Collapse!
Game Boy Advance · 1999
About this game
The game concept is that you have to eliminate clusters of at least 3 blocks with your mouse, but the more you remove at once, the more you score.
Once that happens, all blocks above the ones, which have vanished, will fall down and close the gap.

Beneath the lowest row, there you see the new row building up.
Once all blocks are present, this row will be now the lowest row, while all others are moving up.
Once one block reaches the top of the playfield, you loose.
Each individual level has a preset value of rows, which will build up.
To win a level, all you have to do, is to prevent that a full vertical row (from bottom to top) gets stacked up.
The game offers 4 game modes: Traditional , Puzzle , Relapse , and Strategy .
Two of them need a brain, while the other two just need a fast hand.
Traditional works like explained above.
New rows show automatically, with increasing speed not only from level to level, but also in a level.
Means: the level starts slow, but in the end, new rows will complete every second.
Power-Ups are available in this game mode.
Relapse works exactly like Traditional , but with one major difference.
The action isn't just limited to the bottom of the playfield, in fact, both bottom and top now filling with blocks.
Power-Ups used on one side affecting both.
How to win is the same, but you loose, when blocks from one side touching the other.
Strategy is one of the two game modes where you must think.
Clicking fast will only help to see the Game Over screen.
New rows won't appear automatically, instead for each cluster you remove, a full new line will appear.
So you have to plan carefully before neutralizing a cluster.
Puzzle is the game mode, where no new lines appear.
Also there are no Power-Ups here.
But this is the most complex game mode.
Your task is to completely remove all blocks, if at least one block is still available, you loose.
There is also no time limit, so you can think as long as you want.

About Game Boy Advance
Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (2001) offered near-SNES-level graphics in a handheld and became a home for excellent ports as well as original titles across nearly every genre. GBA cartridges are generally durable and plentiful, making it an approachable platform for new collectors, though a few late-release RPGs and limited exclusives have become genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks Collapse! for Game Boy Advance with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Collapse! to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBA release dates back to 1999.
