Please bring them back and bring your games to your studio so they can know they’re saying good games. We love you, Sega. ### 2/5 — Great game, broken controller support on Mac *2026-01-19, version 1.8.0* Excellent entry- effectively a successor to Puyo Puyo 15th/20th anniversary and Puyo Puyo Chronicle. It’s an uncompromised experience, aside from the small pool of online players. However, the Mac version in particular suffers quite a bit— I was only able to get DualSense controllers to work. Xbox controllers, Nintendo Switch controllers, and even DualSense Edge controllers don’t seem to be recognized by the game. ### 4/5 — Love the game, but excessive loading kills the fun *2026-01-09* I love playing Puyo Puyo Tetris on our Switch, so when I saw this on my phone, I thought, now this is a way to practice making chains on my own and surprise-beat my family the next time we play on the switch. I wasn’t wrong, and it is fun when you are not interrupted. Whenever you change focus away from his game to answer a text or whatnot, however, even for a minute, it decides to reload, and it has about eight screens it makes you look at or select something on to get you back to where you were. There does not seem to be a way to save your state, so you just lose the whole match and you start all over again at the beginning loading screen whenever you come back to the app. Very annoying. ### 5/5 — Go Go Go *2025-11-05, version 1.8.0* Puyo Puyo ### 5/5 — ゲームはすごく楽しいけど *2025-08-16* ぷよポイントやマイルをたくさん獲得してゲームを一旦終えてまたやろうとしてたら獲得していたぷよポイントやマイルが少し減ってました。 改善お願いします。 ［追記］ アドベンチャーのCOMレベルを初心者でも簡単にクリアできるように調整してほしいです。しかもたまにCOMがアイテム使うので初心者ではかなり苦戦してしまう設定になってます。できれば初心者でも報酬がたくさん獲得できるように調整お願いします。チャレンジダンジョンは別に大丈夫です。 あと最近のアップデートの追加機能がちょっとイマイチですね。 今後のアップデートも期待してます。 ### 5/5 — My favourite game on Apple Arcade *2025-08-01* I love puyo puyo. I wish it had some more difficult duels but excellent game overall. ### 4/5 — Great game but bottled online :( *2025-07-24, version 1.8.0* The base game is great but the online mode seems to be just bots so that knocks it down a peg ### 4/5 — CS版発売待ってます！ *2025-07-10* ぷよぷよの新作！Switchとかプレステで出るんかな？と思ったらApple Arcadeで出て驚きました！ 不満点 タッチパネルでの操作はとても難しく、ミスを連発するなどのストレスを感じました。 今からプレイされる方にはコントローラーの準備をお勧めします。いやなんで準備せなあかんねん！CS版があるならこんな不満出なかったでしょ！ ストーリーや新キャラなどをアップデートでちまちま追加されるのはちょっと嫌でした、一気にドン！と出してくれたらもっと良かったです。 良い点 ストーリー良かったです！ 以下ちょっとネタバレ アコール先生のちょっと黒いところが無くなってしまったのは寂しく感じましたが、今作の優しいアコール先生も好きです！ あと、初登場の7からちょっとキツかったエコロのセクハラが無くなったのが良かったです。 他にも良いところはあるのですが過度のネタバレは良くないので秘密です！ ''CS版が出てたら''絶対に友人に勧めるくらい良いゲームなのでCS版発売検討をお願いします！ ### 5/5 — 너무 *2025-07-09* 너무재밋어요ㅜㅜㅜ ### 5/5 — goof game *2025-07-08, version 1.8.0* give me more sa......i mean uhhh... Dark Prince ### 5/5 — Animated *2025-07-03, version 1.8.0* Well made and colorful ### 5/5 — Question for future updates!! *2025-06-15, version 1.8.0* Are we ever going to get DLC characters? (i.e. Harpy, Serilly, etc., maybe even characters from the Puyo Puyo Tetris games complete with new 3D models for consistency purposes) ### 5/5 — Peak game *2025-06-02, version 1.8.0* I dislike tetris so an on the go english tetrisless Puyo game is great. Also, Carbuncle is funny. ### 5/5 — 連鎖ボイスの見直しは10年振り *2025-05-06* ファンなら夢の中で何度となくスマホで遊んだ記憶がある、正真正銘のぷよぷよの新作です 従来作で何度か訪れている夢世界のキャラとは繋がれない代わりに、ちょっとした進化が各モードのそこかしこに仕掛けられています 1月18日現在、連鎖アニメのレイヤーがぷよスキンの手前にあり、せっかく対応用の発火点を構えても相手の連鎖数を目で追えなくなる不具合があります 模範解答はぷよぷよeスポーツの頃に出ているので、アップデートを待ちましょう ### 5/5 — Kirby’s Avalanche *2025-04-23, version 1.8.0* Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine is so awesome and so cool, I love it and so do my grandkids. Five stars all around!! ### 3/5 — Middling version of Puyo *2025-04-19* Having played Puyo Puyo on countless platforms it's nice, in theory, to have this in my pocket. Except the implementation is rather weak and should have been better. The game is landscape mode only, which makes sense for most games, but not so much the blocks fall into a tall thin column type games. I get that I'm playing against an opponent, but their window could be greatly reduced in size or just disabled. Even on an iPad the size of actual part area is weirdly tiny. Give me the option, honestly I don't care what the CPU's play area looks like. Then there are the controls. I wasn't expecting much from touch screen controls for this and that's what I got. They're imprecise and difficult to use. The rest of the game is typical modern Puyo Puyo, such is to say pretty vapid and lacking the charm of the older games. At least some of the original tunes are in here. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 왜? *2026-04-29* 내가 뭐 잘못 안해도 갑자기 통신이 끊겼다면서 렝크가 떨어짐 무슨 이유인거임 해결하셈 좀 ### 1/5 — Ugly Game *2025-11-06* Ugly cheap looking game typical of the poor quality Apple Arcade gives us. Terrible tutorial that left me with no idea how to play. Deleted game. ### 1/5 — 망겜임? 사람이 없네 *2025-07-18* ㅅㄹ ### 1/5 — スマホでもぷよぷよ出来ると思ってたのに *2025-03-20* 操作性、最悪ですね。 ストーリーのCPUはスマホじゃ不可能な速さで8連鎖前後をポンポン打ってきます。 最速で操作しても、こちらが1つ置く間に相手は2つ置けます。 