Description

Columns on the Sega Master System delivers Sega’s elegant match-3 classic in its purest form. Jewel stacks fall as vertical triads; rotate the order, slot them into place, and clear lines of three or more horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Chain reactions cascade as buried matches align, turning calm planning into sudden fireworks. Multiple modes keep the loop fresh, from marathon score chases to faster, pressure-cooker variants with rising speed. The minimalist presentation—clean tiles, subtle effects, and an earworm soundtrack—keeps focus on rhythm and spatial awareness. Difficulty scales smoothly, rewarding foresight, column management, and combo setups that rocket scores. Easy to learn yet deep to master, Columns remains a timeless 8-bit puzzle anchor for short sessions, high-score runs, and that soothing “one more try” groove on the Sega Master System.
