Ancient Egypt is the other one I end up playing over a lot. Creating powerup matches seems especially fun in these for some reason.
And my recommended Jewel Match WW 2 is among my TOP 10 loved games. Stunningly beautiful scenes and separate pictures, wonderful M3 game play, a definite ++++
I recommend this game!

Doesn't hold up to Queen's Garden Sakura, but still fun

This is a cute, fun play M3. But no match to one of my top favorite M3 games = Queen's Garden Sakura. That is much more sophisticated than this, with wonderful ponds, trees, flowers, paths you can create with animated characters walking or sitting on benches, etc.
I recommend this game!
Cozy up to this festive hidden-object puzzler!

The H/Os - ONLY 1 SCENE, forces you to play that SAME SCENE 1st by Name, 2nd by Silouette, 3rd by PIECES - then the CE "bonus" does same exact thing. ONLY get 2 HO, 2 "spot difference", 2 jigsaws, and 2 "match 2 that do NOT MATCH any 2 except 2 next to each other - so GET NO COINS to "UPGRADE HOUSE" WORST RIP-OFF GAME EVER!
I don't recommend this game.

.. to how these games work. I really disliked most of them, finding them way too frustrating. But, either I got used to them, or they got better, THIS one is a Favorite.
I recommend this game!

after EVERY LEVEL. It was annoying enough for me (and others) to just stop playing altogether. I Really hope Suricate will develop a new M3 Game soon - I really LOVE THOSE
I don't recommend this game.

The HOs are nice and clear, cheery, Match the pictures nice, Jigsaws ok qk ck, even Spot Difference not bad,
BUT the PUZZLE “Connect the SAME pictures” does NOT WORK AT ALL any way I tried it. NOT a CHAIN, NOT click on separate. I'm hoping another reviewer can help me figure out how THAT part works.
I recommend this game!

I was so frustrated after buying almost all the earlier versions when I found out - ONLY AFTER TESTING 1st several levels before I bought - that they REGULARLY REQUIRED matching one or two icons very hard to even get to without making way too many multiple boring matches.
THIS ONE IS MUCH BETTER! Can be fast moving, but still needs maneuvering and thought to clear them all. GREAT HALLOWEEN ICONS
I recommend this game!

I LOVE Suricate's M3 games. And their previous Solitaire games have had some wonderful scenes. But THIS one so far has cardboard scenes not appealing. Their interim transition after each card hand is full screen of ugly cards annoying. And, the problem with ALL solitaires, theirs especially, is that, in 5 levels I have played, one level took 2 decks just to clear the 4 separate "only one card available to match" types in ONE hand. This is NOT fun to go through 20+ cards for EACH 'single match only' card.
It's really a shame because, even given the above, IF they had their usual beautiful scenes to complete - and less annoying transition between games, I probably still would have purchased this.
Story-driven time management fun in a land of wonder!

I really disliked almost ALL the previous versions of this. The icons were attractive and the first several levels WERE playable WITHOUT have ONE Icon that needed removing TAKE 20+ different tries to get.
I swore I would never buy another because it just wasn't fun. BUT, BF had discount and I DID test FIRST 4 levels, which were MUCH BETTER. I used logic to remove some - and that worked for a change!
Then I got to LEVEL 7. The SAME PROBLEM. ONLY ONE Goal TILE that needed clearing, but it was in a position where ONLY SIDE matches were available, hammer did not work on this, arrow down from top level did not work, rearranging icons did not work. So, ONCE AGAIN, it took me 30 TRIES to get that LAST ONE. THIS is NOT "FUN" and I'm really annoyed that I gave in and bought it.
I don't recommend this game.
