Columns Crown (コラムス クラウン, Koramusu Kuraun) is a puzzle game developed by WOW Entertainment[1]for the Game Boy Advance and published by Sega in Japan and THQ in other territories. It is the first spiritual sequel of Columns and was released in Europe on December 7, 2001, in Japan on December 13, 2001, and in North America on February 4, 2002.[2] There were also releases on Twin Pack cartridges bundled with Sonic Pinball Party in 2006[3] and another Twin Pack cartridge bundled with ChuChu Rocket! in 2008.[4]
The puzzle style is "tetris-esque", with falling vertical blocks of three coloured gems, with matching gems being destroyed. There is a basic plot of rescuing the stolen kingdom's crown by winning games.[5]
There is a power-up feature, with different potential attack and defence features being possible to use, with most only being available during player-to-player versus games.[5]
IGN gave a negative review to Columns Crown, saying that while the versus mode was enjoyable with use of the power-ups, the game as a whole was much less addictive than other similar games released on the Game Boy Advance.[5]
