This review is from: Puyo Pop Fever (Video Game)

ok, then. I liked this game because it is somewhat original (look for puyo pop on the gba). I gave this game a 5 in fun because the in-game action is constant. I gave this game a 4 in educational value because you have to be looking at ALL times at your playing field, looking for possible matches. Gamecube disks are probably hard to break (none of mine have!)

3.0 out of 5 stars All it's 'popped' up to be?, February 26, 2008

This review is from: Puyo Pop Fever (Video Game)

Before I begin this review, let me say that I've never played a Puyo Pop game before this one.

Puyo Pop fever is an intense and quick-paced game. The aim of the game is to connect four puyos of the same color so they will go off of your screen. When you succeed in connecting four puyos, not only will they clear from your screen, but they'll send 'nuisance' puyos to attack your opponent.

However, the aim of the game isn't too just connect four puyos of the same color. It's to create combos. Setting up even a combo of three sets of four puyos can send some intense game-changing damage over to your opponent, and vice-versa. You want to be sure you send damage over to your opponent before they send damage over to you!

Another interesting twist to this game is that all nuisance puyo you send over to your opponent don't instantly go onto their playing field. Instead, they collect over your screen in a bar (it's hard to explain) giving the opponent a few turns to 'offset' your nuisance puyo. By creating their own combos, they are able to remove the nuisance puyo before it ever hits their side of the field. By offsetting, they go closer into going into a very powerful (almost too powerful) mode called fever mode. This gives them some quick chances to make huge chains.

The gameplay is fun, so I'm sure your wondering why it got a three. It got a three because the voices are really annoying. Sure, you can skip the horrible cut scenes, but even in game you hear the characters chants when they chain. The story makes very little sense, and is very childish. However, story mode can get very hard very quickly. I know I'm not the best at puyo pop, so maybe that's just me, but still. This game is too cute for many teens/adults, but too hard for younger children. If you can look past these flaws, the gameplay is great. Especially multiplayer.

This review is from: Puyo Pop Fever (Video Game)

This is a quality game. The idea is very different from Tetris so it's not just a clone.

The basic idea is to connect 4 puyos in any way. When you do that, you send a puyo over to your opponent -- this makes their stack reach the top of the screen faster so you can win.

But the real fun is figuring out ways to create chains that will really bop your opponent over the head with puyo (and cancel out any puyo they have waiting to drop on your head).

You will quickly pick up the game's simple controls, and mechanisms. But you won't find out what the game is really about until you play the cartooney Frankenstein like fella. You're obsession with understanding the his technique and mastering it (or creating your own) will send you flipping head over heals into puyo pop fever.

Lots of fun!!!!

Also, for those interested, you can have the words and all of the dialog in Japanese also, which makes for a very different and fun experience.

I'm getting this game for the NintendDS as well.

I think the cut scenese are corny, but you can skip those.
