Magical Drop III

April 8, 2021

For Family Classics, we highlight titles that the whole family can enjoy. Colorful graphics, fun sounds, approachable gameplay, and more, it’s all here each week with Family Classics.

This week’s Family Classics is Magical Drop III (1996), the third installment in the colorful Magical Drop series. Clear the screen of constantly advancing marble-like objects called ‘drops.’ Controlling a clown character, the player throws colored drops in attempts to form matching chains of three or more. The more you match, the more drops are removed and the better your chain bonus.

Magical Drop III can be played in single-player or versus modes. Versus mode allows you to pick your own unique character, each with his or her own counterattacks and abilities.
