    This may be a bit of an unpopular opinion but I’m not a huge Tetris fan. I enjoy playing Tetris every once in awhile for 10-20 minutes but it’s not a game that holds my interest for very long. So this game is Tetris and some other puzzle game called Puyo Puyo.

    I guess its popular but my brain couldn’t quite grasp what I’m supposed to be doing. I have no idea what Puyo Puyo is.

    I guess its popular but my brain couldn’t quite grasp what I’m supposed to be doing. I have no idea what Puyo Puyo is. So what the game is, both Tetris and Puyo Puyo mixed together. I really struggled with it because I don’t get Puyo Puyo. I’m decent at Tetris but I’m not an expert or anything like that. I keep it simple and try to remove one line at a time.

    This seems like a very well made Puzzle game but its just not for me. I can’t justify spending $40 on this game when I can download Tetris on my phone for free and play like once every couple months for short sessions.    … Expand

    It's a twist on Tetris that feels welcome. Not much new to see since it's just two classic games combined. Online play works well.

    Puyo Puyo Tetris
    Fun for a little while
    Puyo Puyo Tetris is a game where puyo puyo and Tetris cross paths... There are tons of modes here bringing the 2 games together as well as keeping them separate… I was surprised to learn that there is actually a campaign here… The campaign consists of 10 acts with 10 battles each and tells the story of how this whole Tetris and puyo puyo cross    Puyo Puyo Tetris

    I was surprised to learn that there is actually a campaign here…
    The campaign consists of 10 acts with 10 battles each and tells the story of how this whole Tetris and puyo puyo cross over happened…
    Everyone has played Tetris before but if you haven’t it’s arguable the best puzzle game ever made..
    Where shapes fall from the sky and you try to clear lines by stacking them...
    And puyo puyo is a much lesser puzzle game where you have to try and get at least 4 puyo puyo of the same color to touch...
    And outside of the campaign there is a solo arcade mode where you can play against up to 3 computer players in a regular verses mode for either of the 2, fusion where you have to deal with Tetris blocks and puyo puyo at the same time, swap where the game randomly switches between the 2 game modes as you try to knock your opponent out, party mode where you’re dealing with special items. .this mode is complete mayhem and just a little too much for me, a big bang mode where you choose the game type you want to play and try to clear patterns the fastest, and finally a challenge mode where you chase high scores…
    There’s also muti player arcade to play local games and an competitive online mode where you can set up a lobby or play ranked matches and see how bad at Tetris you actually are…
    I’m a bit of a Tetris fan.. puyo puyo not so much…
    thankfully the game feels pretty great for both game modes but there are some definite issues trying to playing using the analog stick.. It’s way too easy to accidentally drop a block while playing... so I recommend playing this game with a dpad and nothing else…
    At the end of the day I don’t find Puyo Puyo Tetris to be anything special...
    its Tetris with gimmicks multiplayer and a bad wanna be attached…
    Its more for Tetris fans than anyone else..
    I don’t see this game making any new fans for either of the 2 game modes…
    I give Puyo Puyo Tetris

    I love Tetris. Puyopuyo as a creative tetris-clone is ok but I still prefer the original. As to me, Tetris is more of a chill-game to relax, the difficulty here is quite hefty. You can change the difficulty but single player campaign still is far from easy. For those who seek a challenge, it's probably perfect. For my personal taste: still a nice game but too quickly way too difficult.

    What can you say? It's two of the most famous puzzle games in a single package. The story mode could use less annoying characters, but the multiplayer is so addicting that it is easy to forgive most of it's shortcomings. A must for fans, but not a game that will turn many players into new followers

    It's no Towerfall; you'll still spend some time wondering how or why something happened, but at least you'll all be in the same blocky boat. [July 2016, p.96]

    Choosing between Puyo Puyo and Tetris is nice, though we'll never get why you can't just keep on playing Tetris for hours on end (while this is an option with Puyo Puyo). It's still a lot of fun, though.

    Puyo Puyo Tetris is a solid fusion of two distinct and entertaining puzzle games, resulting in a high quality, long-lasting and very challenging game.
