I have been playing Big Fish Games for years and I love match three games. This one, however, even though it sounds like a lot of fun, I was unable to figure it out. The instructions were no help either. Too bad. I looked like one I would have enjoyed.
As soon as I saw this was a Playrix game I knew I would like it. It reminds me of 'Around the World in 80 Days'. There are 8 countries with 8 time periods. An artifact for each country has been destroyed and the player must restore the artifact. The play level becomes more difficult as you progress. There are 90 levels. The graphics are good and the music is very nice.There is also some information about the country's time period as an introduction to the level. I learned something new listening to that. ! I would recommend this game.
Last year I bought Tricks & Treats. I tried Spooky Bonus and it appears to be on a similar track. You play match 3 games and win decorations for your house. Just an all-round fun game. I recommend it for those who love Halloween games as much as I do.
I recommend this game!

Love it. I bought this game after only 20 minutes of play. I should have known since it is a 'Play Rix' game that it would be good. You have to restore seven Greek gods to their glory by retrieving their ancient items. You do this by completing a series of match 3 games and then puzzling the final artifax together. Each god has a story about them and Hercules to follow along while playing their match 3 games. I thought the graphics could have been a little sharper but the story line was great. All around fun.
I love this game. I actually love all the Play Rix games. Gardenscapes 2 brings Austin to his parent's house where their garden needs a makeover. This game follows along with Gardenscapes with plenty of hidden objects to sell at the yard sale but with a twist in that along with them you have to make some repairs to the house. The hidden coins are back which adds to the fun. The only thing I think could make it better is I didn't see an option for making it a timed game. So happy they came out with this game! Next we need another Mansion Makeover.
"Echoes of the Past" and the "Heroes" series are the only games I buy without trying them out first. As soon as they become available I jump at the chance to buy them and they are never disappointing. This game is a lot of fun. Great variety of puzzles that are not too difficult, Hidden object scenes that are clear and the objects are not too small to see nor too hidden to find as in some games. Great story line and music. You will enjoy this game!!!
