    Puyo Puyo Champions is a near perfect for hardcore puzzle game enthusiasts, but casuals may want to start elsewhere.

    Puyo Puyo Champions ably covers the essentials of the series at a great price point. The inclusion of the Fever ruleset provides something of interest for veteran players and the most enthusiastic of new fans created by Puyo Puyo Tetris, and should be at least considered for any party game library. However, the lack of other single or multiplayer modes or a real tutorial make this less of a definitive entry-point or second helping for newly created casual fans than it perhaps could be.

    Puyo Puyo Champions is very fun. Its modes offer hours of entertainment, especially with its online mode, although playing alone is less fun. A game that complements its objectives and stands out in the Switch catalog.

    Puyo Puyo is a puzzle game you pick up for just five minutes, but before you know it you are playing for hours straight. The classic version of this game is amazing, which is good, cause there aren't too many modes to choose from.

    Don´t expect any flashy new features, but it works OK at providing straightforward fun with competitive puzzling.

    Puyo Puyo Champions, as its name suggests, first addresses the most passionate who will have the audacity and ability to play it online against fierce opponents. However, despite its multiplayer focus, this new Puyo Puyo is still home to the jovial and fun puzzle game it has always been, in its most fun, colorful and cute look on this date.

    Puyo Puyo Champions is a fun, cheap entry into the world of Puyo Puyo, but don't expect to be playing it for very long.

    Puyo Puyo Champions feels like a game built with serious fans of the series in mind. Those looking for a gateway into this color-matching puzzler may want to try the far more content-full and approachable Puyo Puyo Tetris. If however, you’re merely after a cheap, multiplayer-focused, no-frills version of Puyo Puyo then Champions delivers.

    At its core, it’s still a super fun and well-crafted puzzle game. Despite issues with spinning up new players for the intended online eSports puzzle world, Puyo Puyo Champions has a smooth interface and a decent amount of options. It’s much more streamlined and optimized for multiplayer, though. This is a great option if you want to play this puzzler online against pros or locally with friends. If you crave a more light-hearted romp, Puyo Puyo Tetris is still available on this system and has a daffy story mode. Champions is primarily for the lionhearted.

    Un juego muy bueno para jugarlo en solitario, y grandioso para jugarlo con un amigo y/o rival en modo en linea.

    I love Puyo Puyo, but this just feels like a middle of the road release with frills like character selection. Good portable game and worth theI love Puyo Puyo, but this just feels like a middle of the road release with frills like character selection. Good portable game and worth the $5 I spent to get the nostalgia out. The real joy I get out of this game is its infinite mode where once you defeat a competitor a new one jumps in. Otherwise, playing one match and getting kicked out to the title screen is hardly enjoyable, unless you only have 2 - 3 minutes of time. Still better than Mean Bean Machine. Full Review »
