Puyo Puyo~n, also known as Puyo Puyo 4, is a "well"-type puzzle game a la Tetris and Columns. Created by Sega and Compile, it was never officially released outside of Japan. In Japan, it was released for Dreamcast, Playstation, Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color. The Nintendo 64 version, titled Puyo Puyo ~n Party, was more focused on multiplayer.

The player starts with an empty screen into which the puyos fall. Group four of the same colour into horizontal or vertical lines and they disappear. Popping more than four at any one time or executing a combo (where popping one group of puyos rearranges those remaining in the well into such a pattern that they automatically fall into a grouping and also disappear as a result) sends clear puyos over to the opponent's well, possibly spoiling their groupings.
