mean bean machine

[David Han]

This game is kinda neat, but I can't figure out a strategy to play it well
in scenario mode. I can't get by the second guy. I've gotten close, but I
can't put together enough combos to put him away.

Does anybody have any tips on playing Mean Bean Machine? any sort of basic
strategy, what kind of colums to build to make multiple clears(or whatever
you wanna call escaping beans)

I was wondering what Puyo Puyo was like, actually. What it looked like, was
there a story behind it like in Mean Bean... that kinda thing. Does Puyo Puyo
mean anything?
I saw something in a magazine showing shots of Puyo Puyo 2 and I remember
something that looked like a big bean (or blob), does this happen in the
original game?

thanks,
Dave
