It's from STEVE FUCKING FAWKNER who gave us the Warlords games.
It has some pretty top-notch Japanese art direction.
It has an awesome orchestral soundtrack like the Warlords games.
It is set in the Warlords universe.
It marries the Warlords strategy games with Bejeweled and a few elements of card battling.
It has heroes to level up and customize.
THERE WILL NEVER BE A BETTER GAME MADE EVER. EVER.
The demo is at Game Crazy. I have been playing the demo compulsively for a half-hour. I will update with details on the mechanics when I feel like pulling myself away from it. It is beyond madly addictive, despite the demo's level cap.
STEVE FUCKING FAWKNER!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!

post pics and shit buddy

Yeah I saw this, this is the puzzle game with RPG elements right? I'm interested in it. Gonna give it the ol' ISO heave-ho.

Is it easy to understand? That one screen of the puzzle and all the stats and numbers and such seems overwhelming.
-
When can you buy it
-
Oh, this is also coming out for the DS
-
Tom Chick, journo and gaming connoisseur, adores it as well. There are DS and XBLA versions also in the works. OMG.
-
lol, DS
GameSpot says March 20
wait, XBLA? shit, that's the version i will be buying
-
March 20th for PSP. It's the lead platform.
-
I don't pay more than $19.99 for puzzle games. Sorry, Warlords, you'll wait 'till I get XBLA.
-
You could have got it if you hacked your PSP
-
It's not just a puzzle game, bitch. It's a strategy RPG first, with items and levelling and skills and shit. Combat is decided in puzzle battles. Matching colors generates mana for attacks, and you wanna block enemies from matching colors so they don't attack. It's ridiculously deep and addictive. Also you are gay and if you do not buy this game I will kill you.
-
I'm buying the XBLA version, you said it so it must be true
If you're wrong and there is no XBLA version, I'll be sure to tell them I didn't buy the game because of you

demi, read this thread: http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?t=33084&highlight=%22puzzle+quest%22

I want to get back to this game, fuck all y'all
-
I see no mention of an official announcement, he is just cockteasing.
Do you think I could get a review copy? Who is the publisher? I will ask for one.
-
Hell yeah, we are getting 10 giveaway copies for a... giveaway. I'll post the link here so you guys can get a free copy.
And I get to review the DS version!
Pretty sweet deal.
-
Free copies woo! Viral marketing ftw!
-
sounds like Puzzle Pirates.
-
Alright alright, I'm going to Gamecrazy...
-
btw this is exactly the type of game I tend to go loony over - good looking out, Doug!
-
The only issue I have is that looking between the PSP and DS, the game looks identical. The DS makes up for the lack of screen real estate by moving the side player profiles to the top screen during puzzles.
So I'm wondering if it's easier to use the touch screen than the PSP controls.
-
PSP has better music; DS has less loads (although the PSP version hides them well)
-
The controls, man - by God, what about the controls?
-
controls fine on the psp, and i generally don't like using the stylus
-
Because you hate good controls out of spite for Nintendo?
-
no, i find the stylus cumbersome and less efficient for games like this
-
In a puzzle game!?
-
yup. i prefer to make a few fast taps on a dpad over wibbling with my hand over the screen.
-
You just hate Nintendo, you hater!
-
I hate the game and the way it's totally racist towards colorblind people like myself.
But I hate the PSP version least of all. DS lol.
In any case, I enjoyed Illustlogic DS like 10x more once I stopped trying to nibble the stylus around the tiny tiny 2x2 pixel square and just started drawing lines with the MAN'S D-PAD.
-
yup. i prefer to make a few fast taps on a dpad over wibbling with my hand over the screen.
I sure hope there's no diagonal movement on the PSP d-pad. Lord knows how good it does those
-
I found a torrent, someone ripped the demo
-
This looks like it might be fun, I'll consider getting it for my DS
-
I can tell the DS baubles apart much more easily than the PSP ones. The DS ones are flat-shaded and lower-res with no alpha or shading...making them much easier to distinguish to my colorblind eye.
I don't want to buy the last-gen DS version. :'(
-
WOW this game is awesome. Holy fuck. I am close to just buying the PSP version to support the guy.
-
tell your friend tvc that this game rules him

Pre-Ordered MY copy! woo!
-
Is Puzzle Quest the new chic portable EB pick like Mega Man ZX and Clubhouse Games?
-
"long signature club, woo" replaces "ZX"?
-
I guess so!
