The game appears to be Puzzle Quest, but jewels drop Tetris-style from the side. The title features online and offline versus modes and five minigames. Check out some of the screens below!

So they're retreading the same ground all the while making it look like a terrible flash game?

ugh...
Puzzle quest is a game that hates you.. even when you seem to be winning... bam.. enemy gets a heroic effort and kicks your arse.
Then the thing broke on me... game really hates me.
But I'll buy it again for super cheap so I can continue to lose...
Will this game hate me just as much? Probably

A sorry case of a one trick pony ending up being killed and then beaten to a pulp.
Puzzle Quest was a great game spun from a new idea. The last thing it needed was for it to be remixed and repackaged in 20 different ways.

New idea as in the mixing of a bejeweled like puzzle game with RPG elements.

I just got the original puzzlequest earlier this year, and even after the hype of it's concept was long gone, I found this to be a great game.
Galaxtrics didn't look very good though, And honestly, most of these spinoffs and knockoffs look worse.
I'd much rather see someone go full force with the novelty of it all. Like a tetris Based puzzle game where the Tetris pieces are the heroes (Except for Zig Zag, which is the villain).

I'm very curious to see how Puzzle Chronicles turn out, the visuals aren't terribly important as long as the game play remains addictive.
As for the current offering... aside from the excessive gate hacking, I didn't think Galactrix was all that bad (although it was admittedly inferior to it's predecessor). If there was a patch that replaced hacking gates with defeating "gate keepers" I'd be much happier.

The gate hacking definitely needs reworking, its the only part of the game I don't really like.

I'm with you there. Comparatively, it doesn't measure up to Puzzle Quest, but it's enjoyable. The gate-hacking is monotonous, and I think it lacks the variety that Puzzle Quest had in its minigames, but for portable entertainment (I play it DS), I'm still glad I bought it.
The Tetris-variant might be fun. I do hope it's a bit more of a departure than Galactrix (which could have tweaked the formula a bit more).

Sounds like Columns and with Sega uninterested in non Sonic games this is a good thing.

Wow...I had to look that one up! I'm usually pretty good at those sorts of words, but thank you Urban Dictionary!
