Sunday Longplay - Yoshi's Cookie (SNES) - Action Mode, Speed Hi

This week on Sunday Longplay, I'm playing another classic puzzle game from back in the early 1990s. Everybody and their grandmother knows about Tetris and Dr. Mario, but this was another one considered among them in the ranks of puzzle game addiction. Welcome to Yoshi's Cookie on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System!

In this game, the player is given a playing field populated with cookies of several types, arranged in a rectangular grid. The main objective of each level is to clear the playing field of all the cookies. The player mixes and matches the cookies such that entire rows or columns consist only of cookies of the same type. The player controls a cursor on the grid that is used to rotate individual lines in a manner similar to a 2D Rubik's Cube (Rubik's Square?). When a single row or column contains all matching cookies, the row is cleared from the grid. The grid grows in size from cookies entering from the top and right sides of the playing field and a game over occurs when the grid overflows. A sixth cookie type, shaped like Yoshi's head, occasionally appears that acts as a wild card, used to help clear lines of any other cookie.

There are two ways to play the game, with the SNES version adding a third mode. In the single-player Action Mode, the player completes successive levels that progressively grow more complex. A multiplayer VS Mode has two players competing against each other in split-screen. The Super NES version has a single-player VS Mode in which the player competes against a computer player. The Super NES version also contains a Puzzle Mode in which each level has a predefined grid of cookies and player must clear all the cookies in a maximum number of moves. I had already played the VS and Puzzle modes on my channel years ago (see the full playlist in the link below), so now let's tackle the Action mode!

There are 10 rounds of 10 stages each in Action mode, with a cutscene at the end of each round. However, the fun doesn't end after Round 10 Stage 10! After the end credits, you get a special code to access a new "Hard Mode" game featuring Mario characters instead of cookies, including one green shell on the grid that can only be cleared with a Yoshi cookie. This mode starts at Round 11 and goes all the way to Round 99, but that would take way too long, so I just jumped straight to Round 99 to show off the new ending afterwards.
