The ''Mario Party DS'' version has a few changes to the minigame. In fact, it functions similarly to Mario's Puzzle Party Pro. The top screen reminds the player about the Thwomps, while the bottom screen shows the gameplay. When the player manages to clear the screen of blocks, then the player is awarded 1,000 points. Dropping pieces in this version is also instantaneous, where the piece immediately drops to the bottom after the appropriate button is pressed. In addition to this, there are levels, which speed the game up and increase points earned the higher they are. The highest level one can get to is 99. Every 40 points the player gets equals one [[Mario Party Point]]. The two-player version, however, plays more like the original Mario's Puzzle Party.

''Mario Party Superstars'' has three versions of this minigame. The first is the four-player version like the original version in ''Mario Party 3'', though this time there is no option to extend the target number of points beyond 100 in Free Play. The second is found in the Vs. Puzzles mode and is similar to the four-player version, only that players can change the target score and unless players are playing by themselves, CPUs do not participate. (Although when this minigame is played in a ranked game against another player online, the target score is always 300 points). The third version of this minigame is played under Score Attack, which, like Mario's Puzzle Party Pro, allows the player to get as many points as possible under three minutes. Like the aforementioned minigame, Brick Blocks fall into the playing field after every 100 points is reached.
