In the One Player mode, you just have to keep going and the blobs will keep coming faster and faster.

Puyos are considered touching if they are directly connected either horizontally, or vertically.

You can rotate these and move them freely. Two puyos of random color are dropped each time. As testament to the game's excellence, the series has taken on a life of its own, with many sequels, and it is today no longer labelled a " Tetris clone."Īs with all great puzzlers, the concept of the game is very simple: the basic goal is to get 4 or more jelly/blobs (called "puyo") of the same color to be next to each other. Alexei Pajitnov's blockbuster Tetris spawned many clones, but Puyo Puyo is one of the more worthy derivatives from the whole falling-blocks craze in the early 80s.įirst released on the Mega-Drive console by Compile, Puyo Puyo has all the qualities that keep puzzle fans hooked to the screen: bright, colorful graphics and great gameplay that not only gets you addicted, but also gives you a sense of accomplishment once you defeat your Puyo adversary, be it computer or human.
