Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary is a puzzle game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega. The game honored the twentieth year of the Puyo Puyo series, and was first released for the Nintendo DS in July 2011, and later for Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and PlayStation Portable in December.

Gameplay[edit]

In total, the game has 20 modes of gameplay, including 8 new modes, and 5 hidden modes from Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary.^[3] Except in Mission and Pair Puyo modes, a player is eliminated when they top out, and the last player (or side) standing wins the round.

"Pair Puyo"[edit]

A two-on-two team play mode. The teammates share Nuisance Puyo and "lives" - when one of the teams' field tops out, the board is replaced with a new board with a pre-made chain and costs a life. When all lives are lost, the team is eliminated, and the last team standing wins the match.

The players get bonuses for "Extra Chains" (firing a chain during your teammate's chain) and "Synchro Chains" (firing chains of the same length (3 or longer) at the same time).

Shop[edit]

Like Puyo Puyo Fever 2 there is a shop, but instead of ineffective game play items the players can spend points they get from various modes for exchange of Puyo skins, alternate character voices, and alternate character costumes.

-===Standard Modes===
-Main game rules. These rules always appear starting with ''[[Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary]]''.
-* Original
-The original Puyo Puyo rule that does not have offsetting.
-* TSU
-The first widely adapted rule that allows offsetting Nuisance Puyo once.
-* Fever
-The main rule in the Fever series. Allows continuous offsetting that fills up one unit of the fever meter per offset. Filling up the meter completely will send the player to [[Puyo Puyo Fever|fever]] [[Puyo Puyo Fever 2|mode]].

-Players are given tasks to do. The first player (or side) that finishes all tasks wins the round.
-===Returning Modes===
-Game modes that return from older games.
-* SUN
-The main rule in ''[[Puyo Puyo Sun]]''. When a player offsets, Sun Puyo will drop on their playfields. Sun Puyo give more points that increases the amount of Nuisance Puyo sent.
-* Deka Puyo Rush

-===Gimmick Modes===
-Modes exclusive to ''20th Anniversary''. All of these modes allow quick drop.
-* Chibi Puyo Excavation
-An excavation mode similar to the Excavation Mode in ''15th Anniversary'' that uses mini Puyo.
-* Gust
-From time to time, a wind blows from one side that pushes all Puyo to one side.
-* Slot
-A required number of Puyo is shown. The player who reduces the required number to 0 obtains an item that boosts them and/or debuffs others.
-* 4 Next Puyo
-Shows 4 preview Puyo instead of two.
-* Block
-This mode has "Block Puyo", which act as platforms.
-* Active
-Puyo can still be dropped while chaining. This mode served as the inspiration for the PuyoTetMix mode in ''[[Puyo Puyo Tetris]]''.
-* Cross Spinner
-When a timer expires, the field spins 180 degrees. The two halves rotate separately.
-* Quartet
-All Puyo are made up of fours.
-===Hidden Modes===
-* Non-Stop Fever
-* Excavation
-* Giant Puyo
-* Ice Block
-* Spinner
 ==="Pair Puyo"===
 A two-on-two team play mode. The teammates share Nuisance Puyo and "lives" - when one of the teams' field tops out, the board is replaced with a new board with a pre-made chain and costs a life. When all lives are lost, the team is eliminated, and the last team standing wins the match.

-==Soundtracks==
-The game also has two soundtracks. The first one is called ''Puyo Puyo!! Anniversary Sound Collection'', which is a bonus soundtrack that is exclusive for the Wii, 3DS and PSP versions of the game. It has 27 songs from the series' 20-year history. The other is the official soundtrack by [[Wave Master]] entitled ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary Original Soundtrack'', which debuted on February 4, 2012 in Japan. The soundtrack has 59 songs from the game that is composed by Hideki Abe.
-==Minor changes==
-* The game uses simple shading, contrast to the art style used in the Fever series.
-* The light beam that travels when sending Nuisance Puyo is now thinner.
-** The beam color depends on the color of puyo cleared.
-** Also, the ring that appears when the beam hits the nuisance tray is also thinner.
-* The character's board changes to their "ouch" picture if their screen gets flooded, or if they have a large amount of Nuisance pending.
-* The background is now locked to the game mode.
-** Say, if the Fever rule is selected, the background will be Primp Town School. In active mode, it will be the school in nighttime, etc.
-* In Fever mode, the game board doesn't "squish" during chains anymore
