For nearly every game in the excellent Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection there is a specific achievement, most being unlockable in the first few minutes of play. Others, like “Easy as Pie: Get 20,000 points only on Easy Mode in Columns” are actually quite hard, and require some skillz.
Luckily, I owned the original Columns back in the day and was familiar with a little trick in the game. This was later remedied by just about every puzzle game in existence, but in this one you can pause during play and the pieces remain on the screen. Which means that every time a piece appears, you can pause the game and assess the situation, placing the blocks exactly where you need them to go. It might take a while, but you can get 20k points easy that way.
