Game Review- Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords

Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords for the Nintendo DS

In this game you get to chose between four types of hero’s; Druid, Knight, Warrior or Wizard. You then go on quest in a world of mythical and magical creatures and people. But, unlike many games with an intro like that it isn’t all speed or fighting abilities that lets you win the game, it’s strategy. Each fight is played out on a game board much like the game “Bejeweled” and depending on who you are and your level the pieces you collect can be used for spells that might hurt your opponent or help you. This game is addictive even for someone not that good with puzzles as it also lets you try to defeat most opponents many times it you fail at first. It has a main story that you need to follow; however, there are lots of side quests that add to the story and your levels. Also you can just play puzzles against your choose of opponents or play with a friend who also has the game on the DS version. This game is also on or will soon be on the Nintendo Wii, PlayStation 2 and PSP and all are reasonable well priced as it is not a game of great graphics, but it’s not a case where it distracts from the game because of it.
