Red theatrical curtains frame the top corners. Below the title, a smaller subtitle reads "KIDS Z!" with "INSERT COIN" text underneath.

Poitto! is an arcade action game released in 1993 by Metro and Able Corp. Players control a character who must clear stages by manipulating blocks or objects to defeat enemies and progress through each level. The game features a top-down or single-screen puzzle-action structure where timing and positioning are key to survival. Rounds are structured as discrete stages, with increasing difficulty as players advance. The controls involve moving the character and interacting with the environment to neutralize threats. Poitto! sits within the block-clearing action genre, similar in spirit to other arcade titles of the early 1990s that combined movement-based gameplay with enemy management across compact, self-contained screens.
