Released on February 10, 1995 in Japan at a retail price of 8,880 JPY.

Dharma Otoshi Inspiration: The game’s core loop is a direct, digitized translation of the classic Daruma Otoshi children’s game, where the objective is to knock sections out of a wooden stack without the top pieces falling. By adding a timer/move-limit mechanic and a competitive "spirit attack" system, the developers created a deep, tactical experience out of a simple physical toy.

Asymmetric Character Gameplay: The game offers two distinct styles of play based on character selection. The monk challenges players to manage the pressure of a ticking clock, while the shrine maiden focuses on efficiency and strategic foresight by limiting the total number of moves allowed—a clever way to double the game's replay value.

Home Conversion Improvements: While the 1994 arcade original featured more visual flourishes and varied backgrounds, the Super Famicom version is frequently cited by fans as superior due to gameplay streamlining. By removing the need to manually move the character to strike blocks and instead automating alignment with the furthest block, the home port significantly increases the pace and fluidity of the action.
