In Puyo style, the game ends if a Puyo reaches the X mark. Successfully filling a complete horizontal line of blocks on the field will make it disappear, and additional points can be earned clearing multiple lines at once. The Tetris style, on the other hand, has players placing shaped blocks known as Tetrominos down on the playing field. By carefully arranging the Puyos, players can perform chain combos in which additional Puyos are matched and popped as they fall into place, earning more points as a result. The Puyos can be popped by matching four and more of the same color next to each other. In the Puyo Puyo style, colored blobs known as Puyos will fall from the top of the screen and can be rotated before being placed down. Puyo Puyo Tetris centers around the combination of two main gameplay styles, Puyo and Tetris. See also: Gameplay of Puyo Puyo and Tetris
