Accord, teacher of the local magic school, has lost her magic flying cane. There is word of an award so the students are busy searching high and low for it. Naturally, our heroes Amitie and her school nemesis Raffine make their way toward the distant dark castle, challenging - and being challenged by - everyone you come across in a game of Puyo Pop Fever .
Puyo Pop Fever is a puzzle game where you clear blocks (Puyos) by combining four or more of the same color. This will produce Nuisance Puyos, which can block chains and combos your opponents could create. To counter this, you can try to "offset" by clearing your own Puyos and limiting the number that would fall on your screen.
The goal is to fill your Fever Meter, which gives you a set of prearranged Puyos for giant combos and sending Nuisance Puyos to your opponent. The game ends when an opponent's field becomes full and they can no longer drop Puyos.
Puyo Pop Fever has a two-player mode, where you compete against each other. Some versions allow for more players, including the Gamecube version, which allows up to eight players to compete in free-for-all or team modes.
Puyo Pop Fever was released on 2004-02-27 and is a puzzle game.

How to Play
Here follows an explanation of the basic rules of Puyo POP Fever and the game screen. Make sure you understand these before playing.
Basic Rules
What's a Puyo?
Puyo are the silent stars of the game. They come in red, blue, green, yellow and purple, and drop into the playfield in Sets of 2 to 4 Puyo.
•
Triple Sets: A Set of 3 Puyo of no more than 2 colours. Press the A or B button to rotate the Set as it drops.
•
Quadruple Sets: A Set of 4 Puyo of no more than 2 colours. When all are the same colour, press the A or B button to change the colour.
Removing Puyo
The goal of the game is to remove as many Puyo from the playfield as you can. To do this, control a Set as they fall from the top of the playfield using A and B buttons and pile them on top of other Puyo.
Whenever a Puyo touches another Puyo of the same colour, they stick together. Connect four or more Puyo to remove them from the playfield.
Viewing the Game Screen - Normal Mode
The Game Screen is set out as below. The playfield on the left is for 1P, while the playfield on the right is for the COM or 2P.
•
NEXT Puyo: Shows the next Set that will drop into the playfield.
•
XX Marker: Lose the game when Puyo pile up to here.
•
Puyo Preview: Nuisance Puyo your opponent has sent are displayed here before dropping.
Game Over
The first player to allow Puyo to pile up to the XX at the top centre of the playfield loses the game.
Nuisance Puyo
When you remove Puyo, you not only receive points, but also send Nuisance Puyo into your opponent's playfield.
When Nuisance Puyo Appear in Your Playfield
Nuisance Puyo cannot connect to colour or other Nuisance Puyo. However, when colour Puyo are removed, any Nuisance Puyo touching them horizontally or vertically disappear with them.
Simultaneous Elimination
The more Puyo you can connect and remove at the same time, the higher you score. You can also earn high scores by removing Puyo of two or more colours at the same time.
Chains
Whenever a group of Puyo is removed, any Puyo on top will drop down. When these Puyo then connect with and remove other Puyo, this is called a Chain.
Complicated Chains with greater numbers of steps earn higher points. Longer Chains cause lots of Nuisance Puyo to drop in your opponent's playfield.
All Clear
All Clear means that every last P
