Whether you feel as though Galactrix is a small step or a giant leap on from Puzzle Quest depends on a vast array of factors: whether you prefer the space setting, the new emphasis on economy, the focus shift away from battles to a more diverse range of non-combative tasks and, of course, the deeper but less accessible core gem-matching game. But for us, the result is a dilution, not a distillation of Puzzle Quest's relentlessly compelling formula. It's a game that drives the franchise too deep into niche territory, where it loses sight of the elegance and simplicity which turned the match-three genre into an everyman phenomenon.
