I get to Satan with 180,000 points fairly consistently now with no continues (SNES version). But I've only gotten Masked Satan to show up once or twice. Videos online seem to get him with 180k points, so I don't know what I'm missing.

Is it random even after hitting the point threshold? Do you need to already beat the game once normally or something? There must be some other requirements that aren't listed online.

I can't even finish the beginner mode in this game

Puyo is hard at first, but once you learn to recognize some basic patterns and set them up you quickly it becomes much easier.

This site is useful, Parts 1 and 2 are all you need to practice to do well against the CPU in most Puyo games.

Encountering Masked Satan is based on EXP, not score. Normally, when you don't use continues your score and EXP are the same since each point earned is one EXP gained. However, if your total EXP at the end of a round exceeds the EXP requirement for the next floor, the amount of EXP you earn is capped to prevent you from skipping a floor. This is the cause of the "REST 1" thing you sometimes see like in picrel. Your EXP capping like this has the side effect of making your EXP less than your score, so you can reach the final round with 180,000 points but not 180,000 EXP. To prevent this, you need to focus on getting more points per round instead of cramming scoring in the early game. If you get a 15 chain in round 1 and score 100,000 points, only 59,999 of those points are going to count as EXP.

That's it! Thanks anon, I knew EXP was different from score but never really got how it worked. I got a ton of points on Round 1 this run so makes perfect sense.

If you can manage to win against every opponent in the first tier of the tower while keeping your score/exp low enough to not be able to advance to the next tier, you can fight him early and get an unique ending. Mind you, you need to be a master at playing as slow and shittily as possible while still getting on top.

You don't get a unique ending for defeating floor 1 Masked Satan. If after defeating him you meet the EXP requirement, you move on like normal. If you don't meet it, you get the regular "bad ending" you get by not meeting a floor's EXP requirement.

Ah yeah, you're right
Been a while since I last played

Nice, thanks for this

>(SNES version)
It annoys me that the original SNES release didn't have the ending A music. The other tracks just don't have the punch.
