Brave: Shamen's Challenge preview for Nintendo DS

Brave: Shamen's Challenge is a new puzzle game for the DS that mixes Tetris with magic, sort of. It requires you to match up various dropping shapes to elimate lines, but also to create various patterns that wull trigger spells to do your work for you. It's a tweaked gameplay for a successful formula, but Brave: Shamen's Challenge's slick presentation and colourful graphics are likely to make it an attracive addition to DS puzzle addicts' collections.

The puzzle genre is very wellrepresented on the DS, with titles ranging from Polarium, through the thoughtful Picross to the frantic Meteos. Joining the latter – and tilematching king Planet Puzzle League – is SouthPeak's forthcoming Brave: Shamen's Challenge, which once again tilts the DS onto its side to curry favour with the Brain Training crowd. In truth, the vertical hold is more down to the game mechanics than anything else, with that particular viewpoint allowing the play area room to breathe, and the player to react to the tiles falling into place. So what does Shamen's Challenge offer to make it stand out in a crowded genre? Well, for starters it's got some superb presentation, with our Native American hero's world represented via colourful handpainted displays, and lush outdoor backdrops.
