Pros and cons of Piyo Blocks 2 app for iPhone and iPad

Piyo Blocks 2 app good for

Perfect if you have some time to kill, or if you want to challenge some friends.
This game was worth the money I spent, and would have spent more on it
Im a huge fan of Match-3 style games, but there are none better than Piyo Blocks 2. The game is highly polished both graphically and in sound design. There are 4 unique modes to play, online leaderboard through Openfeint, achievements, and an interactive main menu. This is the one game I cant seem to put down! Get it now and you wont regret it!
Yeah, its a match three game. Its an extremely Japanese match three game. To many, these are an instant turn off. However, this is one of the most varied and polished match threes Ive played on the iPod. Excellent high score and challenge support through openfeint, plenty of game modes, and a polished and attractive (though extremely Japanese) interface. Pick this up if match threes appeal to you at all and cutesy Japanese pop culture doesnt make you want to vomit.
I dont understand the "put piyo to sleep or assassinate piyo" achievements:( someone can help me plz? Very fun game btw
I personally love this game. Its better than Bejeweled, has many play modes, and is a great puzzle game. The automatic save when you exit the game is probably the best feature there is! I got it for free on Open Faint but had I known it was this good, I would have bought it ages ago! If you like Bejeweled, youll LOVE this!

Some bad moments

Its a classic match-3, it doesnt add anything new to the genre. Id give it a better rating if not for the terribly slow pacing of the game, which can get on your nerves after a while.
This is a fun game. Simple and straightforward. Unless you want to play against someone. When playing someone sharing a wifi signal, it takes forever to find the other device and then several attempts to actually connect And then about 50% of all of those games crash. Fix those issues and I would adjust my rating to 4 or 5.
Honestly, this is just another reskinned clone of any bejeweled game. Why bother? Two stars for technical effort, none for originality.
Advertising and in the middle of my game? Guys, I paid for this game. Fix that please or Ill have to contact Apple.
#1 problem, sound effects frequently dont play. #2 is there there is no feedback on how your score compares to your previous score, so theres no sense of accomplishment for getting a high score. #3 you cannot move tiles that are falling, making it unnecessarily difficult to make the combos that are at the heart of mastering the game.
Sound effects dont work on iOS 8 and with 8.4, the custom music option is broken. Its a fun Match 3 game with a nice design, just wait until a fix is released before purchasing.
