'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''', known as '''''Super Puzzle Fighter II X''''' (スーパーパズルファイターⅡX) in Japan, is a puzzle game developed and published by [[Capcom]]. It was brought to the [[Sega Saturn]] in 1996.
 +
 
 +
Despite its name, there were never any prior ''Puzzle Fighter'' games. The name is a play on Capcom's earlier game, ''[[Super Street Fighter II Turbo]]''.
  
 
==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
Similar to other "falling piece" puzzle games, the aim of ''Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo'' is to eliminate your opponent by filling their playfield with blocks (or gems, in this case). In order to achieve this, you must eliminate coloured gems on your side of the play area and produce combos when doing so.
+
{{ScreenThumb|Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, Character Select.png|width=200|Character select}}

 +
The game is a falling piece puzzle game, similar to ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'', ''[[Baku Baku Animal]]'', or the prior [[Capcom]] arcade game ''[[Pnickies]]''. The player controls pairs of gems as they drop into a well-like playfield (measuring twelve blocks tall by six blocks wide, with the fourth column from the left being thirteen blocks high). The game continues until one player's field reaches the top of its fourth column (which is where all new gems first appear). That player is the loser.
 +
 
 +
Gems can only be eliminated by coming into contact with a Crash Gem of the same color, which eliminates all adjacent gems of that color, setting up the potential for huge chain reactions. When gems are eliminated, "garbage blocks" called Counter Gems drop into the opponent's playfield. Counter Gems have a visible countdown usually starting at 5 that is reduced by one each time a new pair of gems is dropped in that well. They become normal gems when the countdown reaches zero. The only way to eliminate Counter Gems before they become normal gems is to place a Crash Gem of that color nearby so that it eliminates at least one normal gem. If this is done, all Counter Gems immediately adjacent to the Crash Gem are taken out as well. When gems are eliminated, surrounding gems fall under the effect of gravity.
 +
 
 +
Gems of the same color form squares or rectangles (of at least two blocks tall and wide) in the well when placed adjacent to each other, called Power Gems. Eliminating Power Gems as part of a combo increases the number of Counter Gems that would otherwise appear in the opponent's well. The only other type of piece to appear is the diamond-shaped Rainbow Gem, which eliminates all gems (normal, Power, Counter, and Crash alike) of whichever color gem it lands on. The Rainbow Gem appears every 25 pieces.
 +
 
 +
A warning indicator appears at the top of the screen for the player that is about to receive Counter Gems after placing the next piece, depending on the number of Counter Gems that are about to drop: "Caution" means 1-10 gems, "Warning" means 11-30 gems, and "Danger" means 31 or more gems. When this indicator is shown, the player is in defense mode, meaning that every two Counter Gems that the player sends to the opponent are used to negate a single Counter Gem that is being sent by the opponent. Any additional Counter Gems in excess of this are sent to the opponent in a one-to-one ratio, as usual.
 +
 
 +
During the game, super deformed versions of various characters from Capcom's two main fighting game series (''[[:Category:Street Fighter|Street Fighter]]'' and ''[[:Category:Darkstalkers|Darkstalkers]]'') act out a battle based on how the game is going. Every time a player sends Counter Gems to their opponent, their character performs a fighting game action: a taunt for 1-11 gems, a special move for 18-23 gems, and a Super Combo for 30 or more gems. These animations, however, are purely cosmetic and have no bearing on the gameplay other than to indicate the magnitude of the counters. Counter Gems fall on opponents in a predetermined pattern depending on the character that sent them.
 +
 
 +
Pieces are moved with {{left}} and {{right}}. They are rotated clockwise with {{B}} and counterclockwise with {{A}}. If pieces do not have enough room to rotate, the positions of the gems can still be swapped. Pieces can be dropped more quickly with {{down}}. The character can taunt once per round with {{C}} in the Saturn version or {{L}} in the Dreamcast version.
 +
 
