If you liked playing 'Angkor' you will enjoy this match 3. The funny sounds (like hitting pans with a spoon) still make me smile. I like the choice at the start of each game,as to whether to play timed or not ,is nice to have.

How can you go wrong for 3 bucks of fun !?
I bought it!

I gave this game a four instead of a five due to the lack of power-ups. There sure could have been more than two. Also it would have been better if there was something more than just one match three after another. Maybe a bit of hidden object at each new site?

I recommend this game!

I liked the sci-fi theme when activating bonuses and the Halloween Tile themes with bats, witches hats, spiders and of course, pumpkins. I liked that you can choose between a Timed or Untimed Mode before the start of each level and that you can make fast back-to-back consecutive matches, but that was about all I liked about Halloween Trouble.

I liked the sci-fi theme when activating bonuses and the Halloween Tile themes with bats, witches hats, spiders and of course, pumpkins. I liked that you can choose between a Timed or Untimed Mode before the start of each level and that you can make fast back-to-back consecutive matches, but that was about all I liked about Halloween Trouble.

The instructions are vague and when the pop-up window appears to explain what a particular Bonus does, it disappears to fast to find out why you got it or how it works if you are in the zone and happen to click a match. The explanation for the refillable Hammer and Shuffle features, however, are constantly popping up and interrupting gameplay and are super annoying.

Although I liked the tiles themselves, they are difficult to see at times because the board layouts have black backgrounds and the tiles themselves are black or grey. Large Match opportunities are slim and I was forced to use the shuffle feature several times for lack of matching possibilities. Making fast, consecutive matches is a feature I insist on when playing a Match 3 game, but it defeats the purpose when you have to wait for the computer to finish playing through before the score pops up, then you are taken to the map scene, then you have to click play, then you have to see the explanation for the Hammer and the Shuffle, etc.

There are 14 Achievements available and there are the usual goals of making matches over gold cells or twice over blue cells as well as making matches of specific tiles or dropping items off the board. It also has the usual obstacles such as breaking stone walls, etc.

This is the kind of game you'll just have to play yourself to see if it rocks your Halloween world, but for me, the cons outweigh the pros and it just wasn't fun. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

Based on completed demo only

This M3 has so many things wrong with it that I'm not sure where to begin. It had such potential. A lot of the things I point out can actually be seen in the intro video for this game on the game's page.

What I didn't like:
~ Way too many words interrupt gameplay, such as "excellent" & "nice",
~Every single level you need to choose "limited" & "unlimited" ...Show more

This M3 has so many things wrong with it that I'm not sure where to begin. It had such potential. A lot of the things I point out can actually be seen in the intro video for this game on the game's page.

What I didn't like:
~ Way too many words interrupt gameplay, such as "excellent" & "nice",
~Every single level you need to choose "limited" & "unlimited" moves. It should be in the options menu to check once.
~ I couldn't figure out what one of the icons even was. I thought it was a bird or mouse but turns out it is a group of nails I assume (?). There are witches hats, green gloves, a tree branch, 3 blue candles (I think). One of the icons is a tick. Ticks are gross creatures and not sure why anyone would want to match them. lol
~ In the menu/map screen there isn't much guidance as to what level you are playing.
~ During gameplay, the M3 board isn't labeled with what level you are currently playing and you can't even hit the "menu/options" button during a level to adjust the music, etc.

~ My biggest problem with the game is there is no reason for matching (at least not in the demo). I just prefer M3's that have you build things. For me, it's a huge bonus if the game lets you save the completed screen you built as wallpaper or a screensaver like in the Fishdom series.
~ The M3 playing board area is way too small for the size of a computer screen making me think the game was designed for a tablet or cell phone. This makes the icons a bit too small to fast match easily.
~ You have to wait at the end of each level for your points to compile and watch as the game plays itself with explosions etc.

What I liked:
~ I actually really liked the old style computer gen. graphics. They are clear and the background scenes are nice.
~ The music was appropriate and fit the game. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I only played 10 minutes of the demo before I decided this game is not for me.
First, I always turn off all sound (except voiceovers, which this game did not have). But I still heard clicks and other SFX sounds. Second, you could not select a timed or untimed method of play as part of the options; you had to select it for every single grid. This, IMHO, shows a very poor game design.

Third, there was no explanation of what needs to be done in order to obtain all 3 stars. I played one grid twice and could not get 3 stars, yet I could not see what I was doing wrong that kept me from getting that third star.
With these kinds of design flaws, I don't need to waste my time or money on a game like this. There are a lot of other, much better games out there. Show less

I don't recommend this game.
