    A main series Puyo Puyo game, along the lines of the best games that never got released outside of Japan (15th, 20th, Chronicle), on all major platforms, with crossplay.

    In other words, the exact opposite of what Sega is currently doing to the franchise.

      I’m not a die hard Puyo fan,but I’ve played the odd one from nearly each generation, and I still go back to Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine.

      Absolute classic, only surpassed by it’s own soundtrack, a banger in itself.

        Puyo 1 is the Street Fighter 1 of puzzle games. First player to make a 5 chain wins, that’s it that’s the entire meta.

        TBH, it’s honestly a little sad to me that that’s the version western audiences know. Tsu’s offset mechanic is what made it into the greatest competitive puzzle game ever made, but that was never released here, so people don’t even know what they’ve been missing.
