Any puzzle game fan should have no problem with this one. & thats 1 gripe about this one. An unbalanced levelling up system thats easy as hell can make u strong & breeze thru story mode. The gameplay is similar to Puzzle Fighter, which is cool. & being able to equip 8 different items is also cool. Having a warbeast is sweet as well. The store really isnt necessary if u can beat the treasure & forging mini games, preferrably the former first. The voices are weak along with the characters looks. But the main gripe about this one is WAY TOO MUCH LOADING TIME, no matter what system u get this one for. So, if u want to get something as a warmup for Puzzle Quest 2, its this one.

I'm a big PuzzleQuest fan, and thought I would try Puzzle Chronicles looking for another puzzle game that had some RPG elements worked into it. Puzzle Chronicles was a big disappointment. The graphics look like they are ported from a PS1 game, and the load times are horrendously slow on my PSP. The gameplay is inferior to a puzzle game such as PuzzleQuest. I expected this, but the graphics and slow loading make the game unbearable. I give it two stars only because it is one of few releases in a genre I enjoy and wish they made more of.

If you're a fan of the Puzzle Quest series you should try Puzzle Chronicles. Not as grand as PQ but entertaining none the less. PC is graphically inferior and less engaging than either of the PQ games but well worth the low price to obtain this title, check it out.
