"Well, what can I say, the DS is the premiere system for playing these puzzle style games, followed only slightly by the Wii. Apparently Nintendo has an affinity for puzzle games and wants everyone on the planet to know that if you have a hankering for a puzzle game, then the DS has 17,854 of them. Of course that is an exaggeration, but only slightly; there are so many different puzzle games on this system its not even funny.
But regardless of your gaming preferences, there are some puzzle-style games, like this one, which are aimed more directly at the casual gamer."
If you like video games and own a Nintendo DS, chances are you'll be rushing out to buy Chrono Trigger or some other time-consuming adventure, but if you're one of the millions that purchased a DS for the brain training style casual play then you'll more likely to be strolling out to buy Puzzler Collection - a collection of the most popular puzzles you'll usually find in a daily newspaper.
Possessing one of the lowest bargain prices available for DS software, Puzzler Collection may be just the ticket for those looking for a puzzle fix or for some software to interest the more casual gamer in the family. The book-like interface works well for the puzzles involved, leaving the player free to work on them as he or she wishes. With over 2,000 puzzles in a variety of difficulty levels, there's something here for nearly every puzzle fan.
While you do get a collection of puzzles to play, Puzzler Collection suffers from a lack of common sense in the design how those puzzles are presented. It feels bad knowing that real people worked on this game, only to have it be nearly unplayable by this reviewer. Keep most of your money and grab a copy of your local newspaper for your puzzle fix instead.
