Bust-A-Move Pocket? More like Burst-A-Blood Vessel. How can we manage to upgrade from the SNES sprites and somehow downgrade from there? What a messy start for the continuation of the saga to find a colorblind-friendly Bust-A-Move game.

To start things off, the character roster is nowhere near as charming as Bust-A-Move 3. All the characters feel like the devs were playing it too safe, meaning that they lack soul and they have no swag; they look like rejected Mario Wonder enemies.

This version has pretty much the standard fare of Bust-A-Move modes. Survival, Endless, Versus; they're all pretty much the same as previous iterations of Bust-A-Move, nothing noteworthy to mention here.

Colorblindness Rating: F-
Whyyyyy is the grey so similar to pink. Why is the orange so similar to red. I'll even mistake green for yellow and orange for green sometimes, it's crazy how much of a regression this game is!

Damn, here's to hoping this next one is any better.
