I must say that I am used to Puzzle Quest with Knights, Ghouls, thieves and monsters... So this took awhile to get used to. The way that new pieces slide in when others are cleared shocked me a bit. It forced me to be more strategic when it came down to it. Which is good. It causes the gamer to think. Which is something I don't think games do anymore. That's why I prefer the RPG's, puzzle games and such. For those of you who are expecting this game to be exactly the same, don't. Anticipate a surprise. If you don't like surprises and changes, you don't want to play this game if you like the old Puzzle Quest as is.
Game gets progressively more challenging as you level. It gives you missions to solve while fighting pirates and mining at various locations. You have to solve matching puzzles by matching gems to unlock leapgates that let you move around the galaxy. As you level up and earn more money you can buy ships that have a higher capacity and stronger shields and weapons.
It's definitely a unique take on RPGs, and definitely lacks a lot of the depth of a traditional RPG. But even so, if you like puzzles similar to Bejeweled, you'll like this. It's surprising how many variations they have on that game to defeat the various challenges in the game. It has a light story line, but it's interesting enough to keep you going.
Its a good game, bought it for my son to play, then had to get one for me too. Good way to pass time, makes you think
If you like puzzle games, you will love this one. Challenges get tougher the more you play. Highly recommended!
