  Save Tetris and Puyo Pop for when you want to wind down before bedtime. Crystal Crisis is as intense as puzzle gaming gets and has sparked new life into a genre not known for surprises. From the heart-pumping puzzle action to the full-fledged story mode and a roster that screams “fan service,” it would be a crime to call Crystal Crisis anything less than an absolute diamond.

  Even that is hampered by pace-killing Attack and Defense Burst system though, so definitely don’t look to Crystal Crisis if you want a fast-paced puzzle game. The Nintendo Switch is a platform filled great puzzle games–Tetris 99 and Puyo Puyo Champions have come out this year alone–so Crystal Crisis ends up as a middling addition that mainly gets by on the inclusion of beloved characters, even if it doesn’t do much with them.
