description Yosumin! LIVE Overview
Yosumin! LIVE is a tile-matching puzzle game published by Square Enix for Xbox 360 through Xbox Live Arcade in 2009. Players identify four matching corner pieces that define a rectangle, causing the enclosed area to be cleared and creating opportunities for larger combinations. This corner-based rule distinguishes it from conventional match-three games, while its timed challenges and multiplayer modes adapt the earlier Yosumin format for console play.
help Yosumin! LIVE FAQ
How do you actually play Yosumin! LIVE on Xbox 360?
You scan a grid of colored "yosumin" tiles and select four matching pieces that sit at the corners of a rectangle, which clears everything enclosed inside it. Building bigger rectangles clears more tiles at once and is the key to high scores and chains.
Is Yosumin! LIVE related to the original Yosumin game from Square Enix?
Yes, it is the Xbox Live Arcade version of Square Enix's tile-matching puzzle game, published for Xbox 360 in 2009. The concept had already appeared as a free web/PC puzzle game, and a Nintendo DS version (Yosumin DS) was released in Japan in 2007.
Can you still buy Yosumin! LIVE in 2026?
Not through official channels. It was delisted from the Xbox Live Arcade marketplace years ago, and Microsoft closed the Xbox 360 storefront in July 2024, so new digital purchases of the game are no longer possible.
