Game Focus writes: "Puzzle Quest: Galactrix is the second game in the Puzzle Quest series of games (The first game was Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords), but this is not a sequel per se but an almost complete re-envisioning of the classic Puzzle Quest game but now based in a science fiction universe and set in space. This new setting is topped off with some new and improved graphics and a wide open galaxy to explore, mine asteroids and do battles against many different factions."
Pros
+Nice new puzzle board to play
+Sci-fi space based RPG story is very well done (cliché though)
+Easy to pick up and master
+Multiple characters to assist you in the game
+Build new items, repair ships, mine asteroids, tons of quests, lots to do
Cons
-Dumbed down from Puzzle Quest – Warlords and that is a shame
-Too easy at times and way too difficult at other times
-Not as fun as PQ-Challenge of the Warlords
