Ok this could have been a lot better.
First off it is very slow to respond and the graphics could be better. I found it very confusing where it would change from the normal sliding tiles then to finding a group of 3 or more tiles . click on one tile and all the others disappear as well. Nice to have a change but it then goes back to the normal sliding tiles and so on. Talk about mind confusion ( Mine anyway) I had difficulty understanding the accent but that may just be me. The instructions not very clear to see.
This has the potential to be a very good game just needed a bit more thought and seems hurriedly put together. Just my opinion and others may love it

I was excited when I saw this but have to say it does not have the features of the first game where you had to build a bridge etc to proceed in the game. Having said that I do like this game .I love the flip feature where you click on a piece to change it.Very different to other match 3 games and it adds some difference.
It is very similar to the first game but without the extras that the first game has. I would say to demo both games before you buy and decide for yourself.Had this improved and not gone the other way it would have been 5 stars

We are now on Episode 9, has it lost it's touch? Of course not.
Ok it's the same style but with a change of tiles and a few extras these games just get better and keep me as a total fan.. I played the demo and it was over so quick that I just had to continue. If only other games where like this one in providing enough change to keep us happy. A round of applause I think

First off I so loved the first game which incidentally came out in 2015. Almost 5 years later they bring out 2 and it is like playing the first game again and the dialogue goes on and on. After all this time they could have at least changed the tiles and added some different bonuses.
If you have not played 1 then this is a good game however there is not so much chat in the first one .
I really wanted to give this more but to me this is such a let down on something that could have been so much better

This series just gets better and better. Ok similar style to the previous but there is enough added to keep you happy, well me anyway. I know some are not fans of chain games but for me I love them just adds a bit more challenge. Its great to have a more challenging match 3 as there have been some which are just standard and too easy. This is up there with some of the best in my opinion. Some will like it some will not. Try the demo and make your mind up but for me its a winner
I recommend this game!

As soon as I saw this I did not bother with the demo I just bought it straight away although as a rule I recommend people to always demo first as although this is great for me it may not be for someone else as I am always saying we all have different tastes. This developer always comes up with new things, this time we have mechanisms and other differences along the way. The only down thing for me is the constant saying " Piece OF Cake" it just gets annoying after a while lol but I can put up with it.
I recommend this game!

Ok. this has the usual collect and build that you expect from a TM but there is so much added and each level has something else a bit different. It takes a bit of getting used to and the further you get in to it the more interesting it becomes, for me anyway. Some will say its too confusing but that is what makes it so interesting. Try the demo and see if it is to your taste
I recommend this game!

Well on the surface this seemed like it had the makings of a decent game but I wasted half an hour of my demo trying to work out how everything worked and got nowhere. As someone else said you are told to assign a worker as a lumberjack but I did not know how to do it. The tutorial is very confusing. There are no prompts in the early stages as there are with other games so you are basically left on your own
I don't recommend this game.

After giving just 2 stars for the CE I now find myself giving 5 stars for this one which is the same game without all the thrills. Why you may ask. Well There are no annoying blue arrows in this game and I just could not enjoy the other game with that going on. It now feels so different despite being the same. I will now buy this. You still need to find the puzzle pieces so for those who were put off by the blue arrows (reminds me of the blue meanies from Yellow Submarine) I think you will enjoy this
I recommend this game!

I found this game very challenging and loved all the puzzles. A bit baffled by some reviews which states the game is too short. Maybe they mean the Demo as I found it very long and enjoyable. It is in 5 parts and you could easily think that the game has ended but then you move to the next chapter so maybe that is it? I liked that the hint just told you to go and look here or there and did not sparkle where the next object was which most hints do. It made me think. I do not like Hogs but persevered with them as the rest of the game is so good. At the end of the day we all have different tastes and some will not like this and some will as these reviews show. I for one thoroughly enjoyed it
I recommend this game!
