I love these Viking Brothers games and yes - they're easy and yes they're all pretty much the same but doesn't take away the enjoyment for me! Such a great change from all this doom and gloom and frankly lack of really fun games these days. Won't describe the game since game play hasn't changed but Loki's back devilish as ever, as are Odin and Hemidahl. Atlantis has risen and the brothers and Loki have to find fragments of artifacts that Loki hid here, there and everywhere.
So for a relaxing, easy and enjoyable game grab this one!

I normally turn my nose up at match 3 games but after reading the reviews and viewing the video thot I would take the plunge. Idea is to rebuild the village after it's destroyed by the evil sorcerer and each level you accumulate gold to build each dwelling; you accumulate gems whenever you build one which can be used to buy a power up. Music is pleasant and not intrusive to the game (which some is), no constant yakking going on and instructions are very clear.
My only gripe is that as you progress the buildings become more and more expensive to the point it seems forever before you can buy a building.
Nice game to wile away the hours and a bonus is no ugly faces and hideous monsters.
I recommend this game!

All this game is is Lauraville by another name tho I enjoy both formats. Not especially jumping up and down by having to get so many roses or bushes or rocks,what have you, to proceed. If you want something that's not a mind bender and just to play along for relaxation this is it. Not particularly a challenge, and I think the developers need to come up with a different kind of game play other than just doing a blue print between Larulaville and Spellarium.
So if you want something that doesn't have hideous faces and creepy crawlies this is it. Otherwise nothing new. Will recommend it for those like me who wish BFG would starting getting something fun in here.
I recommend this game!

Wish I had paid more attention to reviews and comments. I love a good solitaire game but this was boring and monotonous not to mention I hate the type of solitaire where you have to have a certain number of cards on each "group" or you have to go back and play some of the levels over before you can progress on in the game.
Complete waste of time and a free game coupon.
I don't recommend this game.
Using the artifact of life, the gods created wonderful gardens in Egyptian land. Use your match 3 skills to make the gardens thrive one again!

Normally not crazy about M3 but took a chance on this one with the sale and glad I did. Object is to rebuild an Egyptian garden for the Pharaoh. This is pretty much typical M3 with of course blockages like vines, etc but you seem to accumulate power-ups fast which help. I like the graphics and the items you can choose to create the garden - takes a bit to accumulate resources but doesn't diminish the game. Music is pleasant and doesn't interfere with game play.
Have to agree with one reviewer: When I first buy a game I choose untimed or casual mode until I get the feel of the game. If you spend too long on a level you lose a star which is annoying in a casual mode.
Otherwise thoroughly enjoying the game.
I recommend this game!

I love the Avalon games and was so excited to see this I bought it immediately and am not disappointed. It follows the same game play as previous with the addition of being able to buy "champions" which is another word for power ups to help you thru the game. Not quite as easy as the first two but love a challenge especially with a game I can't stop playing. Music is pleasant and doesn't interfere with game play (like some does), lovely graphics, wallpapers and just plain fun!
I recommend this game!

I loved the Mystika series and was glad to see this was put out by the same game developer with pretty much the same play format. This isn't a hard game - takes time to accumulate resources to rebuild structures - but love anything with islands so took the plunge without previewing the game first.
This to me this is a welcome relief from the usual mind bending games with constant back and forth, hideous faces and ugly monsters. If you want a game with a bit of a challenge, liked the Mystika series and overall relaxation this is it.
I recommend this game!

I loved the first two Lagoona and purchased this immediately and am so disappointed. Not too far into the game but dislike it - borrowed levels from other games such as Farmington Tales (assemble the key), jumbles of junk to make pairs, levels are the same screens from last Lagoona only switched around and the most annoying character from last game is brought back (Theo) who we have to wait forever to clear debris.
If they ever put out another one will wait for the reviews before purchasing.
I don't recommend this game.
It’s time to get ready for some summer-time fun for the whole family!

That being said - that's why I purchased this tho I'm not a mahjong fan because of the colorful and pretty tiles. Am 3/4 finished and really have no problem with it - a good game when you get tired of doom, gloom and more complicated "mind" games." Music is pleasant and not intrusive to the game play (which a lot is) and as stated something to switch to when you want an easy relaxing game.
I recommend this game!

Am thoroughly enjoying this game - certainly mental relaxation after complicated time management and hidden objects. Poor little witch fouled up the magic potion so has to gather resources and gems to put it all right. Tutorials are very helpful and you don't have to sit there wracking your brain wondering what to do next or having to buy a collector's edition to get a strategy guide.
My only complaint is that I don't like playing with a full screen and unfortunately even with clicking the button can't get it to go to windowed mode but that's a minor issue.
I recommend this game!
