One of the best puzzle games I’ve had the pleasure of playing recently is Puzzle Quest: Galactrix.  A beautiful three-way hybrid of RPG, action and puzzle, it’s got a great storyline and the kind of gameplay that keeps me coming back.

You’ll play a pilot in the service of a megacorporation that helped redeem earth from catastrophe and expanded outward into the stars.  Along the way you’ll battle pirates, mine asteroids, redeem bases from the grips of their automated defense systems and plenty more besides.  The galaxy is a pretty big place, and so, there’s plenty to do.

I love how they combined so many elements that probably shouldn’t have anything to do with each other and brought them together into a massive, beautiful whole.  This game is hours of fun, and all for sixteen hundred Microsoft points.  Try this sucker out–you won’t be disappointed!
