Puzzle Quest turned out to be a surprise hit with portable gamers. IGN gave the PSP version a 9.0, and the DS version was a best-seller for Nintendo's handheld at the end of March. In the videogame world success equals more games, and developer Infinite Interactive is now giving Puzzle Quest the sci-fi treatment.

A new puzzle game with RPG elements called Galactrix is currently in development for the PC, DS, PSP, and Xbox Live Arcade. Its official description, a "blend of puzzle, RPG, and strategy genres set in a sci-fi world," could easily be describing Puzzle Quest if you switched out "sci-fi" with "fantasy." It's another match-3 game played against an opponent, either a single computer or two-to-four human puzzlers in multiplayer.

Instead of creating a warrior or knight, in Galactrix you'll create a pilot and set out to conquer the galaxy in campaign mode. Companions will join your crew and aid you in battle.

Infinite Interactive says the game will include online multiplayer and downloadable content, but it is unclear at this point whether or not this feature will show up in each version of the game.
