About This Game Puzzle Strike is a deckbuilding puzzle game played amongst Fantasy Strike characters. It's inspired by puzzle games such as Puzzle Fighter. Gems fall into each player's gem pile every turn, and whoever's gem pile fills up first loses. Improve your deck (of chips!) by purchasing new chips as the game unfolds. Will you go heavy on economy, offense, or build an intricate engine? In any case, make sure to adapt to your opponents because Puzzle Strike has a lot more interactivity than most other deckbuilders. And like the other games in the Fantasy Strike universe, Puzzle Strike is designed to hold up to thousands of games at the expert level, and we fully embrace the philosophy of even-playfield competition.The new Steam version of Puzzle Strike (as well as the upcoming iOS release) have these new features:Runs natively on Mac, PC, and Linux (new!)Cross-platform play with players on iOS (coming soon), Steam or the web version on FantasyStrike.comChips have 4x the resolution as the web versionIssue challenges to people on your Steam friend listClimb the leaderboards in Quick Match and check out replays of top players to improve your game!New Puzzle Challenge mode: learn advanced character tactics and think outside the bag!

Yes, that weird Street Fighter spin-off game that plays like Tetris, but isn't quite Tetris. So how does it work? This game is actually a deck-builder similar to games like Dominion. Unlike most deck-builder, this one has a lot more interaction between players and the ultimate goal is to defeat your opponent by crashing Gems into your opponent's gem pile (similiar to filling up your screen in Tetris or Super Puzzle Fighter). The game is also a bit assymetric compared to other deck-builder games in which each player selects a character. Each character has 3 special ability "chips" (cards) that makes them different from other characters changing up how a person plays the game and the strategy they employ. There is more to the game but this, like Yomi, is easy to learn but challenging to master. The PC adaptation is solid, and I think it plays better than the physical boardgame counter-part due to everything being automated.For more information, check out Watch It Played's Puzzle Strike Guide: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Og01q5_zbD8. I own the tabletop version. This is not a bad port - looks pretty cheap, but works well. It is, unfortunately, double the price it should be.Probably still worth it if you're planning on spending dozens of hours on the multiplayer, but if you're looking for singleplayer, stay away.. Nice game mechanics, probably one of the best for that type of the game. AI is weak, multiplayer is dead. Kinda fun as a fast solitaire type of thing.Still, i think Star Realms and Through the Ages are better.. If this game didn't have deep systemic problems, more of the reviewers recommending it would be playing it. But the matchmaking is dead, and that speaks volumes.Here are some reasons why:Random banks skew matchups far too drastically. It's a shame, because when this game works, in a fair matchup, it can be glorious.This game either needs a chip drafting stage before the game starts (adding to gameplay length, unfortunately), or it needs to let you see the random bank and then pick your character (this is how the remaining fans currently run tournaments).Also, the power level spread on the characters is far to wide. There are barely a handful of tournament-viable characters.There are ample technical glitches, but the UI is totally slick. This IS the best way to play Puzzle Strike, from an interface perspective.In light of the game's issues, not a lot of people play it, so good luck finding opponents.. I love the table top version of this game. It's a lot of fun and has a great amount of depth. The video game version of this is, however, extremely janky, confusing, and not worth your time. This is a great game ruined by horrible UI and controls. I was hoping it would be an updated version of the Puzzle Strike you find on their website but it's even jankier than that. Pass on this.You can give this a try before you buy it at http:\/\/www.fantasystrike.com\/. If this game didn't have deep systemic problems, more of the reviewers recommending it would be playing it.
