I was looking for new match3 game and this game is really addictive. The story is simple but enough intresting for match3 game. I like the art style and especilly animations of gods! Really nice looking. Levels are pretty challenging but you always can swith to relax mode to beat the game.

I recommend this game!

This game is very simple to play, especially in relaxed mode. That's perfect for me. I like not having to think about moves sometimes. It doesn't feel like a game I will play every day, but it is relaxing enough that I purchased it.

I recommend this game!

Yes in relaxed mode it wouldn't be challenging but it would take quite some time to finish a level. But in the limited moves mode, you absolutely have to know what each bonus can do for you , otherwise you can't finish a level. So it requires thinking but I like challenging M3's. I didn't see the challenge in the allotted demo time but bought it anyways, glad I did. I'm very experienced at M3's ...Show more

I enjoyed playing this game because it was based on the history of Egypt. I liked it when I had powerups to clear things. This was as well as clearing things with the gods

A fun, colorful game that can be quite hard if you choose. Even at the easiest mode it gets very difficult for a few times at the 95 level, where move-limited icons appear. I just kept hitting the settings icon and clicking "Replay" until the board showed a good setup that allowed me to delete most of the move-limited icons right off the bat. Whatever floats your boat. :)

This is not your typical match 3 game where you have to beat the clock. Instead you have a limited number of moves and you have to develop a strategy on how to win the level. This means that once you get into the game you will find yourself repeating levels as you test your hypotheses. It is important to learn to master using the gods in order to win the higher levels.

If this game had an option for playing in a Timed Mode only, I would have immediately purchased it, but I rarely enjoy a Limited Moves Match 3 game. There is, however, an Expert Mode of difficulty which is maddeningly challenging, and incorporates both Limited Moves AND Limited Time! There is also a Relaxed Mode (unlimited time and moves) and a Casual Mode of difficulty with Limited Moves, but you won't earn Stars in either of those modes.

There are 4 Pyramid locations and each Pyramid has 20 Match 3 Levels which can be replayed as often as you'd like. Halfway through the levels, you get to play a really creative three-part Match 3 Bonus game where you must remove all tiles. The tiles don't regenerate so you have to use strategy to and anticipate the pattern of the falling tiles. (there are unlimited moves and time in the Bonus Game) Completing Level 20 gives you the Key to unlock the next Pyramid. There are 13 Achievements to earn as well. I was a little disappointed that it doesn't allow you to switch between difficulty modes, I started out in the Expert Mode and then switched over to the Casual Mode to see the differences, and had to start over from the beginning. When playing in Casual or Relaxed Modes, you get unlimited Time, but you have to meet the Level Goals (removing a specified number of specified tiles) within a specified number of Moves, and they don't give you enough moves in my opinion (relaxed mode has no limits) In the Expert Mode, you are required to meet the level goals within a specified number of Moves, and to make it even more challenging, there is a Star Time Meter that winds down very quickly. You can earn 3 Gold Stars, 2 Silver Stars or 1 Bronze Star, so you can actually have moves remaining but only get 1 or 2 stars if you don't complete the level at break-neck speeds!

Large Matches will award you with Bonuses on the board, but unlike other M3 games lately, there aren't a ton of large Matches available, so you do have to work at finding large matches. I was also a little disappointed that you can't make consecutive matches quickly because you have to wait for tiles to finish dropping before making the next match. I also noticed that in Expert Mode, the timer keeps winding down when you make the final match until the tiles stop falling!

Bonus Tiles (color specific)
~Match 4: Horizontal or Vertical Line buster.
~Match 5: Pharoah to remove all of the same tiles as matched with.
~T Shape Match: Bomb to explode adjacent tiles.
~L Shape Match: Removes tiles in an X formation.
~Combo Bonuses: Swap 2 Bonuses to combine for a larger explosion.

As you progress you will use the coins you earn to Restore and Upgrade Egyptian God Statues. They can be used to help you beat the levels, but they must charge and recharge after each use.

~Houus: destroys selected tokens and several random tokens.
~Osiris: changes the color of tokens.
~Anubis: destroys selected tokens and several random tokens.
~Hathor: destroys a row of tokens.
~Isis: destroys a column of tokens.
~Tot: swaps a regular token for a combo booster.
~Ra: swaps tokens even if they don't match. Show less

I recommend this game!

I like this game. The jewel icons could be prettier, but it has some nice features, especially the powerups which are actually gods who animate when you click on them to help you. That was a nice surprise. You have to unlock them first before you can use them, by building their statues.

I usually choose the relaxed mode, so no problem with the limited moves or timing.
