There are 24 characters, all but the Black Pierrot being named after a tarot card (although the Strength card has been represented by two characters throughout the series). The game is normally played with two players (one may be a computer opponent), and chains cause the opponent's stack to descend faster. Chains are formed either when a single drop caused a chain reaction, or when more than one group of bubbles is destroyed in quick succession. Bubbles can be picked up and dropped by the player's clown at the bottom, and are destroyed when three or more of the same color are put together on a single column. Magical Drop ( マジカルドロップ, Majikaru Doroppu), sometimes referred to in Japanese as MagiDro ( マジドロ), is a series of puzzle games first released in the arcade, and later primarily for several platforms such as the Neo Geo Arcade, Super Famicom, Sega Saturn, PlayStation, Bandai WonderSwan, GBC and the Neo Geo Pocket Color most of which were published by Data East.Ī stack of random colored bubbles descend from the top, and a player is defeated when a bubble hits the bottom.
