there is a sequence in the game that might be construed as RACIST in some quarters of the world. Maybe I'm missing a key strategy, but I gave up in frustration on this level.īut overall, this is a great game, perhaps the best in the "match three" genre I've seen. It would be nice if there was a way to destroy walls. I made it to level 60 (Japan), and the level design seems impossible on this stage. The audio and music is effective and unobtrusive, and generally pleasing and relaxing. The artwork is phenomenal, with scenery that goes from day to night, weather effects, animations, particle effects, and so forth. The graphics are the best I've seen for this type of game. This is a phenomenal example of the "match-three" genre! Granted, it plays pretty much the same as other match-three games, like the "Jewel Quest" series, but the presentation is outstanding! But perhaps this will be the incarnation in which I'll get there! Well - I can always hope. The story is taken from a real book and so has a genuine storyline, although in some respects it differs from the original.Īlthough, as I mentioned, I've had this game on several different computers, I have never actually reached the end. The music is acceptable enough as this kind of music goes, although I usually turn it off anyway. The graphics, as ever, are attractive and clear.

This game is easier in that respect, at least to my own eyes. The method of playing Match 3 games is well-known, but some are more difficult because it can be hard to tell the difference between pieces if your eyes are a little past their best. I've had it on several computers down the years since I first met it, and now my current machine has been introduced to Mr Fogg and his companions. This is another gem from Playrix - once again it isn't brand new, but it's bright, colourful and very playable.
