I confess, I skipped through the mini games and used the hint on occasion because it's usually after a long day but the story kept me entranced. Well done! Well done!!!!
I recommend this game!

I tried to like this, the concept was intriguing. You cross lines and form crystal shards which is the goal. But it took FOREVER to move from one screen to another and I have a newer, powerful PC. The only words spoken were Hai and OH! and the English translations within the story were awkwardly translated (my best guess). Artwork OK, nothing remarkable. This one needs work.
I don't recommend this game.

after reading the comments, I had bypassed this a number of times. Needing to kill some time, I tried it with low expectations. What I found (based on the demo):
1. Music, pretty good, I didn't even turn it down or mute it, for once. Sound effects are excellent
2. Graphics? nothing to write home about, but very readable for size of tokens to match.
3. Help seems too limited. I discovered features on my own that I hadn't seen mentioned anywhere. Being able to reverse the direction of the arrows on the tokens was a big one. Maybe I missed something within the demo.
4. It actually was more challenging than the usual match 3 swap or chain because each token is governed by a directional arrow. You can only move them in the "branded" direction (except being able to reverse them at the board limits).
5. I did the timed selection which appears to be the default. I wasn't given the choice though it might be in the options or something. The timer was generous, VERY generous. I neared the limit once. The powerups were key to not exceeding the limit and they appeared often.

All in all its a neat game. I'd consider buying this one! My current favorites are Zenerchi and Dragonstone. Dragonstone is more of an arcade game.
I recommend this game!
Enjoy 4 games at the price of one - Click Art, Cupidometry, Hawaiian Drops and Pop-a-Pearl. Four times more unforgettable fun!

And I'm wondering if 3 years old isn't too old. This game(s) makes me think of beginning coding packaged to be a game. It's all the same, just different shapes: bubbles, hearts - not even shapes in need of learning to prep for kindergarten. Pretty Sad.
I don't recommend this game.

Wow, I almost overlooked this goody! I found Zenerchi before it was cool and feel like I just found another M3 winner. Sound is top-notch, help is great, not the typical match 3 and takes thought and planning. I see there is freeplay as well as the original. Don't get scared by the timer, it's unobtrusive. The game in-between main sessions IS timed and you know it but it's generous. Excellent memory training for us oldsters. The game itself is outstanding. Try it! You'll have to try it because I don't think I can explain stacked wheels that you rotate to make matches. Oh! And there are bombs that are VERY satisfactory when they blow up.
I recommend this game!
Save your beloved, and the island of Elithium, from the dragon Melborn in this epic, innovative Match 3 experience!

The cursor movement is what holds this game back. Yes, it's a slider M3, but it cachunks, cachunks along to make any given move. Otherwise? Storyline good, graphics fine etc. I can see real possibilities in the grid movement and strategy but until the movement lag is fixed this is a one-star.
I don't recommend this game.
