So far, I've played Puzzle Quest on PSP, DS and iPod touch. I only played it briefly on DS and iPod touch, but the game just doesn't get old. I only have the PSP version now, and I had to start a new save, but even two years or so after I first played it, I find myself playing it when I have a few minutes to game.

There's something about Bejewelled in the first place that makes it endlessly fun. The mechanics are simple, but seeing the effects of each move in the falling pieces is satisfying. Add in RPG elements, and Puzzle Quest is a winner. The story is an excuse for the game to march you around the map and hurl enemies at you, but it's well written and it adds some atmosphere to the game. The art is solid, if a little generic.

There are very few games that have as much replay value as Puzzle Quest. Maybe it's the fact that I haven't over-saturated myself with the sequels and spin-offs, but this formula works for me. It's not a game that I'll consciously choose when I have a few hours to game, but it gets its fair share of time for sure.
