Aside from using different strategies for the various opponents, the match 3 battles themselves never change much throughout the game’s story. You’d think this would be a negative, but Puzzle Quest remains addictive throughout the crazy amount of content presented in this package. Even if you lose interest in the story (a kingdom under attack, precarious alliances, a lone warrior who must rise up, etc.), the gameplay carries itself well. I also found it fun to try out the capabilities of the new weapons I acquired (such as an early one that came with the chance to add a skull to the playing field with with each strike) and helpers (like the friendly fellow who instantly does 10 damage to the undead at the beginning of the round).
