Anyone who hasn't already tried Puzzle Quest, now is the time to grab the trial version, because I bet you will enjoy it.

Imagine a combination of turn-based combat, swapping jewels/gems a la Bejewelled, RPG elements like an inventory, armor, weapons and character stats, wrapped together with a story, other characters in your party, and a killer instrumental soundtrack.

The deal is completed with good Achievements and multiplayer support!

I agree fully with the Reverend about Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords! It's a great game and if you passed it by due to the original price, you should revisit this title come Wednesday!

PSORaine - I'm looking at you! ;)
