Regional & Version Differences

Title Screen

The original release in all territories featured the same name, with the only difference on the title screen (besides copyright) being the logo used. While the rerelease as part of Konami GB Collection Vol. 4 in Japan still kept this name, for whatever reason the name was changed to Block Game when it was released in Europe on Game Boy Color as part of Konami GB Collection Vol. 2.

Japan (Original)	US/Europe (Original)	Japan (Collection)	Europe (Collection)

2P Match Play

The ability to play multiplayer with 2 people was removed from the Collection rerelease in both Japan and Europe.
