Hey everyone, I'm here to recommend a game to you guys (again).
The game is an Xbox LIVE Arcade game, called "Puzzle Quest". It's a puzzle game, but it's also an RPG. You do quests, gain friends, fight monsters, and more. The way you fight enemies is by using what they call "Mana". There's 4 different types of Mana. Yellow Mana, Red Mana, Blue Mana, and Green Mana. Mana allows you to cast spells. You get Mana by matching three or more Yellow, Blue, Green, or Red Mana Gems together.
There's spells you can unlock to attack your enemy with, but the main way to do damage to them is to use the gems called "Skulls". Skulls are, you guessed it, skulls. There's two different types of skulls, Normal (White) Skulls, and +5 (Black and glowing Red) Skulls. Normal skulls do an average of 5 damage, and +5 Skulls do +5 damage than normal skulls, and they also explode, giving you whatever gem that they blow up into that color of mana, or gold.
Pretty much, you just go around and attack monsters and do quests. There's nothing more than that, really.
There's something called your Citadel, which is a huge castle where you have to buy areas for it, such as a prison, Wizard's Tower, and more. The Prison lets you capture enemies that you've fought more than three times, and you can have them teach you spells, or they can become your mount. The Wizard's Tower allows you to research spells your enemies have used against you, but there's a downside to it, it costs 50% more mana than the enemy has to use. (Which is kinda lame...)
But it is 800 MS Points, and I think it's amazing. It's worth it. There's the trial for the game, and I'd try it to see if you like it.
