Two puzzle game juggernauts collide as Tetris®, one of the largest-selling and recognized brands in gaming history, and Puyo Puyo™ from SEGA have combined to create a fun-to-play, fast-paced, competitive party game like no other!
Here's a quick rundown of all the different ways to play:
Adventure - Single-player mode offers ten unique acts, each with ten stages featuring different characters from the Puyo Puyo and Tetris universes. Each stage contains unique challenges players will need to overcome in order to win and move on!
Multiplayer Arcade - For up to four local players, Multiplayer Arcade offers a wealth of game variants that will bring out players' competitive nature!
Versus - Players compete head-to-head in either Puyo Puyo or Tetris to fight in the puzzle fight of their life.
Swap - Players' abilities are put to the ultimate test when they compete on both Puyo Puyo and Tetris boards, which switch back and forth at set intervals.
Fusion - A true hybrid game where players compete with Puyos and Tetriminos together on the same board, requiring deft, on-the-fly thinking to become victorious.
Big Bang - It's a race to the finish as players compete against each other to clear unique challenge boards as quickly as possible to win.
Party - Players compete on Puyo or Tetris boards, but the puzzles feature special items that when activated either help players or harm their opponents.
Online - Players can try their puzzle skills on a global scale by playing any of the multiplayer modes with up to four players online in Puzzle League or Free Play modes
Puzzle League - Increase player rating, earn ranks and aspire to new leagues in this mode for competitive enthusiasts.
Free Play - A more casual experience where records aren't kept and players can customize matches with unique settings, and invite their friends to play.
Replays - Players can save and upload any online matches to show off to their friends, or search other players' replays using the tag and filtering system to see how they tackle matches.
Solo Arcade - Play any of the Multiplayer Arcade modes against the CPU in Battle or Endurance matches, or try single-player challenges:
Battle - Substitute human players with 1-3 CPU opponents to fight against simultaneously.
Endurance - Go the distance in a one-on-one gauntlet of never-ending CPU opponents, racking up as many wins as possible.
Challenge - Forget about the opponents and put skills to the test with Sprint, Marathon and more, like the quirky Tiny Puyo, which shrinks down Puyos to fit even more on the board.
Puyo Puyo Tetris will be the site of many contentious local- and online-multiplayer fights for puzzle superiority when the two games collide in spring of this year.

Can activate the £5 incentive from TCB at the same time to get £5 cashback for this as well (Credit where credit is due). For more info look here:
Does TGC report the tracked amount as full price or without VAT? Because if it's less VAT, it just falls under £20 to quality for that offer.

Yeah this is another thing that's putting me off Switch, Nintendo are so out of touch with digital pricing. Some 6 year old Wii U games still cost more than the original retail price.
This is exactly the sort of game that I'd never play if I had to go to the effort of putting the cartridge in :disappointed:
When there is no support of digital from gen to gen with Nintendo or Sony, why would anyone has to bother buying digital? To be honest, Microsoft is only place worth buying games digital from. They are always great with backwards compatibility and supporting it at no extra charge. Look at Sony, they ask you to pay for the very same game everytime they release it on their next gen. You buy a PS1 game for PS2 and repeat the purchase on PS3, PS4 and every other time you want to play it on a new console!

Probably a great game but I couldn't imagine paying £25 for Tetris in this day and age.

When they released Tetris back in 1 980s it had the same RRP . I see your reason has nothing to do with the time we are living at. cheeky
P.S: I don't think back in the day people could get £5 cashback from TCB for their purchase. :smile:

Oh yeah I agree you'd have to be mad buy digital in many cases. But my point is that it should be a viable option, especially for games where you fancy a quick 5 minutes blast while the dinner is on and it's convenient just to have it there on your system without messing around with discs (or cartridges in this case).
Things like lack of manufacturing costs, storage, shipping, etc should allow much greater room for savings, but Nintendo in particular are just too damn stubborn to budge even if it costs them new users and cause yet another new console to fail. Therefore their approach isn't actually getting them any more money in the end. Lesson of the day: Nintendo are greedy and stupid.

Very good price for physical, especially how hard it was to track down on launch.
Personally went digital using cheap credit on the US store, I'm too lazy to swap cartridges :smiley:
