The story is a tired repeat of the dragons returning. Play is purposely made to be difficult to have an excuse for an extreme amount of cash-grab "do it right now" microtransactions. Check my screenshots of this game for 4 examples of what I'm conveying in this review. Gone are the days of playing Puzzle Quest 1 and 2 offline... Maybe starting up Puzzle Quest Galactrix and exploring the stars. Now you need internet and the ever-growing annoyance of instant offers, V.I.P. points, timegates, and more. I love Puzzle Quest, but I am sad at what the franchise has become.
