Type - Dramatic Puzzle

I must admit that I was quite impressed with this cash in on the Sakura Taisen license. The quality of the product is very good were as I expected just a quick re-hash of the original Columns. Presentation wise there’s not a bad word against it. There are many options of play including 1 player, Story mode, 2 player and 1 player vs.. The graphics within the main game are very pretty with beautifully rendered jewels. The audio is also pretty nice with renditions of the original Sakura Taisen themes plus original voices for each character.

Over all Sakura Taisen Columns is a very addictive game that’s well worth your attention. Even more so that the original Saturn Columns.  Also, don't forget to look out for your set of stickers that comes with the game.
