[a] (commonly referred to as simply Pitter Patter or abbreviated as PPP) was a tile-matching video game developed and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment for iOS and Android, and was released on October 10, 2018, in Japan.

The main game consisted of the player creating teams of two 'units' to fight against an assortment of characters with the goal of draining the opponent's HP bar before a timer ran out.

Pitter Patter Pop was a single-player 2D tile-matching video game based on the anime adaptation of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga series, encompassing the first five parts of the series' story: Phantom Blood, Battle Tendency, Stardust Crusaders, Diamond Is Unbreakable, and Golden Wind[5] as well as the OVA adaptation of the spin-off manga Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan.

Skills could be activated during Stand Up Time allowing the player to strategize to increase their chances of creating larger squares.

After winning a standard match, the player would be awarded coins based on their performance, experience points and diamonds for their first clear of a stage.

The player would then progress through to the next stage and this would repeat until the final 'Boss Stage' where the player would face off against a more powerful and usually thematic character who would provide much more coins and diamonds than usual upon their defeat as well as another reward such as other forms of currency such as furniture tickets or thematic furniture.

This would continue until the timer ran out after which the players final score would be added to a global leaderboard.

Each month a new Score Attack would appear with the top placers on the previous leaderboard being greatly rewarded with coins, diamonds and chests.

As the player went through each tower they would earn challenge points, which could be used to unlock special stickers.

The types are mostly dictated by the kind of units present on the banner, if it distributes rewards on tenfolds and how it functions.

Through gameplay or from daily rewards the player could earn 'Gacha Tickets' which could be used to freely pull on any Gacha.

The second main aspect of gameplay was the 'JoJo Mansion', a building with eight rooms capable of holding up to two units each.

On occasion, units could 'visit' another room, this would earn the player a small number of experience points.

Characters could have more than one unit, generally a voiced and non-voiced version or to show appearances throughout different parts.

Chests came in five different types, Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum, each one of increasing rarity and better prizes.

Chests could be earned in a number of different ways such as completing certain conditions in battles, performing well in Score Attack or daily rewards.
