This game has no timer but keeps you busy building buildings and harvesting resources and it uses portals to jump around and magic to open doors. It keeps you really busy with the mechanics of the game but it has some fun also. I liked it but you might want to play the free hour to decide for yourself. I probably will not play it a second time.
This game can be played without a timer and is a fun, if busy, game. Each level has lots of things to do and as the game progresses, you have more tasks and more workers to control. It can be a bit frantic.
A fairly difficult match 3 with no timer or move counter, if you select that choice. This is the kind of game one can play a little bit here and a little bit there, as there is no real continuity -- each level is its own. The most annoying feature is playing a contest against the computer when you know that winning or losing is decided by the computer and not by your skill.
If you liked the Dracula series, you will see familiar content here. The Queen is not likable, but the game plays well and has no timer. After a bit of a slow start, I decided to like it. The jokes are weak and repetitive. but so what.
I am undecided whether this is a 4 or 5 star. The first time I played it, I liked it but some levels were not what I liked. The second time I played it, I decided that I liked it far better. I think the writers made an effort to make it work and to make it slightly different level from level. Some of the levels have a bit of a 'trick' but they aren't too hard to figure out.

This is a very long game, and an intense one. The first time I played it, loosely keeping track of time, it took about 24 hours to finish it. At one point I got myself into such a state that I could do nothing until I figured out a strategy to proceed. That cost me nearly an hour of thinking and searching. My second run through was closer to 18 hours since I already knew the drill. This game would probably be too intense for casual players but, in my own opinion, it follows the first two and is better than either. I must place it among the top five ever, at least for me.
When starting this M3 game one is asked whether the game should be timed and then whether to make it hard or easy. Wonderful. They listened to what people wanted. An untimed game has no indication of time passing and no penalties. I played all 100 levels without using a power up from the list where you have to buy them, because I thought I might need them at the end. Some levels in the last 30 or so are long and a bit hard, but nothing impossible and the fun is never destroyed with stupid tricks from the authors. I wish other companies were this intelligent because my last two purchases were wasted on bad games and unpublished reviews.
On the surface, this is a really dumb game, but somehow it is loads of fun to play. I did not want to quit playing it. The nursery rhyme theme is silly and yet funny, all at once. Try it.
Another in the Moai series with the familiar operations and tricks and with fewer of the problems or things to defeat. I found this to be as good as or better than the predecessors. I think that this is the enjoyable, fun, type of game with a backstory which is a bit better than many. This is a good game to play for relaxation.
