    For the price, this is one hell of an adventure, and the gameplay experience is just about as refined as can be.

    NyxQuest is a fine example of a mobile game that successfully makes the transition from other platforms to reach a wider, and different, audience. It plays like it should have been a game made for touch interfaces from the start, and it's the kind of game that would probably do well on a handheld's downloadable service.

    Originally on WiiWare, there are some concessions to the touch screen with virtual buttons occasionally getting in the way of objects you need to move. This is a small price to pay for such a wondrous platformer at a fraction of the price.

    Nyx Quest isn't a bad game but its obvious flaws diminish the overall experience. Between an original yet poorly thought out gameplay, a distinct lack of variety, and limited content, we're forced to admit that the potential for fun is seriously undermined.
