It looks, sounds, and plays nearly identically to Capcom's masterclass puzzler Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo. But since this isn't Capcom, it has none of the Capcom characters charm or presentation. Some of the matches feel over difficult. But the fact that we can have something like on the Switch is a major cause for celebration. As with Puzzle Fighter, multiplayer is where the game shines the most.

I was so excited to hear the announcement for this game because it reminds me of the classic puzzle fighter for PlayStation. It’s very similar but way more modern. What I didn’t like was the loading times, it’s not too bad but I wish it was a little faster. For the price it’s selling right now I say it’s 100% worth buying!

If you are fan of, or enjoy puzzle games that are similar to Tetris, then, Crystal Crisis is one you may want to consider. Crystal Crisis offers intricacies and challenges that can be frustrating, yet, satisfying to forge through. For example, if your opponent manages to secure a combo, then, you'll end up with timed blocks. Timed, meaning, these blocks fall on your side of the screen and cannot be used until the number inside of them dissipates. So, a block with 5 in it, has 5 turns to go before it is rendered usable. That aside, a lot of detail and thought went into this game. Many of the characters available pay homage to a specific game. E.g. Isaac from the Binding of Isaac game is available to play. It's kinda cool to use a character you played in another game. Each character also has a unique set of moves and combos to offer too. Which means, if you want to master Crystal Crisis, you'll need to explore the various characters and moves. Overall, this is a good puzzle game. Be forewarned though, it can go from a casual "fun" game to "stressed out and frantic" game in the blink of an eye.

This is a very fun puzzle fighting game, similar to the old Super Puzzle Fighter Turbo games. Better graphics and sound but similar gameplay. A nice change from my usual game genre choices.

If you enjoy Puzzle Fighter then you'll enjoy this game because it plays exactly like it! This game has a good variety of modes you can play. A bunch of characters to unlock and unique abilities for each characters. Addictively fun!
