Play Don-Chan Puzzle - Hanabi de Don (J)(Caravan) Online

Game Overview

Don-Chan Puzzle - Hanabi de Don is one of those weird little GBA games that somehow sticks with you. You're sliding fireworks tiles around to match colors, but the real magic is how everything syncs up with Don-chan's drumming—mess up the rhythm and suddenly your screen's a chaotic mess of half-matched explosions. The Caravan mode is perfect for when you've got five minutes to kill, though I've definitely lost whole bus rides to "just one more try" at beating my high score.

The music's got that classic taiko energy, all shamisen riffs and festival beats, and Don-chan's over-the-top reactions when you chain combos never get old. It's the kind of game where you'll fail spectacularly at first, then suddenly everything clicks and you're in the zone matching tiles without even thinking. That cartridge still lives in my GBA case years later.
