Anyone else a Tricky Kick fan?

The first two boards were probably the hardest... Not because they're actually all that hard, but because it takes those two levels to finally figure out how to "think" to be successful in the game.

yeah it involves a strange way of thinking and planning.

I just watched Starsoldier1's YouTube review (which is hilarious, thanks to him) and the game looks Japanese. Does it have a PC Engine releases, and if so, what's the name?

Oddly enough, the Japanese version is simply called "Tricky."

Ah, I see it now. I'll put it on my list.

Tricky Kick didn't do it for me.  Easily one of my least favorite games in the TG16 library.

It seemed like more of a chore to play than fun, which is always a fine line that is walked with puzzle games.

Very tough game, you make one simple mistake and boom you have to start all over again. I still liked the game though.

very frustrating.

I might have to place that game inside my system. Its nice when you read topics like this and it makes you want to rediscover one of the lessor played games in the collection.

SO this may be a necro-bump But, I do in fact LOVE tricky kick and I'm sure there are some new members out there who also love tricky kick.
Game has several very bright points for me:
 
1. I like the music, not fantastic but solid
2. I love the little cut scenes
3. I enjoy the strange anime styling of the game
4. I like the "thinking" and learning curve that is required to figure out the tricky puzzles in the game.  The idea of matching and squashing is something I always thought unique and different.

Not for everyone, but everyone should give at least two levels a try.  This one might surprise you, if you have not tried it out.

Good necro-post!  This game is a hoot.  I haven't been able to beat more than 2 or 3 of any of the stages for each character, but I think it's a great puzzle game.

I'm hella down with Tricky kick .. I usually play it after I go pick up some medication at my local dispensary .. Medicate and try beating some levels on that freaking difficult ass game! Proposition 215 and Tricky Kick both blow my mind anytime I give em a go !!

I f*cking loved Mole Mania, so if it's similar, it's my cup of tea.  Is it US only?

On the PCE it was just called Tricky!

EDIT : See NAT's comment a little earlier in the thread!

I was going to bump this post because I've been playing it a lot lately since I got a copy from Psychobear. It is a very fun and challenging puzzle game and I love it so far!
