A playthrough of Compile's 1995 puzzle game for the Super Famicom, Super Puyo Puyo 2.
Played through on the normal difficulty mode. I first play the easy mode, and that is followed by the normal mode. Both modes' playthroughs show their secret final bosses and endings.
Unlike the version that is now available through Nintendo's online SNES service on Switch, the game I'm playing here is in English. It has been patched thanks to a fan hack. If you'd like to find out more about that, check it out here: www.romhacking...
The Puyo Puyo series has been around since the days of the NES, and it's still alive, healthily kicking today. The games haven't always been known as Puyo Puyo in the west, though. Super Puyo Puyo 2 is a sequel to the game that in the western world was reskinned and released as Kirby's Avalanche (NTSC)/Kirby's Ghost Trap (PAL) on the SNES and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine on the Genesis.
Convoluted series history aside, the premise of the Puyo games, like all classic puzzlers, is a simple one: match three like pieces, get combos, and bury your opponent. The core mechanics have remained largely the same over the decades, with meaningful balance tweaks and features added to each new edition, and they're all still brilliantly playable.
Super Puyo Pop 2 is like Tetris or Dr. Mario in that it is accessible to everyone, but there is a ton of depth to the gameplay that really only becomes visible once you've played for awhile. Huge combos can be formed that can wipe out an opponent in one fell swoop, but the constant volleys of garbage puyo and an ever-increasing drop speed ensure that there's no such thing as a sure win. It keeps you on your toes.
The game looks and sounds great for a 16-bit title, and the series' signature sense of cute humor is here in full force. The playfields are filled with bright colors and objects being flung everywhere, the characters are as odd and diverse as you could hope for, and there is a ton of digitized speech given that this was on a cartridge. It feels surprisingly modern for a game that is 24 years old this year.
If you subscribe to the Switch's online service, do yourself a favor a give this one a spin. It's excellent.
