1) I really dislike ANY game like this that punishes you if you make specific wrong moves by forcing you to start over. I play for fun, and enough challenges to be interesting, NOT to have to start a level over if you get it wrong;
2) This developer does NOT have powerups you can purchase through a store. So if you are stuck needing ONE MORE COIN, you have to keep matching until you get close, or get rockets, etc. powerups by finding match combinations to create them on the board. Frequently that is too repetetive and very time-consuming;
3) They REMOVED MY FAVORITE SOLITAIRE MINI-GAMES! I WOULD LOVE to BUY A SEPARATE 'SOLITAIRE ONLY' game of these types as this developer makes GREAT ones that allow you to actually win by thinking, instead of having to drudge through sometimes 20-30 deck cards just to make one play as most do. THIS developer's Solitaire has a BLANK SPACE CARD area where you can move board cards back and forth to actually manipulate the board.

Given all of the above, I should add that I really disliked ALL their series AT FIRST. But after I took time to learn more by trial (or help), they did grow on me and become much more appealing.
I don't recommend this game.
Neverland Treasure is a superb match-3 puzzle game with popular characters from Peter Pan!

Too bad as cute graphics and fun game play.... UNTIL later levels had way too many SPIDERS and WITCHES that keep DUPLICATING, along with level goals needed 210 of 1 ITEM to remove, having 3 SCREENS, EACH WITH SPIDERS! WAY TOO repetitive and annoying to keep buying powerups to delete them before they take over entire board!!

Please note: I LOVE Suricate's MATCH 3 games, some among my favorite! But in THIS SOLITAIRE one, the game play frequently has so many locked or unavailable cards on the board to play that it takes 20+ deck cards to go through just to match ONE of them. Then needs repeat. This is not fun. And in this one, there are SO FEW LONG STRINGS available that it takes way too many levels (or repeating the same boring levels) to be able to buy more powerups. Even with those, there is no skill in winning. With 2 decks to have to go through as you continue to not be able to make matches, it just increases the frustration. IF Suricate could add BLANK CARD SPACE available to be able to move some cards in and out of (like the Spellarium, etc. series has), THAT gives much more skill and fun in playing solitaire.
I don't recommend this game.

My TOP 10 FAVORITE Match 3 games are from Developer Suricate and THIS developer Green Sauce (Hope's Farm is my TOP #1, Secrets of Magic Series right with that), and this one adds to those. My computer is several years old, has 64 bit, and this game works just fine so far. Great tutorial, fantastic 3D graphics on scenes, fun match 3 game play with large, clear tiles, and one of very few that I actually read the story lines. There have been SO FEW Good MATCH 3 games on Big Fish for so many months now that I almost give up on hoping for the good ones. HERE IS ONE OF THOSE - THANK YOU GREEN SAUCE!
I recommend this game!

They keep just changing the appearance of the tiles and CONTINUALLY resubmitting AS IF THEY WERE BRAND NEW GAMES! If you've bought ANY of these, you've bought this one.
I don't recommend this game.

It's really annoying to have to WAIT 90 SECONDS to 'SKIP' those really poor, time-consuming bonus games, instead of just being able to "SKIP ALL' or INSTANTLY 'go to next level.' The jigsaw puzzles are numerous and just fair or too tiny detailed, and some of the hidden objects are not even recognizable if the hint arrow shows you.
I don't recommend this game.

I always buy ANYTHING from this Developer. Out of hundreds of Big Fish Games I've bought or played, the only other developer whose games are a GUARANTEED BUY for me is GREEN SAUCE. Their HOPE'S FARM IS MY TOP FAVORITE OF ALL.
With this game, SURICATE always put a lot of thought and time into creating complex Match 3s with gorgeous scenes you build as you win levels - SO MUCH BETTER THAN MOST Match 3s that have been AVAILABLE IN A LONG TIME here.
Nice tutorial, which I needed even though I have played all their other Match 3 games. Several things different that I do not like so far early on: 1) cannot move row/column clearing powerups 1 space up/down or sideways before activating like previous games allows which lessens your ability to complete each level using powerups; 2) hammer does NOT break gold inside sphere, and a few other minor annoyances. But I have only finished a few levels, so perhaps I'm missing something.
I recommend this game!

3 Rounds per level, with GOALS for EACH level, several board powerups - more can buy - with cute cards make this a fun, challenging different solitaire game. I'm finding GREEN SAUCE GAMES very appealing and hope they continue to provide the great games of theirs I've played.
I recommend this game!

Great Fun! Match 3 games have nice, large, clean, cute icons, Adding goals of feeding animals, creating and gathering vegetables and fruit trees makes it even more interesting - and very relaxing- fun. PLEASE GIVE US MORE OF THESE TYPE!
I recommend this game!

Nice clean large cards, BUT SO FEW ON DECK that the FREQUENTLY HALF BOARD CARDS BLOCKED make it ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE to WIN LEVEL, EVEN WITH POWERUPS AND 4 RE-TRIES. EVEN WORSE, YOU CANNOT CONTINUE to PLAY NEW AREAS UNLESS YOU WIN apparently ALL, or ALMOST ALL of EVERY PREVIOUS LEVEL! So, even at Level 90, unable to continue. That, along with poor, child-like scenes have to take time to build, DOWNGRADES this from an "A" to an "F". What a shame!
I don't recommend this game.
