  • Abstract:  It is fast becoming apparent - to this reviewer at least - that the PlayStation Portables better games are based in the puzzle genre, closely followed by racing titles, with third-person action and first-person shooter offerings stumbling about blindl...

  • Though not as difficult as the first game, there are still some very challenging levels; puzzle gaming just doesn’t appeal to everyone, so this is not for everyone.
  • Mercury Meltdown offers a new twist on an old board game and does it with a style and pizzazz rarely seen in the PSP’s somewhat narrow world. This is definitely worthwhile for anyone who likes challenging puzzle games.

  • The original Mercury was original in design and quite fun, and possibly a bit too challenging for the more casual gamers. Mercury Meltdown takes those core concepts and lightens things up with bright cheery visuals and music, and more accessible gamepl...

  • Abstract:  Gamers had mixed feelings about the first Mercury, myself included. While it was a great puzzle game, there were many distracting annoyances in the gameplay and overall design. Well, Mercury Meltdown for the PSP is one of those sequels that does everyt...

  • Abstract:  Tory Favro9.1Mercury MeltdownYou know what? This is a neat little game! The second in the series on the PSP, Meltdown has been streamlined from the first in order to create a game that is a lot easier to get into than the first title and also a hell o...

  • Fantastic concept, that works just well enough on the PSP. Huge number of levels. "Just one more go" gameplay
  • Sounds are a bit weak. The PSP analogue nub is not best suited to this at times!
