Yoshi is an action puzzle game starring Mario's dinosaur buddy Yoshi, and other familiar characters like Little Goomba and Blooper. Once again, Mario is going to have to battle away to save Yoshi, who is imprisoned in an egg. Match the egg shells to release Yoshi and score big points! (Picture of Yoshi hatching from an egg) --PAGE 5-- HOW TO PLAY It takes fast finger-work to make Mario shuffle the four trays and catch the rain of characters falling from the top of the screen. There are six different characters, including Little Goomba, Bloober and Boo Buddy. You must match a falling character with another of the same type to make them both disappear. If the characters don't match up, they will start to stack sky high-and you don't want that! If your stacks grow above the top line, the game will be over! Sometimes Yoshi's egg will fall with the other characters. Match up the top and bottom parts of Yoshi's egg and you will form an entire egg and clear away all the characters in between the halves. Yoshi will then hatch out of the egg, giving you bonus points. --PAGE 6-- USING THE CONTROLLER Use Controller [1] to play a 1-player game. Use Controller [1] and [2] to play a 2-player game.

Good luck! --PAGE 13-- How to Put the Egg Together Pieces of Yoshi's egg shell are mixed in with the falling characters. If you can line up the upper and lower halves of the egg in the same column, you'll create a while egg that will then hatch to reveal Yoshi! * If an upper shell half lands on one of Mario's trays, it will disappear. * If a lower shell half lands on one of Mario's trays, it will remain there. You can stack characters on top of it or try to match it to a top half. * If a lower shell lands on top of another lower shell, both pieces will disappear. --PAGE 14-- * If an upper shell half lands on top of a lower shell half, an egg will form and Yoshi will hatch from it! If you sandwich some characters between an upper shell half and a lower shell half, you will get a bonus depending on how many characters you sandwiched: Little Yoshi -- 0 to 1 characters -- 50 points Yoshi -- 2 to 4 characters -- 100 points Winged Yoshi -- 5 to 6 characters -- 200 points Star Yoshi -- 7 characters -- 500 points --PAGE 15-- HOW TO PLAY AN OPPONENT (2-PLAYER GAME) Two players start the game at the same time.
