Great Game
It reminds me of the game Zuma, but it has extras. With Zuma the balls you shoot change, but with this game they fall and you have to catch them, you have more options to destroy the bals.

Looped Out
Puzzle games have always been a big hit or miss when it comes to excitement. ince Tetris was released for the Game Boy back in the late 80's, many gamers have always desired a taste for the addiction of a puzzle game. Yet, with all the success of a good puzzle game, there always has to be a knockoff to another one. Last year, Nintendo relased Magnetica, a addictive knockoff to one of the most addictive puzzle games on the computer, Zuma. Nevertheless, it seems like the PSP is trying that in the same suit as well, when a Nintendo DS game makes it big. They had a knockoff with the addictive puzzle games, Brain Age and Big Brain Academy into the game Mind Quiz earlier this year. Now, they did it with the same way Magnetica was, and that is in this game.
Luxor for the PSP, takes on the simialr action and excitement that Zuma had for other puzzlers. The object of the game is very simple, you have to make sure and protect the end of your line, by connecting the same colored balls by shooting balls, and removing them from a lengthy row of balls coming toward the goal line that you have to keep secure. The game features over 100 levels of addiction that may thrill some gamers who haven't played the loop puzzle games. Nevertheless, if you've mastered the other ones like Magnetica or Zuma, you might not feel as if it is as challenging. The graphics handle very well on the PSP, as well the sound, but the control is a little bit tricky to master at first, but for others who've mastered these games before, might find it easier.
All in all, Luxor isn't a bad puzzle game for the Sony PSP, but I just wish that it could've been a bit more challenging. If you've played Zuma before, and mastered it you might not be interested in this. I thought it was interesting, but not a must buy.
