Puyo Puyo Fever is a puzzle game for the PlayStation Portable that revitalizes the classic Puyo Puyo format with enhanced visuals and a hand-drawn aesthetic. Introduced in this iteration is Fever Mode, which intensifies gameplay as players fill a fever gauge. The game features an expanded character roster, supporting two-player competitive modes, though it lacks a four-player option.
Updated version of the classic Puyo Puyo puzzle game featuring the all-new `fever` mode. Better known in the west under the titles Puyo Pop, Kirby's Avalanche and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Puyo Pop Fever still follows the classic bubble-popping format (align four or more `puyos` to make them pop), but Sega also delivers completely overhauled visuals with a more hand-drawn look, an expanded roster of characters, and a new `Fever Mode` that cranks up the action to frantic degrees once players fill a `fever gauge` on their screen. Although a four-player mode didn't make the cut, two players can go head to head and compete for points or survival.