 +
===Modes===
 +
Both the Saturn and the Dreamcast versions of the game have an Arcade Mode and a Versus Mode. The Arcade Mode is a single-player mode where the player chooses any character and plays against computer-controlled opponents of increasing difficulty. On Easy difficulty, the player only faces three opponents; on Normal or Hard difficulty, the player faces eight opponents, ending with a fight against the final boss Akuma. The Versus Mode is a two-player mode where each player chooses a character and a power level (from 1 to 5) and compete against each other. By default, matches are a single round in the Arcade Mode and the best of three rounds in the Versus Mode (but either mode can be changed to 1, 3, or 5 rounds in the options).
 +
 
 +
The Saturn version additionally has a Street Puzzle Mode. This is a single-player mode where the player can compete in matches to win prizes. After selecting a character, the player chooses one of six prizes to play for. Prizes are defended by different characters, in increasing difficulty, and can be attempted in any order. Prizes include alternative colors for each character, music and sound effects for the sound test, codes for secret characters, and the Master Arcade Mode (which is the same as the Arcade Mode except the player can no longer negate Counter Gems). After winning a prize, a Goodies item appears on the main menu. The game saves all earned prizes to the Saturn's internal memory. Most of these prizes are unlocked by default in the Dreamcast version.
 +
 
 +
The Dreamcast version has a Training Mode where the player can practice playing against a passive opponent and a Network Mode that allowed for online multiplayer matches over Capcom's [[Matching Service]] network. The Dreamcast version also has three separate gameplay styles, which can be selected in any game mode: X-Mode, Y-Mode, and Z-Mode. X-mode is the original version of the game, but Y-Mode and Z-Mode make drastic gameplay changes. Y-Mode makes the gems break as soon as three or more are aligned in a row, column, or diagonally, like in ''[[Columns]]''. Z-mode makes lines of gems rise up from the bottom of the screen; the player controls a 2x2 square cursor, with which they rotate already-placed pieces, similar to ''Tetris Attack''.
 +
 
 +
===Characters===
 +
Characters are mostly taken from the ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]]'' and the ''[[:Category:Darkstalkers|Darkstalkers]]'' games, with most ''Street Fighter II'' characters missing. Though characters from both series appear in the game, they are not controllable by the player, acting solely as avatars.

==History==
 
==History==
Despite its name there was never a "''Super Puzzle Fighter 1''" - it is merely just a play on Capcom's earlier game, ''[[Super Street Fighter II Turbo]]''. This being said, the game is actually influenced by ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]]'' and the ''Darkstalkers'' franchise, with most ''Street Fighter II'' characters missing. Though characters from both series appear in the game they are not controllable by the player, acting solely as avatars.
+
===Legacy===
 +
A fighting game spin-off, called ''[[Pocket Fighter]]'', was released in 1997 and ported to the Saturn and the [[PlayStation]] the following year.
 +
 
 +
A high-definition remake called ''Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix'' was released for the [[Xbox 360]] and [[PlayStation 3]] in 2007. It was made backwards compatible on the [[Xbox One]] in 2019.
 +
 
 +
A successor, ''Puzzle Fighter'', was released for mobile devices in 2017.
 +
 
 +
''Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo'' was included as a part of the ''Capcom Fighting Collection'' compilation on the [[PlayStation 4]], [[Xbox One]], [[Nintendo Switch]], and [[PC]] in 2022.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, known as Super Puzzle Fighter II X (スーパーパズルファイターⅡX) in Japan, is a puzzle game developed and published by Capcom. It was brought to the Sega Saturn in 1996.

Despite its name, there were never any prior Puzzle Fighter games. The name is a play on Capcom's earlier game, Super Street Fighter II Turbo.

Gameplay

The game is a falling piece puzzle game, similar to Puyo Puyo, Baku Baku Animal, or the prior Capcom arcade game Pnickies. The player controls pairs of gems as they drop into a well-like playfield (measuring twelve blocks tall by six blocks wide, with the fourth column from the left being thirteen blocks high). The game continues until one player's field reaches the top of its fourth column (which is where all new gems first appear). That player is the loser.

Gems can only be eliminated by coming into contact with a Crash Gem of the same color, which eliminates all adjacent gems of that color, setting up the potential for huge chain reactions. When gems are eliminated, "garbage blocks" called Counter Gems drop into the opponent's playfield. Counter Gems have a visible countdown usually starting at 5 that is reduced by one each time a new pair of gems is dropped in that well. They become normal gems when the countdown reaches zero. The only way to eliminate Counter Gems before they become normal gems is to place a Crash Gem of that color nearby so that it eliminates at least one normal gem. If this is done, all Counter Gems immediately adjacent to the Crash Gem are taken out as well. When gems are eliminated, surrounding gems fall under the effect of gravity.

