Like others, I really wanted to like this one. Santa Claus and Christmas, what's not to like, right??? The music was anoying, the maneuverability was rediculous. I love games like Super Cow, Alex Gordon and Turtle Odysey and thought this would be like that. NOT! To jump you use the spacebar and to go left and right the arrows. That's it, no negotiating. Very "not user friendly" in my opinion. You cannot jump on the bad guys or you die immediately. That's it! I am so glad that I tried the demo, albeit for only 7 minutes before uninstalling this one. Big Fish, what were you thinking????????????????????

If you want a break from super challenging games, this one will do the trick. Reminded me alot of Mario, Crash and Sonic from days gone by. While fun, the "jabbering" penguin can get a bit obnoxious but I still had fun and loved this game. Great for kids, moms and dads. Good clean fun.
I have recently become a fan of M3 games and have also found that this type of M3 is most fun. You open up a path for Jane to follow through on the board. Along the way, you pick up machettes, vases of water, materials for bridges, etc. These are all used to get you from one board to the next in order to finish each level. I only played the demo however, I do intend to purchase this game and continue the fun. The challenge of moving Jane from one screen to the next is, for me, a little bonus on a M3 rather than just clearing screens and making matches. Adds a little more to it for me. The graphics and sound are above average and things move very smoothly through this game. I enjoyed it very much.
Okay, so I am now officially hooked on this one. I downloaded the free trial today and.....WOW!!! After leaving this review I am off to purchase it along with Season Match 2. The graphics, sounds and music are top notch. Unlike any other M3 game I have tried. I have played the timed and found it to be just the right amount of challenging. Not frustrating but not easy either. Well, I am off to play this one some more. Thanks BFG!!! :-)
I am not usually a M3 gamer, I like the hidden objects better but I thought I would give this one a try. I downloaded the free hour and I am so glad I did. The colors and graphics as well as the sound and music were all head and shoulders above others I have played! It was challenging yet not so much that it was frustrating. I really enjoyed this one.
I recommend this game!

I normally play hidden objects, however, this looked interesing so I downloaded the trial. I was hooked immediately and KNEW this was a keeper. The visuals, sounds, graphics are all superb. I agree with others that you should check out all tutorials for this one and then play. Could be frustrating otherwise. It is a simple concept but very challenging. Make sure to play the Zen level too. It is not timed but provides a different spin on the game with a twist to add difficulty. I purchased this about a month ago and I play at least once a day. I am enjoying it as much now or maybe even more, as the day I downloaded the trial. Even if you do not play M3, you will love this game! Wish there was a sequal!
