Mindware Revives 1984 Magazine Puzzle as 'Lott Lott Lott Lott' for Steam
A 1984 hobbyist magazine submission, later adapted into arcade and Famicom versions as 'Lott Lott,' is being rebuilt as a new work with the original creator's permission rather than as a port of the Irem release.

Mindware will release the action puzzle game 'Lott Lott Lott Lott' for PC via Steam on November 7, 2026. It is a rebirth of YUKI's 1984 magazine-submitted game 'Lott Lott Lott,' made with the creator's permission. Players swap the contents of 16 rooms to control a ball and aim for a high score within a time limit. Yuriko Keino handles sound.
The original game ran on a lever and one button. The new version is played with a mouse alone, with sessions lasting 3 to 5 minutes and support for a USB MIDI pad and a 16-key extended numeric keypad as input devices for the 16 rooms. New rules let players rotate the board and open a wall in the upper right by exchanging all rooms, and dropping the single diamond to the bottom row doubles the score at that point.
