REVIEW

I am a huge fan of RPG games and I have really gotten into puzzle games lately. So this seemed like a natural fit for my gaming style. And I was quiet correct.

The game itself as a story line is pretty shallow but the gameplay makes up for it. Taking a basic bejeweled game and making it mix with RPG style gives the puzzle game new life.

You basically battle against your opponent to make lines on a bejeweled board. When you create the lines it gives you different things depending on what you matched up. Different colored jewels will give you mana to perform spells with while other jewels will give you money or experience.

While this is going on you are battling against a monster who is also playing the same board with you. You have to be careful on what jewels you line up and where others will fall as to try and not give the monster an easy attack on you. As most monsters after a few hours have much more life than you this becomes increasingly difficult.

Once you get the whole battle method down though it becomes easier to see where the monster will go with thier moves. You will also get the hang of what type of mana you need to perform what spells.

Any one who is into RPG's and enjoy's puzzle games like bejeweled should pick this game up. Very fun and addicting!

8.5/10

Oh man, when this came out my brother, roommate and I searched everywhere for it. We eventually found them hidden in an unusual aisle at Best Buy, we proceeded to play the game almost nonstop over the next month and a half, I complely ignored all other games and systems while I was playing this thing.
My only complaint on it was the horrible horrible music.
