14 DAY TRIAL // A Kotaku report reveals that a free version of Puzzle Quest for the iPhone and iPod Touch has been submitted to Apple. TransGaming is waiting to see the title released in the App Store, but this is not the company's only announcement.
According to the same report, the developers of Puzzle Quest for iPhone are releasing the second chapter of the game, offering another 20 hours of gameplay, free of charge to those who've already purchased the first chapter. The free / lite version of Puzzle Quest should also be hitting the App Store sometime around next week, the author claims.
While there are many variations on this simple, yet addictive gem matching puzzle game, Puzzle Quest is the first to offer over twenty hours of storyline play, an enchanting music soundtrack, and an epic role-playing adventure suitable for casual and hard-core gamers alike, according to TransGaming.
From the iTunes App Store, the official description of the game goes as follows:
...Begin your Quest Today!
Swap four different colors of gems, gold coins and attack skulls, in order to create matching rows of three or more. Alternating turns on the puzzle board, each move offers the ability to create matches that can grow your magic powers or attack your opponent. With each successive victory you travel closer to the ultimate battle with Gruulkar, leader of the Orcs.
