But that's not to say that this is a bad game. It's the first American Puzzle League with out a license slapped on to help it sell. First there was Tetris Attack, then Pokémon Puzzle League, which the PL has nothing to do with. The planet part just means that you can play with with anyone in the world. Unfortunately, since you can't communicate with them in any other way, it still feels like you're playing against the computer. However, it is much more difficult than the computer, which is one of my main concerns. PPL doesn't even try to be hard. It's always so boringly easy, and the three difficulty settings all seemed exactly the same. It trys to be fast but it takes 30-40 minutes until it finally starts to ramp up. One of the most unforgivable is its lack of unlockables. Once you turn the game one, what you see is what you get. You could play this game for years and not get anything new. There's nothing to unlock, no bonus skins, music, difficulty levels, there's not even a story. But what's there is fun, and should keep you coming back now and again forever. Just know what you're getting into.
