As a follow-up, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 does manage to add the occasional extra twist, some tweaked timing, and a whole new round of puns but this enjoyable puzzle game doesn't add enough to the core gameplay to justify a sequel, however charming it is.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 doesn't do much to differentiate itself from the original, which isn't a bad thing in my eyes.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is an extremely valid crossover puzzle game, but that doesn't do much to offer innovations compared to the first title.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 isn't the game-changer that the first Puyo Puyo Tetris was.

A crossover of two great gaming concepts that feels a bit lackluster.

If you are looking for something more than what you saw in the 1st entry in Puyo Puyo Tetris series, you probably can't find much other than the Skill Battle mode, although you will still be fully entertained if you are into this type of games. In a nutshell, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is almost the same game as its predecessor with same old issues but much better visuals, and as entertaining.

A simple and charming fusion of two puzzle classics, but one that only incrementally improves upon the previous release.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is another great game of Tetris and Puyo Puyo, following the great revival that both IPs received in this last generation. Whether offline or online, the amount of content featured here is more than enough to satisfy both newcomers and veterans.

SEGA snookered itself a little with the original Puyo Puyo Tetris. The reality is that that game was so perfectly complete that whatever came next was going to feel slightly diminished because its core strength - the ingenious ability to combine two very different puzzlers in a cohesive manner - was no longer new and exciting. Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 does everything that original game did. It's every bit as charming, entertaining, and downright fun. The problem is, it doesn't have the same impact now, and if there is going to be a Puyo Puyo Tetris 3, the development team is going to need to come up with a new trick, else the prestige of the oddball crossover is going to start to fade.

What this sequel does is keep what worked so well about the original while adding to or refining everything else. Clear, expansive tutorials make it more approachable, a variety of online Puzzle Leagues make the depth of online play stronger, and the new Skill Battle mode adds a smart twist to the gameplay. This is a vibrant and enjoyable puzzle game that is packed with content and variety.

Just like the first game, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is a joy to play. Whether you love just Puyo Puyo, or Tetris, or both, you’ll find something to enjoy here. Beautifully presented with over-the-top characters, larger-than-life animations and a bright and bold colour palette, it’s a game that’s impossible to play without a silly smile on your face. Apart from when you’re losing, that is. But you’ll always pick yourself up and play again – it’s too infectious not to.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is essentially a carbon copy of the first game except it has a new mode and a different story-based adventure. Because of that, I can't help but feel like it could have been DLC instead of a brand new separate game.

You don’t see puzzle games that are as ambitious and well-executed as Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 very often. While not every single idea it offers fully sticks the landing, the broad majority of it vastly outclasses the majority of games that are like it. Puyo and Tetris have been around for a long time, and if you want the best of both worlds, look no further.

Although Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 contains a variety of game modes, unfortunately, some of these modes weren't of good quality so it would've been better if the devs focused on the quality of modes rather than how varied they are, still it remains a unique experience, especially when it's shared with others, whether with friends or online.

I may be sounding way too harsh, but don’t get me wrong, this game is tons of fun and stupidly addictive. Sega, once again, delivered a colossal puzzle title that could easily become an e-sport staple. It’s just more of the same. At a cost.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 is a delight. A charming puzzle game that can be challenging in many ways, but delivers a wholesome vibe for the younger audience, while intending to push the intellect of many that have played both Puyo Puyo and Tetris in their own respect.

Overall, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, much like its predecessor is a great game. Once again it combines two of the all-time great classic puzzle games. That not only make both games shine but innovate on both in a new and unique way. Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 builds on this further with the addition of modes such as skill battles while keeping the charming music and art style we expect from a Puyo Puyo Tetris collaboration.
