About The Game
This is the third instalment in the puzzle frenzy series Magical Drop.
In the game you control a clown who throws marbles up on the screen into the cluster of multi-colored marbles, rocks and crystals. The goal is to get three or more of the same color to remove marbles, but you can also grab more than one at the time to create long chain combos and gain better "special" blocks at the top of the screen.
You can play the game in single player modes or versus a friend in versus mode. In versus mode you get to pick your character, much like in a fighting game, each with their own counter attacks and abilities.

They're already rating the third one as well?!
And one furthermore !!
I think it's a good puzzle game, though I prefer Bust-A-Move.
The first Magical Drop is missing.
The first Magical Drop never got ported to the Neo Geo. I do know that it was ported to the Super FamiCom, but only in Japan.
What's next on VC from them?
Bad Dudes on NES?
Fighter's History on SNES?
@StarBoy91 Oh, okay. You are perfectly right I had forgotten
Great little puzzle game, but like Starboy I prefer Bust-A-Move.
