The best of the Tetris knock-offs, this Japanese product adds some new moves, a plot of sorts, and great artwork. An excellent port of the arcade original. The built-in tutorial mode is also a nice touch.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is a custom English language version of Puyo Puyo made by Compile for Sega of America - the biggest difference is that the chan-style graphics and plot were ripped out and replaced with a Sonic-derived setup.

Nazo Puyo (Secret Puyo) takes the "Quest mode" found in many Puyo Puyo games and breaks it off into a game of its own. Whereas the usual Puyo Puyo gameplay is centred around beating an opponent by having a more skillful play technique, the puzzle mode (and all Nazo Puyo) games is a leisurly puzzle game where you have to fulfill a set goal on a screen already filled with a certain arrangement of Puyos.

Puyo Puyo is a Miscellaneous game, developed by WinkySoft and published by Banpresto, which was released in Japan in 1994.

An incredibly addictive and original puzzle game in which players must form chains of four or more beans (known as 'Puyos') of the same colour to make to disappear.

Players can hinder their opponent by forming Puyo combinations; a successfully formed chain removes some some of the player's Puyos and causes 'junk' Puyos to fall into the opponent's play area. As these Junk Puyos are transparent, they cannot be used to form a chain and can only be destroyed when a nearby chain is created.

Puyo Puyo is a Miscellaneous game, developed by Compile and published by Sega, which was released in Japan in 1992.

A falling block (in this game it's puyos) game in which the goal is the combine four or more blocks of the same color which then disappear. Just like the prequel, Puyos fall from the top of the screen in pairs, can be moved left and right, and can be rotated clockwise and counter-clockwise by 90

Sequel to the hugely popular Puyo Puyo. Though there is not much difference between this and the original, it is just as addictive and fun.

The object of this head-to-head puzzle game is to clear your grid of falling patterns called puyos by forming chains of four or more same-colored puyos in a straight line or one of several geometric patterns. What makes this a challenging two-player contest is the fact that when you clear a chain of puyos from your grid, it drops a random piece of filler onto your opponent's grid. The more puyos you clear, the more you fill your opponent's grid, and if you can clutter up his grid enough to fill it to the top, you've won the game.
