Baku Baku Animal (ばくばくアニマル Baku Baku Animaru) is a falling block puzzle arcade game released by Sega in 1995. Outside of Japan, the game was released as simply Baku Baku.[1]
Gameplay
The player must line up falling blocks of animals and foodstuffs. When an animal is aligned adjacent to a tile of its favoured food, the animal eats the food. Larger groups of connected food of the same type scores higher when eaten.
When animals eat foodstuffs also make random blocks fall on the opponent's area, right after the currently falling blocks. This being the purpose of the game, to make your opponent not be able to place more blocks.
Reception
IGN staff writer Levi Buchanan rated the cellphone version of Baku Baku 8 out of 10.[1]
