Puzzle Quest bound for iPhone

There goes every journey ever. Again.

D3Publisher has announced plans to bring Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords to iPhone and iPod Touch this autumn.

There's no word on a specific release date, but you will be able to find it on Apple's amazingly popular iTunes App Store once it's released.

Puzzle Quest, of course, is an RPG with puzzle elements, where players compete in a Bejeweled-style tile-switching game to whittle down their enemy's hitpoints by making skulls disappear and performing spells.

It was fabulously popular on DS, PSP and later on Xbox Live Arcade and PC, despite a weaker Wii version, and assuming the iPhone version takes advantage of the touch-screen for control, it should be good on Apple's platform.

Meanwhile, those of you who have had your fill can look forward to Neopets Puzzle Adventure from the same developer (Puzzle Quest with Othello instead of Bejeweled, effectively) or the sequel Puzzle Quest: Galactrix.
