Capcom has been releasing nothing but bangers recently but let’s not forget some of the classics.
Puzzle fighter is an off-shoot series that I got into simply because of my love for fighting games. Underneath is something addictive
Puzzle Fighter is a lesson in controlled chaos. One second, you're meticulously building a massive, glowing 2x4 Red Power Gem. You’re a genius. You’re an architect. Then the oops drops a single blue crash gem, triggers a 4-hit chain, and suddenly your screen is buried under 30 timer gems.
The music speeds up in crisis and the little chibi Ryu starts sweating, and you have to decide. Was great for some clutch moments.
