Puzzle Quest: Galactrix Hits Steam, Other Outlets

Is the PC demo different from playpuzzlequestgalactrix.com?

Got it last night and played it for an hr or 2.

Gameplay is just like the first one but for the sliding of tiles depending on which way you join them up. It very much is a "luck race" type game. What I mean by that is that if you manage to obliterate your enemies shields and are about to give the coup de gras and all of a sudden you see "NOVA MEGA NOVA NEW TURN!" and your shields were just decimated and you are at half health.

Literally it is the random luck of the tiles and where they land that gets you the win or not. I went from full health and shields to nearly half health in one round, why? Random luck.

Another annoyance is the stupid hacking system. As you try to hack the jumpgate you get one or 2 tiles and they ALL start moving. The time doesn't stop when this happens it keeps on going, even if you had the next 3 tiles ready to go the timer still goes and you have to wait for the stupid system to stop clearing tiles until your move. Which, by the way, destroys the move you wanted to do. It's aggravating as hell.


All in all I'm enjoying this one too, it's fun, casual, and will suck up allot of my time :)

w00t, bought!

steam is installing it now.

I had a shitload of fun with the first one after buying it just recently in january...

This is actually my 66th steam "game"...

this needs to be $15 so let the internet whining begin

I attended a evening discussion with Steve Fawkner, creator of Puzzle Quest, last night in Melbourne. He was at time brutally honest about game development and how they could do better as a studio.

Jason Hill from The Age (A local newspaper) did a good write up of it.

needs more iphone version.

I hate the fact that I can download it on steam today yet I have to still wait for the DS version to be released.

I had forgotten about this. I'll get it for my psp.

I'm scared of the violent references, they might jump out and punch me...
