GH: "There is no shortage of Bejeweled style clones available for all the consoles but when Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords arrived in 2007 it took the casual puzzle genre and combined it with role playing elements. The end product was an addictive game which appealed to thousands of gamers across the globe. Finally the successor Galactrix has arrived which features an all new cast and is almost identical to the PC version which was released in February."
Hardcore Gamer: The Puzzle Quest games have been big hits in the digital era and have breathed new life into puzzle games by applying some RPG gameplay mechanics to the genre. Now, instead of spending $10 for the Galactrix and Challenge of the Warlords entries, you can get them both for only $1 each.
