This is a fun and easy to play game. But by "easy to play", I don't mean it is an easy game. While it may start off with basic Match 3 principles, it quickly progresses to more challenging levels.
As you progress through the story, following the Path to the West, you ascend a mountain and not only do the jars and marbles start to change, but you run into weather changes as well. The colder it gets, #snow in the mountains# the more likely you are to get things like locked or frozen marbles.
There are a variety of Powerups to use that will help when you get stuck somewhere, or to unlock or thaw marbles, such as the Powerwheel, Cherry Bombs or Lightning, or more time.
The art is top notch, everything looks great. The music is very asian and peacefull, one might even say, zen-like. The sounds in general match the game play very well.
Overall this is a game I can see myself, and my kids, and my wife, playing a lot of. In fact, all of us are quite addicted to the game already, after only a short introduction...
I recommend this game!