クイックドロップを押したまま左右が出来たり、本来プレイヤーが出来るはずの動きが出来ません。 思考に画面の動きが着いてこず気持ち悪いです。 そもそも操作ボタンの位置も気持ち悪い。 スマホ持ったことないんですかね。って思っちゃうような押しづらい位置にタッチボタン出てきます。 せめて自由にボタンの位置をカスタムさせて欲しい。 操作性さえ改善されれば文句無しの星5です。 ### 1/5 — Nervig und blöd *2024-12-20* Leider extrem nervig und billig gemacht. ### 1/5 — Interface is a Nightmare *2024-11-23, version 1.6.0* Basically impossible to just play a game. There’s a million options and it take five minutes to play anything. Don’t waste your time on this one. ### 1/5 — So darn hard *2024-06-30, version 1.3.0* It is a great game but it is so so hard. It would be nice if there were even more helper options and super slow options etc. ### 1/5 — Unbearable, deleting after 5 minutes *2024-06-24, version 1.2.2* Typical condescending Apple interface. Immediately offputting orientation lock, shoehorned in CPU opponents instead of true single player mode and of course, a $6.99 monthly fee instead of being allowed to ever own anything anymore. I don’t want to hold my phone sideways. Everything about the controls was unpleasant, horrible feel to the tapping input. Get it off my screen. ### 1/5 — Better than all the Puyo games on console *2024-06-14, version 1.2.2* But only on apple (: ### 1/5 — way too many blocking modals *2024-06-01, version 1.2.2* Not being able to quit the game when wanted isn't fun. Nobody wants to wait for multiple modals to close before being able to interact with the UI ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-09-04* This game is perfect. It’s a puzzle game much better than Tetris. ### 5/5 — yay more puyo *2026-08-26* i love puyo i’m happy to see a new puyo game after so long. pls more puyo segaaaa plsss ### 5/5 — 세가는 빨리 패키지판을 풀어라 *2026-06-27* 빨리 스위치스팀플스안드에서도 할 수 있게 해라 ### 5/5 — REALLY GOOD GAME *2026-05-28, version 1.9.0* fun <3 ### 5/5 — Top 5 GREAT stuff to do/use while playing: (part 2) *2026-05-12* (Continuing where I left off: 😅) 3. The characters, I LOVE the level mechanic for the CPUs, I main Arle cause I’m a beginner first joined on April yadda yadda all that stuff, I am planning to change my Puyo card character from amitie to Arle when I have enough Puyo points and all! I Absolutely recommend if you’re pro go for Yu and rei, they have such a sad backstory and how they become ghosts, but they ARE a duo, so yeah! 4. Teams, I absolutely LOVE when I bunch up with Yu and rei on the red team (team heart, that is), but it’s kinda disappointing since Yu (see what I did there?) can only do it with 3 or 4 players, other than that I recommend it for if you’re a multiplayer expert whatnot :P 5. Icon, icon, icon, icon, you can customize your icon, your icon will show up in battles, your icon is EVERYTHING, it represents who you are in the game, you could have it be Yu and rei and have it all purple, or you could have Arle from Puyo puyo quest and make the icon red for the backround and purple for the border, like I have, I absolutely recommend you go carbuncle with your icon and make it yellow cause you’re the KING/QUEEN of Puyo puyo, you deserve it! ### 5/5 — Top 5 GREAT stuff to do/use while playing: *2026-04-12, version 1.9.0* 1. Puyo touch, it’s amazing and I always use it! I recommend! 2. The puyos, you know puyo puyo is incomplete without the puyos, I like the feature that you can change the design of the puyos, but I stick with the “gummy” one, simply cause it’s adorable! I Recommend changing if YOU want your puyos to have different designs. ### 5/5 — it’s cool *2026-02-17* it’s so cool omg and nostalgic too, HIRE ME SEGA :3 ### 5/5 — this is the best modern puyo game out right now *2026-01-11* i bought apple arcade just to try this game out for a month. this is genuinely the best puyo game we've gotten since 20th anniversary all the way back in 2012. it is actually such a shame that sega put this on a SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE because this game is genuinely so good. ### 5/5 — Console-Quality Puyo Fun! *2026-01-08* As someone who loved the previous handheld Puyo Puyo games on DS, I’m so happy to have another English game in the series, playable on a handheld! This feels just like previous titles on DS and console. Cute characters and a fully-voiced story with dual audio! Packed with content and modes. The puzzle gameplay is fun and not overwhelming. If you want a cute casual game with a charming world and characters, this is PERFECT. ### 5/5 — KLUG MY BELOVED *2025-11-15, version 1.8.0* klug i reallyreallyreally love u ok? i lov u. ur my favorite stupid nerd ever i love uou. mick wingert thank u for making him sound SOOOO GOOD in en <3 mie sonozaki-san thank u for making him sound GREAT in jp <3 i will be married to klug by sunrise. i love you klug puyo. <3 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜ilvoe you so much oh mein gott. may gifted kid burnout never come after you <3333 please stay happy and cute forever i love you klug ok - leia --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