Gems of the same color form squares or rectangles (of at least two blocks tall and wide) in the well when placed adjacent to each other, called Power Gems. Eliminating Power Gems as part of a combo increases the number of Counter Gems that would otherwise appear in the opponent's well. The only other type of piece to appear is the diamond-shaped Rainbow Gem, which eliminates all gems (normal, Power, Counter, and Crash alike) of whichever color gem it lands on. The Rainbow Gem appears every 25 pieces.

A warning indicator appears at the top of the screen for the player that is about to receive Counter Gems after placing the next piece, depending on the number of Counter Gems that are about to drop: "Caution" means 1-10 gems, "Warning" means 11-30 gems, and "Danger" means 31 or more gems. When this indicator is shown, the player is in defense mode, meaning that every two Counter Gems that the player sends to the opponent are used to negate a single Counter Gem that is being sent by the opponent. Any additional Counter Gems in excess of this are sent to the opponent in a one-to-one ratio, as usual.

During the game, super deformed versions of various characters from Capcom's two main fighting game series (Street Fighter and Darkstalkers) act out a battle based on how the game is going. Every time a player sends Counter Gems to their opponent, their character performs a fighting game action: a taunt for 1-11 gems, a special move for 18-23 gems, and a Super Combo for 30 or more gems. These animations, however, are purely cosmetic and have no bearing on the gameplay other than to indicate the magnitude of the counters. Counter Gems fall on opponents in a predetermined pattern depending on the character that sent them.

Pieces are moved with Left and Right. They are rotated clockwise with B and counterclockwise with A. If pieces do not have enough room to rotate, the positions of the gems can still be swapped. Pieces can be dropped more quickly with Down. The character can taunt once per round with C in the Saturn version or L in the Dreamcast version.

Modes

Both the Saturn and the Dreamcast versions of the game have an Arcade Mode and a Versus Mode. The Arcade Mode is a single-player mode where the player chooses any character and plays against computer-controlled opponents of increasing difficulty. On Easy difficulty, the player only faces three opponents; on Normal or Hard difficulty, the player faces eight opponents, ending with a fight against the final boss Akuma. The Versus Mode is a two-player mode where each player chooses a character and a power level (from 1 to 5) and compete against each other. By default, matches are a single round in the Arcade Mode and the best of three rounds in the Versus Mode (but either mode can be changed to 1, 3, or 5 rounds in the options).

The Saturn version additionally has a Street Puzzle Mode. This is a single-player mode where the player can compete in matches to win prizes. After selecting a character, the player chooses one of six prizes to play for. Prizes are defended by different characters, in increasing difficulty, and can be attempted in any order. Prizes include alternative colors for each character, music and sound effects for the sound test, codes for secret characters, and the Master Arcade Mode (which is the same as the Arcade Mode except the player can no longer negate Counter Gems). After winning a prize, a Goodies item appears on the main menu. The game saves all earned prizes to the Saturn's internal memory. Most of these prizes are unlocked by default in the Dreamcast version.

The Dreamcast version has a Training Mode where the player can practice playing against a passive opponent and a Network Mode that allowed for online multiplayer matches over Capcom's Matching Service network. The Dreamcast version also has three separate gameplay styles, which can be selected in any game mode: X-Mode, Y-Mode, and Z-Mode. X-mode is the original version of the game, but Y-Mode and Z-Mode make drastic gameplay changes. Y-Mode makes the gems break as soon as three or more are aligned in a row, column, or diagonally, like in Columns. Z-mode makes lines of gems rise up from the bottom of the screen; the player controls a 2x2 square cursor, with which they rotate already-placed pieces, similar to Tetris Attack.

Characters

Characters are mostly taken from the Street Fighter Alpha and the Darkstalkers games, with most Street Fighter II characters missing. Though characters from both series appear in the game, they are not controllable by the player, acting solely as avatars.
