    The surprising thing is that while it may sound like a bad afternoon in school, the game is actually astonishingly addictive. [Mar 2006, p.96]

    Frantic and intense, but also one of frustration and at times illogical confusion.

    Those looking for a deep, involving puzzle game will find it in PQ: Practical Intelligence Quotient. There are a good number of puzzles, most of which offer enough of a challenge to engage puzzle nuts without distancing novices.

    It’s not the most attractive or colorful problem-solving game compared to the recently released Lemmings, but it’s still briefly addictive.

    In spite of its flaws, PQ is an extremely addictive, innovative title that gives PSP-owning puzzle fans a welcome break from falling-block games.

    This kind of thing seems like a perfect fit for squeezing in a few minutes on a portable system, not to mention that it's a brand-new game and not a spin off or sequel to something found on the PS2.
  7. Detroit Free Press

    PQ doesn't fare well when compared with the likes of "Lumines," chess or crosswords -- or even Sudoku, the new grid in town. By those standards, PQ is a pretty poor relation in the family of cerebral games.
