For a particular category of gamers, who could not digest the incredibly fictitious genre of games, settle with games that puzzle them. These games could tweak your brain like never before and would drive you harder to sit with it. Puzzle games have gained prominence among people for centuries. It may be because they offer real time situations, and getting out of the complex loop gives a great feeling to the players by the end of the game.
The Bust-A-Move, popularly known as BaM, is a puzzle game, where the players can use the orbs located at the bottom of the screen and launch them to clear the bubbles. Bubbles are multi colored and as you launch the orbs you have to try and match at least three colors. As the game advances, the bubbles will slowly be forced down towards the deadline. If the bubbles cross the deadline, the game is over. BaM offers almost 300 puzzles in the classic mode and there are several other modes available in the game.
The most exciting of the modes is the ghost mode, where the bubble bounces off a wall before it sticks to another orb. On its way to the wall, if there are any objects hindering its progress, the bubble passes through them. In Bust-A-Move players have to think in advance to plan on what kind of shots they have to use. There is a heart-meter than increases once you fail to clear a set of bubbles. When the heart-meter reaches five notches, the game ends.
The Bust-A-Move Deluxe features colorful graphics that look nice on the PSP’s wide screen, and the bright color combination is one of the attractive features of the game. However, it would have been nice if there were different themes as the game progresses with the puzzles. The players who have experienced the game earlier in the other gaming consoles feel to be missing the classic BaM music in the PSP version. But the music in the PSP version is not bad either. On the whole the Bust-A-Move Deluxe is a convincing puzzle game with innovative features and seriously challenging puzzles. With all these exciting elements, it is one game worth playing.
