  • Summary: [Downloadable Game] Hidden deep within the Hotai forest lives a family of playful and mysteriously colored creatures known as Piyos.

    Great fun. It's simple and yet complex at the same time, allowing players to jump in quickly and have some fun while also providing plenty of depth for anyone who wants to really dig in and master the game.
  2. Piyotama is slickly produced, hugely addictive, and the perfect alternative to Warhawk.
  3. A puzzler that's subtly rather than brashly innovative, and which has a wicked-looking chicken on the front.
  4. It's cute, it's clever and it can be replayed a million times. Not fair that Europeans have to pay twice as much for this game as the Americans!

    Disgustingly cute with relatively deep gameplay is the quickest way to describe this amazingly valued, at $2.99, PS3 download. Its more similar to Puyo Pop or Super Puzzle Fighter than Tetris, with a challenging new combo mechanism. Piyotama is a fantastic value and a fun game to boot. The cute factor is out of control which can be good or bad depending on your taste. Expand

    Simple game to learn and fun for a short time. It's a game that you play every now and then.

    Its a weak atempt (and failure) at an inovative tetris/connect 4 knock off, though possibly worth the extreamly low and reasonable cost of the game.
