Play Tang Tang (U)(Mode7) Online
You’re a tiny guy dropping and deleting blocks on the fly—sometimes to climb, sometimes to trap enemies, always barely making it work before the level outsmarts you. That floaty jump takes getting used to, but nailing a mid-air block toss feels weirdly good.
Tang Tang was a Japan only Game Boy Advance release from 2000, developed by Mitchell Corporation. It arrived early in the system's life, a puzzle platformer that felt distinct from the more common action or RPG titles of the era.
You control a small character who must navigate single screen stages by picking up and placing blocks. The main objective is to reach the exit in each level, which often requires building staircases to climb or creating barriers to trap the patrolling enemies. The signature mechanics involve the physics of the blocks; they fall when released, so you must time your placements carefully to avoid crushing yourself or missing a jump. The pacing is quick, and the difficulty comes from figuring out the one correct sequence of actions under a constant time pressure. It feels like a race against your own mistakes, where every successful stage is a small, earned victory.
