Genimo Interactive today announced the release of Puzzle Hero, a game which blends traditional "Match-3" puzzle gameplay with certain aspects of the RPG genre. The game's plot arc involves the kidnapping of the player character's brother, Tristan, by the evil sorcerer Zalock and his Army of Darkness. In order to rescue Tristan, the player must guide his character through a series of quests, gradually growing in power in classic RPG style, until the climactic confrontation with Zalock himself. In order to defeat the foes encountered along the way, the player must employ the Match-3 mechanic to line up symbols corresponding to various attack and defense techniques. Puzzle Hero can be purchased from its official website - a playable demo is now locally mirrored.
