[review based upon completed game]
Pros: Untimed [see details], unique powerups, good storyline, can make moves constantly
Cons: Game interface details may take some getting used to, game glitch [developer is aware/working on patch as of this writing], needs a lot of RAM to run well
It's been a long time since I've been pulled into a game so much that I stay up until all hours playing it and wake up a few hours later wanting to play some more! 150 levels, 4 different board types [clear all tiles, clear all tiles with limited moves, make X number of matches, and move keys to a lock]. Lots of powerups and trophies which are more than just the usual things seen in M3s. Enjoyed the storyline too, which was well written throughout except for a few spelling errors near the very end; it also seemed unfinished.
The game is not timed although there is a stars meter which you will win up to 3 stars if you solve the level quickly enough [in limited moves boards, few enough moves]. The "time trial" boards do have a timer running for making the X number of matches, but that number is just for winning 3 stars. The only ways you can actually lose are by either running out of moves on a limited moves board or getting the board where there are no available matches left and no powerups to bail you out.
Although there are a lot of powerups, it is *not* a blow-lots-of-stuff-up mindless game. You really have to strategize to do well in most cases and even though it's untimed, it gets pretty hard!
The game interface is a bit...interesting. May take a bit before you can figure it all out. It also uses 2-4 times as much RAM as other current M3s I've seen, so would definitely recommend demoing it first to make sure it runs on your computer. There is a glitch in the game which the developer is aware of and is working on a fix as of the date of this review. See the game forum for workarounds in the meantime. If you love strategy in your games and want something that's not just your run-of-the-mill M3, highly recommended! Show less
I recommend this game!

Antique Shop Lost Gems Egypt is a very interesting match-3 game. One of the unique things about the game is that the power-ups and tools you can purchase as you acquire gems. The tools allow for some very interesting game mechanics that add a new dimension to playing the match-3 boards.

Antique Shop Lost Gems Egypt is a very interesting match-3 game. One of the unique things about the game is that the power-ups and tools you can purchase as you acquire gems. The tools allow for some very interesting game mechanics that add a new dimension to playing the match-3 boards.
There is a backstory that you learn as you complete each level in the game. Your cousin Emily has gone missing and your search to find her takes you to some very interesting locations. There are some nice background graphics but I found the one in the demo to be very washed out and rather misty in appearance. For me the game becomes excellent with the new style of game mechanics that create a wonderful challenge.
There are so many match-3 games on the market that I have become rather bored with them in general but every so often a game comes along that raises the bar. If you are looking for something different with a bit more challenge than is normally present in a match-3 game, then I recommend that you try the demo because Antique Shop Lost Gems Egypt is a terrific game.

It took a little getting used to, because of the tools. I love match three, so I stuck with it. I am really enjoying it now.

Based on a finished game.
Best match-3 I ever played.
Lots of new innovations, or at least have not seen them in other match-3 games.
Very entertaining and sometimes very challinging.
Only the storyline didn't make much sense to me and was hard to follow or understand.
I recommend this game!

Just finished this game after months of patient toiling !!! The only fault it has,in my opinion, is the lack of explanation on how to play !! After the initial technical errors it proved to be a great game. You'll need to be fast or have endless patience . Looking forward to the next one from Kool Haus !!
I recommend this game!
