Tricky Kick is a puzzle video game developed by Alfa System and published by Information Global Service for the NEC TurboGrafx-16 game console in 1991.
There are six scenarios in the game:
The puzzles consist of creatures scattered through a landscape littered with various obstacles. The object of the game is to maneuver pairs of the same type of monster or animal together by kicking them into straight lines until prevented by an obstacle; when a match is made, the pair disappears. The player controls different characters on each level.
C.T. slan of GamePro gave Tricky Kick a positive review, calling it "an extensive and challenging game that's great to take on with an audience. It's one of those carts that's bound to stir up a lot of group participation - everyone has their own strategy. My only knock on this cart is that the text is poorly translated from Japanese." [1]

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, released in Japan as Super Puzzle Fighter II X, is a tile-matching puzzle video game released in 1996 for the CP System II (CPS2) arcade board, by Capcom and its Capcom Coin-Op division. The game's title is a play on Super Street Fighter II Turbo, as there were no other Puzzle Fighter games at the time, and the game includes music and interface elements spoofing the Street Fighter Alpha and Darkstalkers games.

Barbie is a multi-platform video game developed by Imagineering for Hi Tech Expressions.

The game takes place in a dream where Barbie must travel through three different worlds to gather accessories before attending a ball to meet Ken. Despite it having been of little interest to typical gamers at the time of its release, critics including staff writers for Velikij Drakon and Allgame have praised it as "not bad" for a generic platformer. Others including Justine Cassell and Nathanael Ng of the Georgia Institute of Technology have advanced the view that its genre is not appropriate for its content.
