With this manna you can do all kinds of magic or special attacks, depending on the character and abilities you have. You have to join colored pieces into groups of three or more to get manna of the corresponding color or to attack the enemy. Game play is practically the same as in the first game in the saga.

Puzzle Quest 2 is a different kind of role playing game in which, instead of the usual combat that uses brute force to massacre your opponents, you find fun puzzle duels in which skill and intelligence become more important.
