Puzzle Quest: Immortal Edition Switch NSP Free Download Romslab Maybe you aren’t familiar with this title, and Puzzle Quest: Immortal Edition is your first taste of this unique classic. Well, it’s still quite a blast. It’s an RPG where the player gets to choose a class, give it all sort of attributes, skills and items, then move around on a top-down map completing story missions, side quests, hunting down monsters, hearing rumors at the bar, buying equipment. The story is really nothing special, and it’s pretty close in structure to a JRPG – except the combat isn’t done in traditional ways, but via the art of match 3.

A game like Candy Crush or Bejeweled, you know the drill – you have a 8×8 board with coloured gems and you need to create combos. Puzzle Quest‘s approach is different though, because you don’t just have to make big combos or capture colours. Each colour represents a certain type of mana, which then can be spent on skills. There’s skull gems to attack the enemies, purple gems giving XP, coin gems giving money and so forth. The player and the enemy take turns, so on top of trying to build our strategy, we have to ensure we don’t leave opportunities too great for our foe either.

Experience the original Puzzle Quest: Challenge of Warlords, Revenge of the Plague Lord, and The Legend Returns all together.

It’s a mighty addictive formula for a very lengthy campaign with tons of replayability, as the player can find new and new synergies between magic skills and playstyles. It also had a PvP multiplayer mode in some versions – that’s gone from Puzzle Quest: Immortal Edition, which is quite baffling. It’s also not a Play Anywhere title, unfortunately. What’s surprising about Puzzle Quest is that an easy victory is never a given. Whoever has the most cunning starts first and usually has the advantage. From thereon, it’s a case of thinking carefully about each move, especially when it comes to leaving a trio of skulls on the grid. Slime 3K: Rise Against Despot Switch NSP

If there’s an opportunity to attack, most of the time the AI will do so. This extends to thinking one step ahead to prevent skull icons from being potentially matched on the next turn. The AI will deal heavy blows in quick succession, draining the health bar significantly – right to the point where restarting a battle is the only smart choice. Indeed, it often feels like luck is on the AI’s side, particularly when a bunch of skulls cascade from above. Perhaps I was imagining things, but it did seem that battles are tough on the first attempt – resulting in a defeat, or a close call win – and easier on the second.

Mana used to cast spells, battle opponents, collect items and rewards, and advance in the quests!

As if the AI has been programmed to be less aggressive when retrying a battle. In fewer words: I had to play a lot of battles twice. Learning and overcoming the AI’s devious ways does at least prevent this from being brainless, with each battle raising the stakes a little. There are a few variations on the match-three theme, including limited move puzzle scenes to catch potential mounts, and an armour/weapon forging mini-game in which anvils must be destroyed by using surrounding skulls. The castle homebase can be expanded too, including a dungeon to capture foes to learn their attacks for your own use. Slime Tactics Switch NSP

These features may surprise those who’ve never played Puzzle Quest before, expecting something more akin to Bejewelled. The core of Puzzle Quest hasn’t changed, and honestly, that’s a good thing. You select a hero, choosing from several classes like rogue, wizard, and others, and set out across Etheria, taking on quests, battling monsters, and seeking riches. The twist is that all combat takes place on a gem-studded board. Because we all know it’s best to solve our problems with puzzles over fists. You and your opponent take turns matching gems.

Capture monsters and play the research mini-game to learn their spells

Matching different colours fills up your various coloured mana pools, which you can then spend on spells unique to your class. Match skulls, and you deal direct damage. Chain four or five in one move? You earn an extra turn, which can swing a battle in your favour. It sounds simple, but it’s far more strategic than it appears. You’ll often find yourself weighing up whether to set up a killer combo for yourself or deny your opponent an even deadlier one. It’s a system that remains elegant, addictive, and surprisingly tense, even two decades on. Almost like chess at times.

The Immortal Edition pulls together content from Challenge of the Warlords, Revenge of the Plague Lord, and The Legend Returns. That means tons of quests, side quests, and extra modes to get lost in. Progression feels rewarding: you earn gold and experience, level up your hero, and invest points into stats that shape your playstyle. You’ll also spend money on weapons, armour, and trinkets that grant handy bonuses. The Citadel is another layer entirely, letting you construct buildings that unlock features like researching captured monsters (to learn their spells) or forging magical items.
