Summary
(Also known as "Puyo Puyo Fever") An updated version of the classic puzzle game featuring a new "fever" mode. Better known in the west under the titles Pay Pop, Kirby's Avalanche and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Puyo Pop Fever still follows the classic bubble-popping format (align four or more "puyos" to make them pop), but Sega also develivers overhauled visuals with a more hand-drawn look, an expanded roster of characters, and a new "Fever Mode" gives a new twist to completing combos and enhances the excitement level. Multiplayer Mode allows for players to compete head-to-head. The game introduces 13 new characters and a whole new story.

The best part is the fever mode, which adds a fresh element of counterattacking to the puzzle fighting genre.

If only it had a single-player mode to match the blinding multiplayer experience, it could even justify a further point. As it is though, it's an excellent multiplayer title and that's more than enough at the price.

There are few puzzle games that can match the panic associated with hearing the rantings of your opponent's character when they're about to drop a nuisance Puyo bomb of epic proportions on your screen, or the feeling of elation when your opponent's screen caves in.

An excellent version of a game people should really own already. [Mar 2004, p.111]

Only the gaming gods of this world can survive a high-level Puyo Pop showdown. Which is a better reason to own it than '...and your girlfriend will love it'. So for a fun, challenging alternative, give this a look.

Colourful and cute but there's a strategic puzzler underneath. [Aug 2006, p.82]
AceGamez
Still, as far as us "grown-ups" are concerned, I expect a lot more from my puzzle games, especially when they come from the normally creative genius that is Sonic Team.
