Laruaville is a pleasant Match 3 without any remarkable activities. Be aware that most of the puzzles are Mahjong based with a few HOGs (which may be skipped.)
I recommend this game!

Let me echo the sentiments of other 5 star reviewers of Final Cut: Encore.
What I will add is this: watch the credits! They are "hysterically" funny. (Uh... maybe the projector wasn't completely destroyed!)
Enjoy!!!
I recommend this game!

I rarely rave about anything in online reviews since most people do that anyway which doesn't really give one a good idea about the real benefit of something but this game... WOW!
The graphics, storyline, narrative, and flow are superb. I generally don't play Hidden Object games, but this one was exceptional since the objects weren't overly cluttered, obtuse, obscured, and overused. The puzzles were challenging (admittedly I had to get help to solve one of them) but in general readily solvable.
Hint: frequently reference the map (room/grounds layout) during your exploration. The map is part of the your diary.

The story line is very informative, the graphics are well done, and the power ups are good.
About 20 percent of the game is Hidden Object which is not something I like at all, so beware.
Also be sure to search for Match 4 combinations often, since the Amulet of Hercules is critical to success in the game. Use the other power ups sparingly.

Only played the Trial since the game was very repetitive, the only changes were the power ups which weren't cumulative and under no one's control. Same old, same old.
I should mention that I'm not a fan of marble shooters, but was able to complete the levels rather easily.

Generally, I enjoyed this basic, rather simple, Match 3 during the Trial Period BUT it had a very very very very irritating feature.
If you're like me, you strategize what areas of the board should be completed first, then methodically go about your business, albeit sometimes you do match other areas for various reasons especially for bonuses and power ups. BUT this game randomly through the level undoes what you have done here and there and around each square! Just when you think you have uncovered that last tile - nope - somewhere a tile has been covered again.
Grrrr!!! Me no like at all!!!!!

There are several irritations to be experienced playing this game but those could be forgiven if one could play without a timer. I was only on level 2! and couldn't complete a second round which resulted in END OF GAME! Boring!!
The game play is very confusing since matching can take place in any three combination (versus horizontal and vertical only.) Also matches took place that shouldn't have by my understanding of the matches.
Suffice it to say I never got beyond the 60 minute period so no money lost. Whew!

What can I say except "2nd Best Match 3 Ever!" (The best is the first 4 Elements.) Every thing about the game is what I want from this type of game. One little item is the scrolling of the screen: it should really be movable. So be aware of where you are and where you're going (you'll get what I mean after you've played for awhile.) It's not quite as challenging as the first version but that's probably because I knew what to do this time. :-)
