Penny is going on her first date with Harry! Yes, I know many Mosaic fans are tired of this series after 31 games, but I'm still a fan of the Penguin family, and I'm still a fan of the series.

Penny is going on her first date with Harry! Yes, I know many Mosaic fans are tired of this series after 31 games, but I'm still a fan of the Penguin family, and I'm still a fan of the series. I know they are always based upon logic, the pictures are always recognizable and labeled, the colors are always vibrant, and most of all, I know I'm always going to enjoy solving them. (not to mention that they are always released on Bonus Punch Mondays!)
Once again, you can select the tile style from 5 different tile sets, ranging in color vibrancy and styles. The Locked Colors have also returned requiring you to uncover keys that are hidden under cells that are filled in, each key found unlocks the next color. The Eye feature has returned as well, which allows you to hide the grid to get a look at the puzzle without all the lines, and they have added a reset icon too. You can play in a Casual mode which crosses off the tiles one by one, or Advanced mode which only crosses off tiles when the entire row or column has been filled in.
Fantasy Mosaics 1-4 only offered monochrome, single colored puzzles, in FM 16 additional colors were added to the standard six colors we see today, and really with the exception of adding the Stars for not using Hints, Locked colors, tile choices and an Eye feature that allows you to remove the grid-lines within the last few games, I will admit that they are a bit slow to give FM fans new options.
You can earn a Gold trophy if you make no mistakes, a Silver trophy if you make one mistake and a Bronze trophy if you make two mistakes. You will also earn up to three gold Stars if you don't use any hints, one star is deducted each time you use a hint. Therefore, it is possible to make a mistake or two but still earn 3 stars as long as you don't use any available hints. Unlike some mosaic games, FM is based upon logic and are solvable without using hints or power-ups, if you're patient.
Mosaic Griddlers may seem overwhelmingly complicated at first glance if you're new to this genre, but don't be intimidated. After a few levels, you'll get the hang of it (but I would suggest starting with an earlier version (#16 offers 6 colors and is a great place to start) There are groups of numbers located on each column and row of the grid, each group of numbers must be separated by at least one blank or crossed off cell. Sometimes it's easier to figure out where numbers can't possibly fit to reduce the number of cells and narrow the playing field down a bit.
Some cells contain bonuses such as extra hints, extra mistakes allowed or an extra pickax which allows you to choose which cell you want a hint on. There is a Sun icon as well that when fully charged, will give you a mega-hint, filling in or crossing off a 3x3 area of your choice.
I won't deny that I'd love to see Match Gems add a few new features once in a while, but obviously, they aren't having any issues selling these games if they've made it to 31 games in a series! Sometimes you just need to stick with what works, until it doesn't, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Whenever I see a new Fantasy Mosaics I am always happy, particularly on a bonus punch day since I can use one of those bonus punches I accumulate for free games. I know that all of the Fantasy Mosaic games are much the same BUT the colors are wonderful and the grids are large. Although there are some other mosaic games that are excellent (and I grab then when they are offered) I still love the little penguin family.
I haven’t had a chance to go through all of the boards, but as far as I can tell the power–ups are the same; offering the hammer and the sun. That being said, the thing I most appreciate is that the individual squares are clear and large enough for me to see without having to squint and try to determine where an available square might be located. It might not be a big deal for some younger players but once we hit a certain age, our vision might not be as clear and it is totally appreciated by this reviewer that the squares are a bit larger. Something else to enjoy with this game is that it doesn't begin with a simple board. I had to put on my thinking cap when trying to place those early tiles.
For me Fantasy Mosaics 31: First Date is a wonderful Monday morning surprise. I’m having a great time going on this first date with Harry and Penny as they romp through the various screens. Although the game was an instant buy for me, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy. Happy gaming! Show less

This game follows in the tradition of all the other games in the Fantasy Mosaics series. The graphics are beautiful and the game play is challenging and relaxing at the same time. I have purchased every game in the series and will continue to purchase each one as it is released. I highly recommend this game and series.

I do like playing these games but yes I do wish a change would be done. I haven't used a hint since game #5 much less a sun or axe but today I actually used the axe. I was hoping that meant the games were getting harder but no that was not the case.
I do think the Garden part is better as the items actually seem to fit the theme better. The colors seem to be better as well.

Also for those who didn't know go to Options and you can unlock the colors. I see several voiced complaints about not being able to start with all colors. I used a coupon for the game which is the only way I would have purchased. Show less

I have bought almost all of these. They used to be challenging but have become ho~hum as each new game comes out. If they would add something along the line of rewards where you can build your world or buy decorations, that would make it more interesting I think. I will play the hour and that's it. No more purchases of these games for me.
I don't recommend this game.
