This is a rare game that I've wanted to play for quite some time and I finally get the chance to play it. It's called Bisketan Poi (Bisketan "Boy" in the manual.txt for some reason) and the game is based on the wildly "semi" popular "community" character, Biscuit (or Bisketan). Bisketan is some kind of fan created character based on Kentucky Fried Chicken...lol. Yeah, the Japanese create some really crazy stuff. You can read this link to get more info about Bisketan:

I state that Bisketan is "semi" popular, because while there are lots of different artist interpretations of said character, there doesn't appear to be much information on the origination of the character in general, only that it is based on KFC and that it has become a traditional Japanese meme. This is the only game that I know of where you can play with the KFC fan character. There are other meme characters in here too.

The game is simple, but it's okay. You grab tons of fruit for points and grab enemies and toss them. You create combos by throwing enemies into other enemies or through lines of fruit and you can uncover hidden layers of fruit by throwing enemies at particular spots. There are a couple of powerups, such as an item to freeze your combo counter and a "homing" powerup which causes nearby fruit to float towards you. The game is a strange hybrid of various other games. The game, at a glance, might immediately make you think of Bubble Bobble, but as you can see during my play of the second world, the screen scrolls and the game begins to set itself more apart.

Enjoy.
