  1. It turns out that, as further progress is made through the levels, KrissX becomes a challenging, engaging game, that's actually quite delightful.
  2. KrissX will be a worthy addition to anybody who enjoys a laid-back puzzler that doesn't provide an over-stimulating challenge.
  3. With its 150 puzzles and three different gameplay variants, KrissX should give you a few hours of quality enjoyment, even though its pricing could have been smaller. It may not be a breakthrough in the puzzle genre but it’s definitely an amusing, simple but still challenging game to experience.

    Word puzzle enthusiasts may be drawn in by the concept of KrissX, and PopCap fans may be fooled by the similar presentation style, but the lack of challenge and depth makes the game lackluster.
  5. 60
    If you enjoy word puzzles there are certainly cheaper alternatives, and without a solid online community or any multi-player to speak of, it falls flat.
  6. There is a lot of presentation but not much substance and the whole game comes off as something that would be better played on my iPhone than my Xbox. This leisurely puzzle games just don’t work that well on the console, especially when there is no multiplayer support or reason to play past the first pass.
