Review - Marvel Puzzle Quest

Are you cool? I mean really, are you cool? If you answered yes, you must be playing Marvel Puzzle Quest. If you said no, you are just another sheep playing "Candy Crush" BAA BAA sheep go drink your Hi-goat and play with your candy. Marvel Puzzle Quest is one in a long line of 'puzzle quest' game that follow the tried and true 'match three things' formula that is so popular today.  Confused? Yes? Do not panic!

I found this great app it's one part baseball game and one part card collecting game. The action is pretty simple. You are given a stack of your favourite team's cards to start and from there you can play the game to earn points to get better cards. It may seem quite juvenile but the sports part of the game is very strong.  The designers of the game smartly omitted what would likely be the hardest part on a mobile device: running and fielding.  one of the things I don't like is that your leveling up of a card can fail. This can be very annoyingas you will have to keep paying out more and more of your precious points! overall a great app for android. pros: good baseball action, fast paced, free cons: card collecting is slow and too random, power ups can be annoying
