Sega Game Pack 4 in 1 is a compilation of mini-games for the Sega Game Gear. It was only released in Europe.

Gameplay

Included are four games: Columns clone, a penalty shoot-out game, a rally game, and a tennis game. The tennis and puzzle games were recycled from Kuni Chan no Game Tengoku.

Columns
A falling block puzzle game based on the "Flash" mode in Columns. The player has to rearrange falling columns of gems to connect matching shapes in order to make them disappear. Instead of matching three gems in a row, column, or diagonal line, as in Columns, the player matches four shapes vertically or horizontally (including combinations of both), more similar to Puyo Puyo. To clear the level, players must clear all the flashing gems in the level. The game is over when the gems reach the top of the screen.

The player moves columns with Left and Right and drops them faster with Down. Their colors are cycled downward with 2 or upward with 1.

There are two difficulty modes (Easy, which has four different shapes, and Normal, which has five different shapes), multiple levels containing different flashing gems to eliminate (20 levels in Easy and 40 levels in Normal), and two different game speeds (Low and Mid). The player starts the game with three tries and loses a try when new shapes can no longer fit into the well, restarting the level from the beginning, and gains a new try after successfully completing a puzzle.

Penalty Kick
A soccer game based on shooting penalty shots. The player can select how to swerve the ball (left, center, or right) and how high to kick it at the goal (high, middle, or low). When playing as the goalkeeper against the computer, the player must save penalties by guessing where the shot will be placed. The player gets five kicks, then must defend against five kicks from the computer. To clear the level, the player must score more shots than the computer.

When kicking, the player makes a selection with Left or Right and confirms it with 2, then kicks the ball with 2. When defending, the player moves the goalie with the D-Pad: Down-left and Down-right defend low, Left and Right defend in the middle, and Up-left, Up, and Up-right defend high.

Pan-American Road Rally
An arcade-style racing game reminiscent of OutRun. The player must reach checkpoints to gain more time and stay in the race. The game ends when time runs out. Other racers appear as obstacles, but the game does not track the player's position in the race. There are five levels: the Northern Rockies, the Forest, the Salt Plains, the Heart of the Desert, and the Streets of the City.

The car steers with Left and Right, accelerates with 2, and brakes with 1. It shifts between low and high gear automatically.

Championship Tennis
A basic tennis game, with Sonic the Hedgehog making a cameo appearance as the umpire. There are four opponents of increasing difficulty. The first player to win 6 points wins the round.

The player moves with Left and Right. When serving, the player delivers a slow serve with 1 or a quick serve with 2. Otherwise, the player hits the ball low with 1 or lobs the ball high with 2, and the D-Pad can be held to direct the shot.
