Likepeanut butter and chocolate or French fries and ice cream, PuzzleQuest: Challenge of the Warlords seemingly odd mix of genres justworked. It resulted in a surprisingly deep and layered experience fromboth its role-playing and puzzling parts. The sequel--Puzzle Quest2--doesnt stray far from the core of the original but introducesseveral new additions to make it a more accessible experience. Theoutcome is mixed, with a more fun and varied puzzle side coexisting witha less engaging role-playing half. Improved looks and an interestingnew multiplayer mode make the Xbox Live Arcade version of the game thesuperior one available, and while overall Puzzle Quest 2 is a lessengrossing experience than its popular predecessor, its still anaddictive and at times compelling game.
 The stronger half ofthis sequel is its puzzle side, which once again sees you having tomatch jewels and items by sliding them around a rectangular 8-by-8 grid(ditching the hexagonal play field used in Puzzle Quest: Galactrix).When in battle, you need to match three or more skulls to do damage, ormatch three or more different-colored gems to earn the mana that fuelsyour various spells and special attacks. Matching four or more of thesame type of gem grants you another turn, and this, coupled with thevarious spells you can launch to assist your efforts or impede yourfoes, adds a significant strategic layer to the gameplay. You constantlyneed to think a few moves ahead to ensure that you dont leave youropponent in an advantageous position, and you also have to strategicallytarget which gems to grab to make the best use of your spells andabilities. The matches can be just as exciting and involving as theywere in the original; as a plus, this time around your opponents donthave the uncanny ability to earn continuous extra turns and go ondamaging runs at will. This makes Puzzle Quest 2 more fair than itspredecessor and makes your success more dependent on skill than luck.
