Gamers who are hoping for something they can pick up and play for ten to fifteen minutes may find some amusement in Puzzle Quest Galactrix; however, for those who want a game they can spend a few hours with, Galactrix has very little to recommend it. The game suffers from poor design, sloppy controls, and tear-your-hair-out, frustrating gameplay.

Now, instead of spending $10 for the Galactrix and Challenge of the Warlords entries, you can get them both for only $1 each.
In this second of four parts, we discuss how games based purely on luck are little more than immoral cash cows for the people who produce them - and represent some of the worst design choices out there.
