What relevance does the Puzzle Pirates link have with this game? 128.196.208.1 ( talk) 17:07, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
This pages needs an gigantic update. The game is out now, and its great Captain duck 17:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Anyone know what is going on with Nintendo Power's 4/10 rating for the DS version of this game? It is seriously slandering the game's otherwise good name and bringing down it's average rating at gamerankings. http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/934598.asp?q=puzzle%20quest JyL 17:40, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Nintendo Power believes in writing reviews based not on the opinions of the reviewer, nor on objective logic concerning the game but rather their prediction for the game's sales. The interesting thing is that by writing a review score so low, they partially fulfill their own prophecy. Most gamers are upset by the NP's failure to review a game properly due to this latest mistake. BlackVegetable 00:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
If I had only played the game for 5 minutes, I probably would have given it a low score too. The game doesn't look very polished (awkward dialogue, boring sprites, no graphical flair), there are some moderately serious UI issues (not giving you all the info on spells from the selection menu; how am I supposed to make a good choice if I don't know how much mana I need to cast it?), and the controls make it very easy to shoot yourself in the foot (accidentally touching the wrong thing will give you damage and skip your turn). On top of that, it's essentially just an extension of a puzzle game that's been around for years and already has several iterations on the DS.
Now, I *have* played it for more than 5 minutes so I know that the magic and skill mechanics are enough to distinguish it from other Bejeweled clones. Still, I think the above flaws are serious enough that the current reviews are a bit high. On the other hand, NP's review is far too low, I think it deserves something around 6 or 7 out of 10; a 4 is the equivalent of saying "this game is total crap." 63.102.70.70 19:10, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Anyone else find it amusing that you have to battle Rodents of Unusual Size in a place called Gildor? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.86.83.196 ( talk) 03:19, 23 April 2007 (UTC).
An "original story"? Although I have never played the game, I can assure you that if I had, the chances of me calling the story "original" would be very slim. Due to my lack of expertise, I am leaving the article be for the moment.
There's no official confirmation, so I haven't added anything to the article, but Amazon has this listed for the Wii, complete with cover art -- fueling speculation that this will be released for the console. Some links about it: [1] [2] [3] [4] -- MisterHand 16:38, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

The release dates paragraph sure seems like it would do better as a table, or could perhaps be eliminated in favor of the material in the infobox. A prose list of "Was released on X on Y. was released on P on Q. ..." doesn't seem appropriate.
I don't know what the usual style is for video games, so I'm not just doing it myself. Jordan Brown ( talk) 06:05, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Mobile Version for NA is out, and I've playing it since 3/APR/08 (and it was released before that).
Major differences:
Let me know if you need more details about the mobile version. This was on Verizon V.CAST network, played on LG VX8300 -- Kschang77 ( talk) 00:37, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
I added the line saying that the french/german release has fixed the companion bugs because I personally own said version (French box, booklet, game in English) and the companions DO work. I have not found this discussed anywhere else on the net though, so I can't provide a link 194.154.200.108 ( talk) 12:24, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Modred
I own the PSP and XBox 360 versions, and it was a shock for me the first time I discovered that all of the opponent-misses-a-turn spells have a recharge time on the XBox. The very powerful ones that make your opponent miss three or more turns can take as many turns to recharge. This feature is not present on the PSP version - apart from mana requirements, there are no restirctions on how often you can cast spells. Is this noteworthy, do you think? 165.142.249.81 ( talk) 03:20, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
It seem there is a lot of criticism concerning that in this game you're shown a rather large map but only about 1/3 is actually used creating the illusion that there is more to the game after defeating Lord Bane. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.83.75.110 ( talk) 22:00, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Seems the iPhone/iPad/iPod versions got pulled for whatever reason and are no longer available for purchase. (Puzzle Quest 2 is still available.) 174.55.184.14 ( talk) 22:12, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
As the remake has very similar gameplay to the original and not that much content on its own development (I was able to find this), it might be better to put the remake's reception as a subsection of the main article's Reception section and have the remake title redirect to the original title. We can add any additional development information about the remake to the original article.

Masem, you've reverted my change of "armor" to "armour"
here with the reason Dont switch spelling variants without good reason (article was written in US spelling)
. The reason I switched it was because this article has the template {{Use Australian English}}, and given that this was made in Australia, this is good reasoning per
MOS:TIES. What do you think? —
