It’s usually not a normal thing for me to have my eye drawn to a puzzle game, but for some reason Blitz Games’ KrissX had me fancying a little dabble into the world of words that it has created with help from Konami. Is 800 points a suitable price for this dictionary inducing break from shooting stuff, or is it a case of having a little bit of fun before the boredom kicks in?
To say that KrissX is simple is a massive understatement. It doesn’t have a huge amount of moving parts and keeps everything nice and limited to one screen. The only companion you have is a little owl, who sits there nice and calmly in the left hand corner. He doesn’t really say anything, but he does occasionally look at you funny, almost like you stole his pint when he wasn’t looking.
