Looking for a competitive puzzle game

[HidSquid]

The only one I know of is Puyo Puyo Tetris. Is there anything else out there that people are playing?

Thanks!

I'm not into competitive stuff but doubt there are too many that are actually played by enough people, which is kinda sad.

we have a multiplayer puzzle games list on the curator, not sure if any of them would fit, plus there are games with online leaderboards that can get competitive, these 3 come into mind but I'm sure there are more:

You're even getting crowns (fluff, but might be your thing) for having the highest score/best time/fewst moves or something in levels. (I think not every mode has them yet, but there are quite a number of play modes. Dev is actively adding stuff.)

Has leaderboards, you can look at global and friends only.


Does good old battleship mechanic with extras count?

No idea how easily you could find a stranger to play against, but you can just play against friends.


Those are just those that come to mind pretty quickly. Are any of those what you're looking for? More details will help with finding what exactly you want from a competitive game. :)

Thanks for the suggestions.

I'm looking for something fast paced with real time interaction between players. Ideally with ranked matchmaking but I realize this is a niche genre so that may not be possible.

If you think of something like Super Puzzle Fighters. Something like that but modernized.

how about tumblestone?

and pyromind is definitely worth a shot, though it doesn't fit all your criteria:

this one has competitive online play, though probably not many players, as is the case with most games that aren't the flavor of the month:

Crystal Crisis appears to be exactly that.
