]]> 28 Jun 2007 12:12:07 Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords is a brand new, genre-bending title that ups the ante on traditional puzzle games by incorporating strategy, role-playing elements and a persistent storyline. Set in the Warlords universe, the game challenges players to save the land of Etheria from evil Lord Bane as gamers engage in battles fought by means of competitive, head-to-head "match-three" style puzzle games in one of three gameplay modes: Single-player, Instant Action or Multiplayer. Victory will advance a player's customisable hero, magical arsenal, creature companions and more—ultimately rewarding gamers at nearly every turn and deepening their immersion into the richly diverse world. The game's remarkable mix of classic puzzle gameplay and an abundant suite of characters, customisations, spells, companions, tameable monsters and more provides a fresh take on the puzzle genre that offers endless hours of replayability. Designed specifically for handheld gaming systems, Puzzle Quest can be enjoyed in long or short doses, cultivating a casual but deeply satisfying and compelling gameplay experience.

As Mr. Esc the Professional Escapologist you'll have to find your way through burning buildings, submerged subways and many other kinds of dangers. But you can't finish on your own, you'll need to enlist the help of any survivors you may come across. A great puzzle game that went largely unnoticed but a must have for any fan of puzzles.

The gameplay in Lumines II is very similar to its predecessor, Lumines. The object is still to move blocks of four different colored squares across the board; while trying to create a single square of the same colour. This all must be done before a "timeline" crosses the screen deleting the squares that you make. Deleting four or more squares will add a bonus multiplier to your score. (Refer to the Gameplay section of Lumines for more details).

Q Entertainment has announced that there will be no Infrastructure gameplay in "Lumines II". The game is visually similar to Lumines Live during both gameplay and in the menus.

This might seem a little dull at first, but as you play through the game you will unlock "skins" - each with their own special musical and graphical style.
