Set in the Warlords universe, the game challenges players to create, develop and customize the ultimate hero in order to save the land of Etheria from evil Lord Bane.

Puzzle Quest: Challenge of Warlords Mac review
Very addictive game. The simple storyline is the only reason why it didn't get 5 stars, but the gameplay itself is surprisingly fun, not to mention very simple i.e. anyone can play.
Aside from matching gems, you can also forge items and learn new spells from captured enemies, take over towns, recruit new team members, etc.
Would have liked to see more interesting side-quests other than just "fetch this, fetch that". Forked storylines and alternative endings would be interesting too.
The only other negative was that it cost double on the Mac version compared to the PC version. I have also experience a couple of annoying crashes on my Mac, but only very few and far in between.
Awesome game. Kept me well occupied the last couple of months and I'm already playing it again from the start after clocking it just now.
