Puyo Puyo Tetris has one of the most underrated multiplayer

I didn't realize this game was more than just tetris vs puyo puyo. There is an awesome mix of modes in the multiplayer that make it a blast to play. The multiplayer is also pretty seamless and I enjoy playing against people around the world. You can also play up to four players. Pretty glad I picked this game up because I didn't expect it to be this fun. Have you had a chance to play this game, SW?

Rules

Multiplayer

Versus

The basic battle rule. Each player can choose either Puyo Puyo (using Tsu rules) or Tetris (using SRS rules). A match can start even with players choosing different modes. If a Tetris player has at least one Puyo opponent, all Tetris attacks get stored in an Attack Gauge and only sent when a Tetrimino does not clear a line.

Swap

Each player swaps between Puyo Puyo and Tetris gameplay every twenty-five seconds. The game does not wait for the current piece to finish dropping before swapping, and the current piece will continue to drop (without player control) after the swap. Clears started before the change can combo with furthers clear in the current field, creating extra damage. This is called a "Swap Combo."

Big Bang

Similar to Versus, except the Puyo Puyo player is in Fever mode and the Tetris player has "Lucky Attack."

After each round of Fever/Lucky Attack, the nuisance created will be sucked into black holes and explode in the namesake revelation. Those who created less nuisance will have nuisance crashing the field. A player is eliminated when his field is completely shattered, and the last person standing is the winner.

Party

The players compete for score and can use items in battle. Items can be a personal buff or a debuff sent to other players.

Fusion

In an 8x16 board, both Puyos and Tetriminos fall following character-specific dropsets. Tetriminos can crush stacks of Puyo and only color Puyos reappear later from the top. Similar to the Active rule in Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary, the next pieces can be dropped even when a chain is in progress of clearing, or when a Tetrimino is left to slowly crush Puyo.

The dropset consists of eight Puyo drops (post-Fever), two Tetriminos and one special drop, which can be a piece that switches repeatedly between Puyos and a Tetrimino, or a golden 1-to-2-block Tetris piece.

I bought it. Havnt played it much as i mainly just play Zelda still. Was fun opening the game cause it took me back in the day. I even dented the box some.

The demo is good enough for me, especially since you can play local MP against someone else

Still prefer Tetris DS

I know one thing, its an awesome party game to have when people visit.

Some of us were ahead of the game as far as gassing up Puyo Puyo Tetris.

Yeah it's great.

I got it for my Switch when it released but I've not played it a great deal yet as Zelda is still taking up all of my gaming time. Which is not that much during the summer. I prefer to be doing stuff outside when it's hot and sunny, it rare in England so I like to make the most of it.

Will catch up when the shit weather rolls back around.

Can't stand the boot up 'SEEEGAAA' sound effect though.

I own it and love it. Great game.

It's great but my God do I get absolutely destroyed by Puyo Puyo players online.

Still excellent fun. :)

Sounds pretty terrible compared to the original.

They may as well got Peppa Pig to of done it.

Screechy girl: "SEEEEGAAA."

Me: "I am an adult." :)

Yeah, it's uh... the whole plot to that game is sort of cringy though. It's just the nature of playing as chibi characters I guess?
