Several websites are reporting that a version of Puzznic was available for the MSX... but I can't find any proof of its existence anywhere Sad

Was it really available? Made by Taito? Or was it a Spectrum conversion made by Ocean?

I was so addicted to that game (and to the nude girls appearing in the arcade version) that back in the late 80s I lost three months developing my very own conversion of Puzznic in MSX Basic Big smile It worked, but it was painfully slow as hell Big smileBig smileBig smile Well, it was one of my two failed attempts to keep the MSX1 scene healty Big smile My other big (failed) project was a MSX BASIC conversion of no-other-than... MIDWINTER II - FLAMES OF FREEDOM :D:D:D

Hey, do you still keep the Puzznic's BASIC listing?, maybe you can try with a compiler, if it boosts the performance a bit it can be playable.
Another chance is perhaps, a XBASIC conversion...Smile

This one?

And to boost your own version, you could also try NestorBASIC...

Yep. The puzznic from Zemina is the same as Taito's Puzznic.

Quite a fun game.

This one?

Is it the same game? Because the original game was called PUZZNIC (with two "Z") while this game has only one :)
