Simple Match 3 4+

Great Match Three

Really glad I purchased this game. Lots of fun for the low price. My problem with most match 3 games are the gimmicks, ads, grinding, or pay-to-win that comes with most (if not all) of them. This dev made a super clean, super fun version with none of that. You make your way through boards, winning achievements to unlock different symbol/color tiles you can use as you please. Different obstacles like gaps, blocks, fans and blobs are presented along the way that you have to navigate or destroy. Power ups are available to help when stuck. Really like that you can use a turn to move even if the move doesn’t result in a match. I set an original goal to get three stars on a level before moving on, but had to abandon that around level 70 due to seemingly impossible score objectives. I now replay every level until getting at least two stars. I got stuck on level 138 for a couple days, but wasn’t the start of an inevitable wall where even the one star targets make boards completely unsolvable. Really solid mobile game. Some small fixes to suggest would be 1) that moving a match into a T shape should result in a power up 2) a few levels said I had a obstacles remaining when the board was clear 3) having left over moves should get you more extra points toward stars and 4) leftover power ups should auto execute after 0 moves left. Currently on level 233. Great mind exerciser and time killer. Great job dev. 10/10 would recommend.

Developer Response ,

Thanks so much for your detailed 5 star review! I’m glad you’re enjoying the game :) I will definitely take all of your feedback into consideration!

The 1.2 update that just released gives you slightly more points for left over moves, so hopefully that helps.

I was able to pass all levels with 2 stars, and 3 stars is supposed to be a challenge, but if there are any levels that seem impossible please email me at mulberrytreegames@gmail.com and I can consider adjusting some things!

2 big ones is a steal!

Wow this game is phenomenal! i prefer this over its contemporaries because rather than drip feeding you unlockables and forcing you to grind this game has a satisfying gameplay loop of rewarding you with plenty of new tiles as you complete simple objectives. i’m only 13 levels in and i already have a plethora of tiles to choose from! AND the art direction is adorable! i am very curious if the developer designed these herself! I love the gradual incorporation of new mechanics as you progress through each level, it keeps things fresh and challenging. the music is lovely too and there are separate toggles for SFX and music! my only criticism is i wish there was a greater variety of rainbow tiles and power ups on the actual board, maybe additional effects could occur when you combine rainbow tiles together rather then them chaining together? regardless, this app is brilliant and completely worth the $2! thank you for your hard work!!
