If you slam a tetromino down, the Puyo that it goes through will shoot up and land on top of it. The screen is half full with Puyo and a tetromino block is on deck, so you have a decision to make: Eliminate your gooey friends or continue to pile on in hopes of securing a nice combo. The core mechanics of each game remain the same, but the logic behind clearing them is complicated. In Fusion mode, Puyo blobs and tetrominos fill the same grid. Sure, if you prefer one over the other, you can spend all of your time playing just Tetris or Puyo Puyo - that option is here - but the game really shines when these two very different styles of play come together. Thankfully, Puyo Puyo Tetris serves as a perfect reintroduction to Puyo Puyo by mixing and matching with our tried and true old friend, Tetris. The franchise has been a mainstay in Japan since its conception, but here, for whatever reason, we had been deprived of its charming, big-eyed blob creatures. For western audiences, this is the first time in more than a decade that a new Puyo Puyo game is available. Originally released in Japan in early 2014, the meeting of two puzzle giants has finally arrived in the states three years later. The game especially shines in multiplayer, which works particularly well on the Nintendo Switch
