This is my all time favourite way to play Match 3. If you like Match 3 and kind of like to have a bit of a battle as well, then this is for you. You build and upgrade your buildings to provide you with spells, archers and druids etc. to help with your battles and you can keep playing any completed battle scene to boost necessary requirements to upgrade.
The enemy attacks your fort and wherever you make your match on the board is where the missiles exit the wall. A match of 4 going down will wipe out more enemies as it covers 4 parts of the wall. A match of 4 going across will send out a stronger missile but will only affect the enemy attacking at that one part of the wall. The match 3 board gives out power ups which can either be resources or wall repair.
As this is my particular favourite way to play match 3 I can't 'sell' this game enough, but it won't suit everyone. You do need to take notice at the very start of the notices that appear and the policies you make at the end of each battle can affect the game play as well
I recommend this game!

Sorry, but I must add my name to those who do not recommend this game. I actually don't mind simple, non elaborate graphics as long as the game play is there, but unfortunately there is nothing to hold my interest or make me want to get to the next level in Fruits Inc.2. I gave it a fair go but didn't play out the one hour trial.
I don't recommend this game.

There is an untimed mode but you won't find the option in the normal settings window. You have to click on the icon bottom far left. However after selecting this method of playing I went to the first level and noticed that the timer bar was down the side. I checked my settings and it said untimed. But the bar was still there on the second level so when it hadn't gone away by the third I deliberately let the time run out. Sure enough I was told I had to restart.
I will probably play the remaining time on the demo but won't be buying.

Right, I bought this game simply because of the offer. When my trial ran out I had wasted 10 minutes searching the screen for an oasis to start my settlement and speed is something the little characters know nothing about. My reason for buying was because I did see some potential. I would say this is a game for the experienced 'builder', a player who knows where to look to recruit workers. It's difficult to know whether or not to recommend this game. It really is up to the individual, so I would say, give it a try. I do like the atmospheric sounds which remind me of the old Nintendo game Populous, but game play is completely different.

I was really hoping I would like this game and when I first started playing I thought I wouldn't be disappointed, however I have reached about 4th or 5th level and already the cost of upgrades or new equipment is more than I'm earning. You can earn up to 3 stars a level and buy equipment using those stars. I'm working as fast as the character's speed will allow but unfortunately I'm still just about making it to 1 star. I've lost the motivation to play the rest of the trial and won't be buying. I personally am not recommending this game, however there may be many who it may appeal to.
I don't recommend this game.

I knew I would buy this game two minutes into the demo. You can now queue the tasks so no more waiting for your little men to get back to house before sending them out again. Yes, the islands do move slightly which I particularly didn't like however there is the option to switch off the 'sliding'.
Keeping fingers crossed that it will soon be available for the tablet like the other three.
I recommend this game!

I tried my best to like this game, but sorry, despite the fact that this is the genre of game I play, this one did nothing for me. I didn't like having to select a building twice to collect [once to send the worker out, then another to send coins/products to inventory] and I am so accustomed now to being able to queue tasks and didn't like that I couldn't do it with this one.
I know a lot of people now like to be able to queue tasks so for that alone I don't recommend this game to them.
I don't recommend this game.

I really didn't think I would like this game, but it didn't take long to get hooked. Yes, it is very playable without spending a penny however I have spent a small amount so far. With the coins I bought I was able to purchase so many hours of unlimited energy which opened the game up even more for me.
You are not pestered to spend and I find the game very game player friendly.
Only one thing I would ask of the developers is to provide achievements for all crops and products, not just the few they have now. The game Dorfleben on FB has really perfected achievements.
I recommend this game!

Before trying this game I did take note of the negative reviews, but thought I would see for myself. I have to agree with them. I also love this genre of game and like a challenge, but the timing on the levels is quite tight and you cannot queue the tasks. What a shame the developers have not moved with the times with this aspect of the game. The tasks you have complete are not visible, you have to click an icon to check.
I also don't like having to replay levels to progress. I got to my first replay then hit the exit button. Not for me I'm afraid.
I don't recommend this game.

I've played half an hour of the trial and will be buying. Only issue I have with the game is that there is no indication of who ordered what so I have to keep clicking on the customers. Little icons above their heads once you've taken the order would have been more helpful.
I recommend this game!
