Description:
Hit the ball with your paddle to destroy jewels in this simple but
addictive puzzle game that mixes elements of Arkanoid with Puyo
Puyo-inspired gimmicks.
Note:
The title of this game translates from Japanese as "Small Karat -
Gemstone Kingdom World".
Tips:
To choose a 3rd costume, press A button and Start at the same time
when selecting your character.
To play as Patoraco: After inserting a coin, when C-Mond is teaching
how to play, press A(x3) and Start. She will be available between
Garnet and Shyst.
When the ball hits the floor, it can serve as both an advantage and
disadvantage, since more jewels can come down from the top. Do your
best to turn this into the former.
