I love these particular types of games and this one offers a challenge different from the rest. The different colors combined into one puzzles without seperating them out is great and offers more challenge than previously seen in most games. I will be purchasing this game for sure.
I understand having a timer in games, but this one is a bit absurd in its expectations. Playing relaxed this is a great game. The graphics are pretty and the puzzles interesting. It lost a star for me on the timer being way too short. I am experienced at these types of games and I can barely make the timer with 2 - 3 attempts during the first unassisted levels.

This game is kind of a puzzle mixed with arcade action. I always try zombie themed games, but this one is only about how fast you are and not much more. When I downloaded it I thought it was side scroller but it is an autorun. The zombies on normal take off racing and it just wasn't any fun. I passed and would not recommend this game unless you are looking to test your reflexes.
I found this to be a very good time management game. The game play is excellent, the storyline is excellent as were all in this series. However, the find the mouse thing really frustrates me especially since I am usually concentrating on the actual time management portion of the game. If the mouse stayed in one place and you had to find it sometime during the round then I would probably have purchased the entire series. However, the mouse comes and goes and I find it frustrating. For this game I recommend trying it before you purchase it.
This game is an interesting mix of RPG & HOG. Very similar to the first one but much longer. The extension of play time made this game well worth the money. You gather ingredients, make trades, and explore new lands. The first one had very few monsters, but this one includes a lot more fighting rather than just hunting. This game is not for everyone since it is not action packed, but for those that enjoy RPG & HOG it is almost the perfect mix. Replay value is not very high, but I imagine in a few months I will probably go through it again. The only real draw back I found was that it does not allow for multiple games to be played at the same time. If someone else in your family wants to play then they either pick up where you are or erase your game to start a new one.

I have really enjoyed this game. The unique game style of using the match 3 to explore the map and find items really fit with my gamer style that you see in many RPG games. I would most certainly purchase similar games. That being said there are a couple things that I really thought needed tweeking. First there were a couple of times that I ended a level too soon by either dropping tiles below a rune not realizing that the cascade effect would loosen the rune or simply by collecting a rune that I did not realize would end the level. I think there should be a more clear cut goal per level or the rune that end needs to be marked as such. Second, there were a couple of extra goals that I simply was unable to do and I am not really sure why. There was a level that asked you to find the secret area which seems really fun except I traveled the entire map at least 10 times and was unable to find anything that even resembled somewhere else I could go. I found that to be very frustrating. All and all though this was a great, unique way to do match 3 and I love it.
I recommend this game!

I did not play this game for very long based on the really poor instructions. I am not even truly sure what kind of game it is. I know that it has some hidden object elements that did not seem to be too difficult, but the rest of it is lost on me.
I don't recommend this game.

I purchased this game a long time ago and am just now going through and doing reviews. This is by far my favorite of all the solitaire games I have tried. The mini games are fun and do not distract from the actual game play much. Many games have tried to match this one and have failed. I find myself replaying this game to see if I can beat my previous stores and even my dad has taken a turn trying to beat my top scores.

This game is unique among match 3 type games that I have played in that instead of giving you a board with tiles on it; you have to place the tiles in sets of 3 that are given to you. I found this game challenging and fun to play. I purchased it and have not finished it yet, but my play time is limited. I would recommend this game to anyone that enjoys puzzles. The voice overs remind me of the Mortal Combat guy.

As far as match 3 goes I liked the concept and building aspect of this game. After finishing the trial I purchased it. It was decent if you like match 3s, but I completed the game very quickly and it was quite short.
