Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is a puzzle game for the Game Gear and Master System. It is a miniature version of its Megadrive/Genesis 16-bit counterpart, but contains a Puzzle Mode that is not present in the Megadrive version. In this mode, the player must take steps to solve increasingly difficult challenge puzzles. This game was also included as an unlockable game in Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut. Like the 16-bit game, Has Bean is the main character.

Bugs
The player's instructions in Lesson 11 of Puzzle Mode are incomplete. The player is only told to eliminate five waves of beans, when actually the game only counts the lesson as completed when the player also includes the lesson's one refugee bean in one of the five waves. The former can be done without the latter by first putting pink beans in columns 1 and 4, then putting a pair containing a green and a pink bean in column 1.
