    With single, versus, and three endless modes, and 16 available characters, Fever is as addictive as it gets.
  2. The best part is the fever mode, which adds a fresh element of counterattacking to the puzzle fighting genre.

    It may not be much of a looker but it's damn near perfect. Keep in mind this is a budget-price title which makes owning it much more tempting.

    The game is of course best played with a friend, a truth that brings up a disappointing oversight: the total lack of a four-player mode. And the presentation is underwhelming.

    A pleasant surprise. It's a game that focuses on having fun and the fact that it stretches your grey matter at the same time is an added bonus.
  6. Without a doubt the best puzzle game on the Cube at the moment. It’s not as accessible as a Game Boy with "Tetris," but that’s simply because you can’t carry your Cube with you all the time.

Fever mode is a great addition to the game with pre-set chains making it easier for new players. New art style is cool too.

    The story is alright for a puyo game, not too difficult but not easy either.

    It's a potential classic puzzle game, but totally should have had 4 player.
