Puzzle Quest available for PC in German(y)
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords that was originally released for DS, PSP, and Xbox 360 and teased PC players with a demo only is now available for PC on the German site Gamesload. It costs 19,95 € and is a full German version. This easy-to-learn 2D fantasy RPG replaces traditional turn-based fights against monsters with a clone of the popular puzzle game Bejeweled. The English version can be bought at GamersGate at the same price.

What do you guys think about Puzzle Quest? Is it a rip-off for 20 bucks (or 1200 M$ pts. for the Xbox 360)?
I think that "Puzzle Quest" is great, although I can't really comment on the "Why?" yet.
I've got it for the DS and it's one of those games that forces you to rather turn the DS than the laptop on when you're at home. It's one of these games, where you just want to have ONE fight and then ... well, you can imagine where I am getting at.
And it's definitely worth the money, not a loveless rip-off and tactically very, very challenging 'cause of some great new ideas.
Oh, and mind you: It's definitely not just a clone of "Bejeweled".
If it is the same game as on the PSP, its definitly worth the money. I have played it for hours, first there is the classical addictive bejewled gameplay and then this is wraped in a cool story - for 20 € you get at least 20 hours of fun.
If you are intrested, take a look at the ratings:

I personally will buy it tonight and think it's worth it. But I know from playing the demo that I will play the game at least for 20 hours or more (even if that will be on lunch breaks, train rides, etc.) - Especially if you don't know Bejeweled 2 (without the fantasy story around it and therefore without the special attacks of your opponents) get a demo of Puzzle Quest first. You can play it as often as you want without time limitation, but you can only get level 6 (I think) characters and won't learn new spells etc. after that. The demo will probably give yourself a very reliable impression of whether or not the full game will be worth 20 € to you.
Edit: And, having bought and played the game for about 10 hours now I can say that the Citadel - which is not part of the demo - adds a vast array of tactical possibilities: You can capture enemies, learn their spells, get a regular gold income from conquered cities etc.
