(I couldn't find the Nintendo Power issue that had this game in it, so no specs this time.)

This is an interesting game where these red and blue potatoes scroll up the screen. You control a car (or something) with six potatoes in it (two rows of three each). Your job is to launch the potatoes from the car to make matches and clear the potatoes out of the way so the car can go through. This is a good example of a new concept presented in a good way. I didn't expect much from BAM!, but I was underexpecting this one. Although the graphics aren't all that great (I think this could have been done on the GBC), graphics aren't really all that much of a concern in a puzzle game.

 

up next: Bomberman Tournament.
