    This is the first game I've played that makes Tetris tedious and it's not fun at all. The bulk of the reviews for this game are fake and are no doubt made from associates of the developers. What's great about Tetris is its simplicity; this game tries to over-complicate things with so much unnecessary garbage, then throws in these annoying anime characters for an even more bizarre experience. Even with a discount, …

    A fine mix between 2 of the best puzzle games out there. It has a nice selection of game modes, good tutorials for each game to learn some tips and tricks and fun couch co-op multiplayer. While the story mode has some "turn your brain off" kind of writing and that it can get a little repetitive with it's missions, it's a fine addition nonetheless. Overall, an excellent game for it's price that can be enjoyed both as …

PlayStation LifeStyle gave the Vita version 8/10 and called it "an example of a franchise entry done right", somewhat disliking Big Bang Mode but with high praise for Adventure and Swap. Famitsu gave the game a score of 9/9/9/8. Eurogamer ranked the PlayStation 4 and Switch versions 24th on their list of the "Top 50 Games of 2017".

    Please do not buy puyo games on steam unless it's either *your* only option or it was your friend(s)' only option and you want to play with them. The steam versions are ultra dead and kinda cursed. PPT1 Steam especially plays like it was built with Cardboard and Saran wrap for the McDonald's Happy Meal engine. Other than that, fun characters, story, gameplay (when the steam version works). I'd highly recommend buying the game for the Nintendo Switch

    If you intend to play solo for Tetris, just skip this one. Puyo is a dumb game (for a Tetris-er). You have to play a lot of Puyo to get to Tetris. This is also made for online multi-play. If your playing solo (like me), you wont have a lot of fun. Very blah for me.

    This is the third time I've purchased this game and I'm about to get all achievements on it for the third time. The original I bought on the PS3, imported, because I was under the impression that this would never come stateside, given the reputation of Puyo back then. Then I bought it once again once it was localized, both on console and later on Steam. It's really wild looking back over a decade later and seeing how bizarre it seems, to me, that Sega would take a chance on localizing a…

Released on February 27, 2018, this title brings together the fast-paced block-clearing mechanics of Tetris with the colorful, chain-reacting gameplay of Puyo Puyo, creating a dynamic and engaging experience for players of all ages. The gameplay is divided into several modes, each catering to different…

    The Crossover was a big mistake, not only confusing but also the difficulty is not for beginners nor for avid fans of tetris, not even talking about how the japanese tetris (puyo puyo) is completely alien and how niche it is too. And then you got the DRM, If you want to play competitive Tetris, either Tetris effect or tetr.io (free to play competitive tetris), don't get this game, play those instead!

THIS IS NOT CLASSIC TETRIS nor dose it give the option to just play the OG game. 2 after just a few minuts i cant stand this game but im far to late to get a refund! i would gladly switch rights to a tetris OG on steam but steam i dont think can do that sadly >< 3 dont get this game unless you are wide awake and ready to get a refund. i will never buy a tetris game unless its ONLY TETRIS in title NOT COMBINED WITH OTHER THINGS!

    If it's on sale, and if you have friends and family to play with, this is awesome. Two great puzzle games, combined, with up two 4 players split screen competitive gaming, perfect for parties. The story has funny characters and it would be nice, but unfortunately it ends with level 3-4, because only an extremely lucky autistic cyborg can possibly beat 3-5, and that's an unusually small customer base.

    A very awesome spin on Tetris and Puyo Puyo, the addictiveness that got you hooked on Tetris is now more intense & interesting in SEGA's version. A ton of challenges and game modes ensures you won't get bored... ever! Add the bonus of SEGA's/Japanesy sounds and quirky characters this game doesnt dissapoint.

Open Matchmaking makes it so you can get Puzzle League matches with anyone albeit the wait times are fairly long due to a maximum of 40 people being online at any given time (you can sometimes even go an hour and a half with no match).

    The Story is enjoyable, but that's all there is. However, only the Storytelling is. In Story, a majority of the events you play, are just filler, Nobody wants to do, over 20 Trial Missions, that have zero relevance to the plot. The rest of the game is also an utter wreck. the Visuals are a cluttered mess, as well as the Character art, most of them have incredibly questionable proportions, and design choices. Sound effects too, especially the ones used for Puyo Puyo gameplay. They have zero…
