Mega Drive version
Incorrect victory in 2-player Flash Columns
In a 2-player match of Flash Columns, if player two clears their flashing jewel after player one had just let their jewels reach the top of their playing field, then player one will be incorrectly declared the winner.
Not fixed in any version.
Game Gear version
Score/block overflow
If the player plays long enough to reach 69,999 blocks cleared or 999,999 points, both counters will eventually overflow and show weird values. The block counter would loop back to 10,000, but the score will display letters. Overflowing the score may sometimes result in the game crashing and rebooting back to the Sega logo.
Not fixed in any version.
