Kururin Paradise

Kururin Paradise is a 2002 puzzle video game developed by Eighting and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance. It is the second entry in the Kururin series and the sequel to Kuru Kuru Kururin (2001), which was released exclusively in Japan on December 6, 2002. A North American release of the game was planned and revealed at E3, but later canceled. The player controls Kururin in a constantly spinning helicopter, navigating through mazes to rescue members of his family, who he assumes were kidnapped by a group of traveling magicians. It introduces alternate paths that can be unlocked by finding keys in levels, which unlock additional levels. Additionally, a selection of sixteen minigames can be played in single-player and multiplayer.

The game received generally positive reviews, with praise for its introduction of new gameplay mechanics and minigames. It was also praised for its increased difficulty, being considered an improvement over the first entry in the series. Kururin Paradise was followed by Kururin Squash! on the GameCube in 2004, and was later re-released on Wii U Virtual Console on December 9, 2015, also exclusive to Japan.
