Those crazy penguins sure know how to have a good time, even when they are alone and lost in the woods. Harry has just discovered an Inventor's Workshop in the middle of nowhere, but he's also discovered a few new surprises, Fantasy Mosaic surprise features! Open the doors of the interactive House, relax and join Harry on his latest quest solving puzzles and Griddlers, Fantasy Mosaic style!

The colors are even more vibrant than before, and as always, the finished pictures you create are always recognizable and always labeled. The grids are always easy on the eyes, and above all, they are always solvable using Logic, unlike so many other Guesser Griddlers.

You can choose from 5 different tile sets, ranging in color vibrancy and styles. Locked Colors can be disabled in the Settings menu, otherwise, some of the colors are locked and unavailable until you uncover color specific keys that are hidden beneath some of the filled-in cells The Eye feature allows you to hide the grid to get a look at the puzzle without all the grid lines, and there is a reset icon that allows restarting the level easier.

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. 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.

Mosaic Griddlers may seem overwhelmingly complicated at first glance if you've never played a game from this genre, but please don't let these games intimidate you because they are really fun puzzles to solve. After a few levels, you'll get the hang of it and wonder why you waited so long to try one! (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 cross-off cells that can't possibly contain a filled-in cell, to reduce the number of cells and narrow the playing field down a bit.

Some of the 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, and some cells contain keys to unlock colors (unless you disable this feature in settings) 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 never miss purchasing the Fantasy Mosaics games; I purchase them as soon as they're released; I never waste time playing the free demo. I was expecting pretty much the same gameplay as all the other games in this series, but I was just astounded at the changes made to previous games.
The first thing I noticed was the much improved graphics. They are much brighter and the scenes are more detailed and colorful. So relaxing on the eyes and more interesting to explore.
But the biggest surprises were the additional mini-games within the main game. In addition, there are more scenes to complete instead of just the one garden, etc. I have played two sets of 6 puzzles and so far there are 2 rooms in the house to populate with items won by playing the main game. Moving into a different room also set off another puzzle. This puzzle was to remove sets of 1 to 3 books off a shelf without removing the last one. I tried twice and was unable to complete it correctly. Sure adds to the challenge of the main game.
This game has all the other great mosaics as the previous games. There is a choice of difficulty, several choices of tiles to use, and many-colored scenes to solve. But this game goes so much farther than any of the other games in this series. It is much more interesting and challenging, I didn't want to stop playing. How wonderful to find one of my favorite series expand into new areas. Way to go!
Don't miss this game even if you have or haven't played the others in the series. Show less

I recommend this game!

I have a hard time believing that this is Fantasy Mosaics 33. I know, thankfully, that we never seem to have to wait too long for the next game in the penguin saga but it is hard to imagine that game 33 is here already. There is another mosaics game that I love now as well, but I still feel a certain fondness and loyalty to Fantasy Mosaics.

When I began playing FM 33 this morning I was surprised at how it began with a bit more challenge than is usually the case and I was happy to see it. I also love the seemingly new mechanics of the way we enter the next set of puzzles.

For all of you who love Fantasy Mosaics I am sure you will be happy with this game and it will most likely be an instant buy for you. After all we lovers of mosaic puzzle games can never seem to get enough of them. The great thing is that we can play a few boards when time allows and then pick it up and begin again. The only thing I would love to see in future games is that if we must stop playing at some point, we have the option to save the current board so that we could come back and pick up where we left off rather than having to begin again.

All in all, Fantasy Mosaics and the penguins are still a long-time favorite game with me. As always, please try the demo to see if this is a game you will enjoy. Happy gaming! Show less

Latest in this long series is up to its usual standard wuth the addition of some mini puzzles in the workshop, the puzzles I have played are good however the book puzzle is impossible to win if you go first which you have to do as you dont have a choice, shame but the rest of the game is great as usual.

I never really care that much about the story line but it's always great to see what items I have seen/ collected after every 5 levels. Love the grids and colours~~ especially love the light green colour that came with some grids. Music is calming and lovely to listen to. Can be challenging to the brain at times, but that is the reason I keep playing them

I recommend this game!

Lots of players relish each new FM grid game. I'm not one of them simply because there are too many. Lots of grids are repetitious so whenever I get an urge to visit it's easier and cheaper to redownload a previously purchased game. 3 stars for this version since it is much easier than some of its predecessors. During the one hour trial I completed 21 grids and I never use hints.

Lots of players relish each new FM grid game. I'm not one of them simply because there are too many. Lots of grids are repetitious so whenever I get an urge to visit it's easier and cheaper to redownload a previously purchased game. 3 stars for this version since it is much easier than some of its predecessors. During the one hour trial I completed 21 grids and I never use hints.

A couple years ago a different developer devised a grid game that had 3 different shapes which provided a greater challenge than these FM games. The problem with the 3 shape game was a glitch which prevented the completion of some grids and a patch was never issued.

Perhaps the powers that be at Match Gems can put on thinking caps and come up with a new twist instead of churning out the same game every couple of months. Show less

I don't recommend this game.
