Puzzle Quest: Galactrix and Flock land on XBLA

Your IT - Entertainment

Aussie developed Puzzle Quest: Galactrix and the sheep abduction fun of Flock are about to beam down onto Xbox Live Arcade.

On April 8th the Xbox Live Arcade will be hosting two new and wildly different puzzle games.

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix, developed by Melbourne based Infinite Interactive makes the platform leap from Nintendo DS to the Xbox 360. 

The game is more than simply a space based version of the highly successful Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords.  Whilst still a colour matching hybrid of puzzle and RPG, the space theme allows for gravitational play, with matching and falling icons able to happen in six directions. 

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix will cost 1600 Microsoft Points (US$20) and will also make the journey to PC and PlayStation Network soon.

Flock tasks UFO pilots with the herding of sheep.  Protecting the dopy wool and mutton creatures from predators and other dangerous in an effort to beam them to the mothership, across over fifty single-player missions is the aim.

The PC already has a version of Flock, and the PlayStation Network will see Flock a day after XBLA.  Flock will be up for grabs at 1200 Microsoft Points (US$15).
