Having grown up with Mean Bean Machine, it's nice to see a version of the game that takes that basis and ups it just a little! Presentation is very solid, having two 'next' previews instead of one allows for more flexibility, counter chaining creates an actual back-and-forth... I would say this is the first time where I really "got" Puyo as a concept! AI is still rather rudimentary once you lock in and understand what the game's asking of you, and I found it defeating itself before I could do the really cool chain I was ready to unleash which made me sad, but it's a solid, fun romp that makes me want to check out the modern versions of the game! Which is good! I like that!
