So looking forward to a new match 3 game. This isn't it. No clear directions, slow moving, not fun at all. Wish they had some where you work to a goal i.e. building things. Not a buy for me.
I don't recommend this game.

I also Beta tested this game and "Sassylassie" said it all. Seems as if I've been waiting forever and ever for this game to come up for sale. Thanks to the game makers and Big Fish for bringing it to us.
I recommend this game!

I would have given it an excellent rating all the way through except for the problems with the lever and bird. I like to play without having to follow the "Strategy Guide" which if you didn't once you started the jungle scene you ran into the problems mentioned above.
I recommend this game!

I almost passed this up until I saw Joe's face. I have played all of the "scapes" and am a big fan. Playrix rocks. A new brother was introduced by the name of Jim. Does this mean that the developers are going to make more of the same fun? Sure hope so.
I recommend this game!

Big Tea to the rescue. Anytime I find a game from Big Tea I automatically buy it. They are the best for creating anything you want to see in a game.
I recommend this game!

I hope they either have a better hint system on what you need to do next or a walkthrough for the next one. This was the most frustrating game I have ever played. Couldn't enjoy the story as I was tying to figure out what to do next or where to go so I could move forward. I toughed it out as I always finish what I start if it is interesting enough. Sad to say I wish it hadn't been interesting so I could have trashed it.
I don't recommend this game.
