PuzzMiX

Let's be clear: PuzzMiX is a clone of Suika Game. It is essentially the same game, but with objects from the Gunvolt series replacing the smiling fruits. (If you don't know what Suika Game is, please check out the NintendoLife review, but basically it's a falling-object puzzle game in which you must match fruits to create increasingly large fruits, for points.)

What makes PuzzMiX a welcome alternative to Suika Game is its stellar soundtrack. Rather than the same jaunty tune playing on infinite repeat, as is the case in Suika Game, PuzzMix lets you play along to some of the best music tracks from Gunvolt, many composed by the legendary Ippo Yamada. The more you play, the more tracks you can unlock.

PuzzMix also features English voice acting from the superb Obake PAM, whom you can find on YouTube if you enjoy highly entertaining live streams focused on Gacha games and visual novels. (She's great!)

For about the same low price as the excellent Suika Game, you get an unapologetic facsimile with excellent music. What's not to like?
