Calcolo! is a puzzle/shooter hybrid in the style of Twinkle Star Sprites. The game plays like a scrolling Puyo Puyo, except the player can shoot unneeded blocks and pull off a number of different flashy special attacks. A stacking puzzle that sees numbered balls tumbling from the heavens onto the players and opponents screen. These balls can then be shot at in order to rotate them and clear the screen. Very slickly presented with shoot em up style backgrounds and special moves that can help clear the screen in no time. An intriguing cross genre mix up.
