About
Puyo Puyo refers to a series of puzzle video games created by Compile and later Sonic Team. Puyo Puyo 4 - Car-Kun to Issho is the fourth game in the series. Puyo Puyo, originally released by Compile in 1991, featured characters from the 1989 RPG Madou Monogatari, also made by Compile. Puyos were enemy monsters in said game, as the rough equivalent of the slime monsters from the Dragon Quest game series. The series was the second and more successful attempt to combat the ubiquetous falling-block game Tetris, the first being Columns. Puyo Puyo really became popular when it was released as an arcade game in 1992. This was the first version that included the aforementioned one-player story mode, in which the human player plays against computer opponents of increasing difficulty. This feature was an immediate success because it allowed players to play by themselves. Future versions of Puyo Puyo for console systems also included this feature.
