Description:

Wrecking Crew '98 is a Japan-only puzzle video game released for the Super Famicom. It is the sequel to the Nintendo Entertainment System game Wrecking Crew. The game takes on a more competitive approach, featuring puzzle-versus elements akin to games like Tetris and Puyo Puyo. Such additions include chain reactions, as well as attacks unleashed into the opponent's play area upon successfully clearing lines.

Storyline:

Mario, on his way home from a trip, discovers that Bowser has been conducting a construction campaign of building high-rises in the Mushroom Kingdom, which are depriving the local plantlife of sunlight. Refusing to tolerate this, he brings out a mighty blue hammer from a chest inside his house and embarks on a mission to demolish the offending structures. Mario's old nemesis, Foreman Spike, along with several other foes from the original game, are out to stop him.
