Yoshi's Cookie , released on GameBoy, is a fast-paced puzzle game. The player moves randomly placed cookies into rows and columns of cookies with similar patterns. When a row or column of the same cookies is successfully assembled, the line will disappear, and the player can begin to work on a new row or column. The "Yoshi" cookie is very special in both the 1-player and the 2-player game. Since this cookie is the key to both games, it should be used wisely.
The gameplay involves strategy and quick thinking as players try to clear the board within the limited number of moves. The game also features a unique puzzle mode on the SNES version, where players have to solve 100 unique puzzles to clear the game board.
