the screen, then start rising upwards, drowning row after row of boxes as it does. The level must be finished before the water reaches the top.
Pipe sections can have from one to four openings, and may be rotated individually or in groups of four (which is the only way to rearrange their position on the grid). Any additional leakage will make the water level rise faster, so open-ended pipes at the bottom or sides of the grid will have to be sealed off. A box full of water will turn a solid white; as soon as all remaining boxes are filled up, the game progresses to the next level, with a larger number of boxes to deal with.
You are an adventurer who has recently arrived in a once-bustling medieval city whose streets are strangely deserted. The people are here, but they no longer gather in the cobbled streets and the public squares. Instead, they cower in the safety of their houses. Few shops are open, and it is difficult to find out the cause of this eerie quiet.
All that you can find out from the few frightened, gabbling citizens you come across is that a great and significant treasure has gone missing from the city. It seems that this is no ordinary treasure, but one that guarantees the safety of the city and its inhabitants. With it missing, everyone is expecting a great calamity to fall upon them.
You will have to consult the city’s ruler to find out exactly what has gone missing, and what reward there is to the hero who retrieves it. All you can gather from those you have spoken to so far is that there exists a network of underground passages and chambers with unsavoury inhabitants, and everyone believes the treasure has been

Bubu Chuǎng Tōngguān is a Bomberman variant. Players control an octopus character that deploys black octopi functioning as bombs. These are used to destroy breakable blocks and eliminate enemies.

Each level contains upgrades hidden under rocks that enhance the octopus's abilities, including bomb capacity, blast radius, and movement speed. These upgrades persist across levels. The game is structured into themed worlds - such as forests or bathrooms - each comprising multiple levels and culminating in a boss battle.
