This week we take a look at three forgotten puzzle games. These titles didn't just slip through the cracks, they jumped.

July 10: Toki Tori
Our first title this week is Toki Tori on Gameboy Color. From Capcom, this game has players collecting eggs in over 60 puzzling levels. Be sure to check it out, this may be the only chance you get to see it.

July 11: Trouballs
Today's update focuses on the game Trouballs for Gameboy Color. Players match balls by rotating them around a field of gears. It's a race against time, and it's about time that you hear about it.

July 12: Magical Tetris Challenge
The final forgotten game this week is Magical Tetris Challenge, also for Gameboy Color. Magical Tetris Challenge takes the idea of two-player, competitive Tetris and turns it into a one-player affair with CPU controlled opponents. Add in the fact that these opponents are classic Disney characters, and you start to get the idea.
