Go! Puzzle Demo (PS3)
Time to start up the old PS3 for something other than watching DVDs and see what’s come to the Playstation Store recently. First up, the demo of Go! Puzzle, which packages three puzzle games together.
Swizzle Blocks is a game where you rotate groups of blocks to make squares. It hurts my head a bit, but seems fun.
Aquatica is a block-dropping, field-clearing type of game with a twist – the twist being that it’s the worst one I’ve ever played. Puyo Pop, Lumines, Tetris, Columns, Puzzle Fighter, etc., etc., etc. are all better than this, based on what I’ve seen. Of course, it could get much better if I give it a bit more time and I’m probably being horribly unfair, but the quick little go I had didn’t grab me at all.
Skyscrapers seems to be the best of the lot. You have to jump across playing fields using only – and all – squares of one colour, in a strict time limit. I started to enjoy this one before the demo ran out.
The trouble is, that you only get five minutes before the demo kicks you out. That’s not even enough time to get through the tuorial for Skyscrapers – I had to start it up twice before actually getting to play the game. Anyway, the price is okay. £1.99 per game, or all three for £3.99. That seems reasonable to me. I shall mull things over.
