Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is basically Puyo Puyo with a Sonic makeover—which, honestly, works way better than it should. Instead of colorful blobs, you're dropping beans (because Robotnik's a mad scientist, I guess?), trying to chain combos while the AI relentlessly dumps garbage blocks on your side.

The first few matches feel deceptively simple, but then you hit that one boss who absolutely wrecks you with a five-chain out of nowhere. The music’s got that classic Genesis screechy charm, and the sprite work makes Robotnik look extra smug when he’s about to crush you. Saving Beanville’s citizens is just an excuse to keep playing—really, you’re here for the panic of watching your screen fill up while scrambling to set up a counterattack.

It’s the kind of game where you lose three times in a row, swear you’re done, and then immediately hit "Start" again.
