PUYO PUYO TETRIS (PC)
Best Multiplayer and Co-Op Games of February 2018
Taking a new and colorful spin on the classic gameplay of both Tetris and Puyo, Puyo Puyo Tetris combines them both into a harmonious puzzler ripe with fun.
Puyo blobs at the top of the screen come together to form blocks, which are then rotated before being placed at the bottom of the screen. As well, Tetris blocks called Tetriminoes fall and can be destroyed when a horizontal line of blocks all of the same color is filled.
The reason Puyo Puyo Tetris is making this list for February is because it finally released on PC towards the end of the month. Before then, the game had been available from as early as 2014 on different platforms including (get ready), 3DS, Wii U, PS3, PS4, PS Vita, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch. Unless Sega plans on bringing the title to mobile platforms or retroactively and unlikely adding it to the Xbox 360, the PC release should be the last release for Puyo Puyo Tetris after four long years.
There are five game modes that can all be played with up to four players both locally and online. Puyo Puyo Tetris released on PC on Feb. 27.
