This is very slow & apparently an old game, going by the graphics. There is no choice so you can deep-six the hints & they are everywhere, long & dumb. Somehow, in my deep, dark past I purchased this game... Why, I'll never know.
I don't recommend this game.

Ok, I admit I don't like games that have "hurry up or you'll die-" themes. Prefer to take it at my own way & pace: relaxed. Really this is just another Pong-style game, so if you like those, go for it.
I don't recommend this game.

I'd say it was a completely dorky game, but that would be giving it too much credit. I agree with redsparrow on all accounts: truly ancient-tech game, instructions not clear at all & HOG's were impossible all around. Played for about 15 min, then tossed it with a thud.
I don't recommend this game.

At risk of repeating myself, I truly hate timed games! If devs would only put that fact into their descriptions, I could save myself a lot of time. Game is really fun & challenging even for me, a person who has dealt with words, speech & other language applications for my whole life. I just want to relax & play w/out timers & nagging little things/characters who hassle me to go faster. Please, devs, knock it off!
I don't recommend this game.

Love crosswords & hogs, but this one failed miserably to explain itself! A simple clue as to what to do would help, but no, all I got was this exceedingly annoying moth fluttering around. Yes, I know the basics of each type of game...who doesn't? But after one solution, it just stopped. Yuck!
I don't recommend this game.

I hate timed games; love to play at my own speed for relaxation. This is a different game that relies on quick matching, so not technically timed, but game ends if you don't move fast enough. Considered buying it, but after 30 min., decided not to for those reasons.
I don't recommend this game.

Ok, so only played thru most of trial, but think I may buy it. However, just when I was getting hooked on it, the game ended! It was really driving me crazy in a fun way, though. Maybe this one is just so player can compete for high scores against self. That's the only reason I docked it a star. Would have liked to keep playing.
I recommend this game!

Same as other blah match 3 games. While I like to play these just for the fun of it, there's no fun here, just match, match, match.
I don't recommend this game.

Love match 3's for mindless gaming. This one, however, simply did not make sense. Level after level, it seemed the basic match 3 rules changed or had some unknown variable that made it not just gradually more difficult, but even in the untimed mode, the pressure was on to do something (what?) before all heck broke loose. Played for half of free hour & dumped it.
I don't recommend this game.

Pictures are trite, lacking the artistic bent of any of the Earth Chronicles. Needed more imagination for me.
I don't recommend this game.
