Numberblocks (1996)

Numberblocks (Japanese: ナンバーブロックス, Hepburn: Nanbāburokkusu) is a 1996 mathematics game created by Gavin Brown in his first game creation. It was developed by Magic Lantern Productions and published by Gavin Brown Interactive (worldwide except Japan) and Nintendo (Japan). This was also the first game to be released by the Numberblocks, and is the third franchise in the Learningblocks franchise in the Gavin Brown era. It was released in April 26, 1996 on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (formerly known as Super Famicom in Japan) in North America, Europe, Australia, and Japan. This game is Level 1, which contains learning numbers up to 5. The music used for the game is Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), but not just the characters, only the soundtrack.

== Characters and Appearances ==
These are the characters of the Numberblocks going up to 5. You'll select 1-5 players, and then choose the character you want, and make 2-5 players as a team.
# One: 1 is a small red cube with a circle eye on the front and a maroon mouth. She also has red limbs and has a black numberling on top of her.
# Two: Two has two orange blocks as his body, as well as two purple limbs and purple eyes that look like glasses. He has pink lips as of his debut. In his debut, he now wears a pair of white socks and a pair of magical orange sparkly dancing shoes as a permanent change. The sparkles on his shoes can also be loose, not being able to dance.
# Three: Three has three yellow blocks. She has red lips and orange eyes, and her limbs have a red-to-purple gradient. She also has 3 balls for buttons on her middle block to resemble a jester, and like most other jesters, she can juggle all 3 balls. She also has a jester hat on her top block that doubles as a unibrow; the triangular parts are red and the circular parts are yellow.
# Four: 4 is the Numberblock made up of 4 green blocks. His favorite shape to be is a square. Four is basically just a normal square guy. He loves squares but he has a fear of round things; thus, he does not like to play certain ball games. Four is very strong, and possibly very heavy; he also sometimes can't decide, and thus splits up into the Terrible Twos.
# Five: 5 is made up of 5 blue blocks. She wears a big navy (dark blue) glove she got from her reflection in the magic mirror as a permanent change, and her left eye is a star. Her eyes are dark blue, so are her arms and legs. She shares a fashion similar to 10.
