Columns

Columns is a 1991 Game Gear video game developed by Sega R&D1 and released by Sega of America in the USA on April 26, 1991. It will challenge your mind, not just your trigger finger! Drift back in time to ancient Phoenicia and challenge yourself with Columns, an addictive game played by Middle Eastern merchants centuries ago. In this mesmerizing pastime, tinker with your riches to align glittering jewels across, down, or diagonally. As you line up colors, the gems vanish and more sparklers drop from above. The challenge increases as jewels fall more rapidly. You must quickly align them before the columns reach the top. For additional challenge, try Flash Columns, where you must make the flashing jewel disappear before your time runs out. • With 3 degrees of difficulty and 10 different levels, Columns will challenge a novice to an expert. • 3 musical backgrounds to choose from. • 5 types of blocks to manipulate. • The 2-player option puts you head-to-head against a friend with the Gear-to-Gear cable.
