I love this game. I'm playing it for the second time. I wish there were more information (like what double bonuses means) but the graphics are great, it's got a playful storyline, it's not too difficult, etc. I recommend it to everyone!
I recommend this game!

I like the side scrolling arcade games (such as Sky Taxi, Supercow and Turtle Odyssey) where you run and jump and find hidden areas and take on bad guys. This one, however, is horrible. I first jumped on the first bad guy on purpose to see if that would "kill" him but that ended the game. Then I tried to to avoid him and twice in a row didn't succeed. You have only the one life you can't double jump so my game ended all three times in about 20 seconds. What the heck is the point? Yuck!
I don't recommend this game.

I often like simple games with multiple options (switch, chain, group) so I wasn't disappointed with that. I agree with someone who said that sometimes it's difficult to distinguish the items in the cells, especially when there were two different blue ones that looked a lot alike. FloridaGirl7264 said:
"I am annoyed that I can't make swaps with the animal power ups. You have to make swaps beneath them in order to move them down the board. Other than that, I enjoyed the game and will be purchasing it."
I agree with her. On week 1, level 10, I got into a situation in which the level was not solvable because you can't swap the animal power ups. I had to go back to the previous level so this level would be "reset" in order to beat it.
I found the music annoying; I eventually turned my speakers off.
But still it's a cute game that I probably will buy.
I recommend this game!

I thought the graphics, music and storyline were very good. However, I didn't understand what the devices were and how they worked and the bonus levels were too hard. With a little more instruction the game would have been a lot better.
I don't recommend this game.

I generally love M3 games. However, in this one the masks were too similar and by the time I've looked around for what mask to move, the game has always recommended a move even though I'm playing in relaxed mode. I couldn't figure out what things did. I got a spray bottle, for instance, and didn't know what it did. There was a mask that was highlighted off the the left side of the board and I didn't know what it did either. Normally when you put the cursor over something you are given additional information about what things do. Alternatively, in the help it tells you what the power things (like the spray bottle and the highlighted mask) do. Not in this game. I also found the movement of the remaining squares after making a match was confusing and not as I would have predicted from other M3 games.
So, I don't know the level of challenge because I couldn't figure the game out and I didn't get far enough to figure out the storyline. At least the game did have a relaxed mode.
I don't recommend this game.

The music is very peaceful. I liked that there were four different types of match 3 action. Sometimes I like a game that that is not overly challenging. The only problem is it got boring the longer I played it and I was glad when I had finished it. Still, I might play it again just for the music.
I recommend this game!
