  1. The puzzle is the main draw for Galactrix with the RPG elements mostly along for the ride. But I will say that there were enough RPG elements to give it a fresh take and the puzzle element was more than worth the price of admission.
  2. 85
    The developers really hit on something with the Puzzle Quest formula, and I'll be on board as long as they can keep it engrossing.
  3. 68
    One for fans only. [Issue#181, p.89]
  4. Shady A.I., gameplay that gets stale fast, and a story that is impossible to decipher when you're losing to the enemy forces in the first turn means you should avoid Puzzle Quest Galactrix.

  1. Maybe its me, but are reviewers trying to squash certain games??? based on the reviews of pq galactrix and pq chronicles I have AVOIDED thes games for months....MONTHS!!! HEY i said freek it I want them anyway today..LIKE WOW...bad graphics? boring? dudes did they issue a patch while u slept??? SORRY I AM LUVN THIS...IT IS STAR TREK PUZZLE GAMED OUT!!! I DONT KNOW ... maybe u see somethin i dont im jumping through leapgates tracking down this thing that escaped. im battlin aliens, running errands for the federations, helping people, the graphics are like bejeweled2 or blur in that they are crsp and pop...eye candy...it plays like bejeweled2 or puzzle quest except its an octogon and the pieces dont move unless u match em and then some slide in to take there place. theres 50 or 60 hours of play here. and different modes of play. mining, battles, and hacking leapgates all play different so u dont get bored. there is a ton to explore and a few trophies utimately this is a puzzle game...however modern warefare, bad comany, and medal of honor are all first person shooters done by different comanys but play pretty much the same...at least with quest, galactrix and chronicles they play wildly different...chronicles will make u say wtf? as it is sideways. if u are a trekkie who likes puzzle games this is it but the nature of the game is on both...be curious and explore...
