I love Puyopuyo! But if you are over 16 years old, we have good news for you! At each venue of the "Gigo Cup", there will be a "Challenge Event" that anyone can participate in at the same time!
There will be many events such as "Score Attack," "Chain Challenge," and "Group Challenge," in which families and groups of players will work together to fight against the CPU. In addition, you can get official goods such as PuyoPuyo coin cases and PuyoPuyo stickers depending on your score in each challenge.
