Overview

Puzzle Bobble 4 is a tile-matching puzzle game developed and released by Taito for arcades (using Taito F3 Package System hardware) in December 1997. The fourth title in the Bust-A-Move series, Puzzle Bobble 4 adds a story to the main Vs. Computer mode (where the inhabitants of Rainbow World must find all of the Rainbow Bubbles), a brand new character roster (along with more-detailed attack patterns), and new gameplay mechanics (including "chain combos" for Versus Mode and new obstacles in Puzzle Mode). The game was ported to some systems as either Puzzle Bobble 4 (in Japan, mostly published by Taito) or Bust-A-Move 4 (outside of Japan, mostly published by Acclaim). It was ported to the Sony PlayStation (in 1998-1999), Sega Dreamcast (in 1999-2000, ported by CyberFront), Game Boy Color (Platform) (in 1999-2000, ported by Crawfish), and PC (Platform) (exclusive to North America in 2000 by Interplay). The PS1 version was re-released on April 2002 in Japan as part of the budget-oriented Simple 1500 (Franchise) series (as Simple 1500 Series Vol. 93: The Puzzle Bobble - Puzzle Bobble 4), and was digitally re-released in North America via PlayStation Network (Concept) for the PlayStation 3 (Platform), PlayStation Portable (Platform), and PlayStation Vita (Platform) by SCE America on April 29, 2014.
