I'm hard pressed to name a comfier RPG. There's a huge lack of games that have innovative battle systems like this one. We need more games where stuff is solved with mini-games, such as gem matching or playing cards.

Wouldn't there be too much rng aspects here and less player agency or is there a way to manipulate what shows up on the grid?(I've never played Puzzlequest)

Good post. This game was really good. It certainly had its share of RNG bullshit, but it was pretty good overall. Sadly, I think the expansion made the game worse, so that was an L.

It's probably my favorite DS game if I had to pick one. Bought it on PC and Switch even. It's a shame they never made any sequels or spinoffs.

I don't care, it SUCKS. I can't believe this is how Warlords and Warlords Battlecry ended up. From the ultimate custom turn based fantasy strategy game to the best RTS/RPG hybrid by far, to a shitty mobile Bejeweled game. What the fuck. Shitty spinoff fuck.

>innovative battle system
>just shoves a wholeass non-RPG in there to waste your time and make your character less significant
Every time, same with those shitty rhythm games jarpiggers love so much.

God I remember this. I had the DS version and I played so fucking much of it that I can still play the entire soundtrack in my head.It was unbalanced as fuck, the AI was a cheating bastard, and you utterly broke the game over your knee by using the spell/armor crafting system. Deathbringer spam for days.
Unless the enemy had % resist red elemental spells, in which case you might not instantly win.Luv that game. Shame the only puzzle quest to come out in the last decade is a fucking gacha. Gems of War minus the gacha elements I would legitimately pay for, but fuck gacha milking me for ever, I ain't into that.

It is a puzzle game.

No we don't.

It's a fantastic game but the sucky ass resistance system will drive you mad once you reach the end game. I read somewhere some dev said it was a last minute decision and it fucking shows.

I fucking love Puzzle Quest. I wish they had to expanded version on Steam, it's only on Switch playstore. It's so good, they added a lot of stuff.

I'm playing with the new Swordmaster class and it's OK. Focuses on Air and Battle skills, and really just has one useful skill that's OP. I'll see how long that carries me, but I'm already getting walled by Dugog.All of my muscle memory is from the DS version, but in this one you can pull 5 in a row on diagonals. That's taking a lot of getting used to, but obviously leads to easier cascades and happy accidents.
