Good morning everyone Ahh there's nothing like the smell of hammers, nails, and Vikings on a Monday morning you gotta love it ! We have an excellent builder this morning brought to us by the same dev's that have delivered some awesome match 3 games such as Hello Venice, and The Adventures Of Mary Ann: Lucky Pirates or simply the Squidward team minus Sponge Bob, Patrick and Mr. Krabs. For me this is the first time seeing this team do a builder and let me tell they did an awesome job the graphics are simply gorgeous, the sound effects are cool, the music is cool and the story is cool this time we are traveling through the tree of life collecting magic orb's to help our village so all the worlds we visit are hanging worlds and they are so cool.

I'm loving this one so far and the timer doesn't bother me but come on dev's there are so many people that had rather play in relaxed mode so please, please start giving everyone the option of enjoying your games and start putting a relaxed mode in these games people love them and want to play them but some don't like the clock and that's understandable so please give these folks a chance to have fun as well and I bet you'll see an increase in your not to mention more .

This is basically your typical builder collecting resources, building homes, shops etc. cutting wood, mining gold, collecting rent and paying off the bad guys so you can pass through. Down at the bottom you have your inventory of buildings and homes to choose from and with this one so far I've seen a couple different ones a doll factory and a hat factory there is also a yogurt factory which I haven't got to yet but so far this game is awesome and I'm loving it the characters are really cute also your goals for the day are listed at the top and bottom. Everything about the game is fun and I love the graphics everything is so detailed and colorful and on this one we are traveling by air ship. This is really a cool game and I'm hoping to see more like this from this developer I love their match 3 games and I'm loving this one and they really did a excellent job on it and I'm as happy as a pig in slop this morning these are my all time favorite games I never ever get tired of them. Give the demo a try it's worth it. Thank you Squidward dev's for giving us this awesome builder and thank you Big Fish for giving me an excuse to skip my domestic goddess duties for another day. Have fun everybody ! Show less

If you are TM fan then you will love this challenging game. You have to be quick if you want to obtain 3 gold stars as you proceed up the levels. I have to admit that even on level 2 I had to have two tries at it! But in my opinion, the fact that you have to work things out and beat the clock makes this a great game.

When I first played this game, it was frustrating, since it is difficult to get the Gold on every Level. I've had to repeat several times just to get the Gold... and all because I want to play the bonus levels!!!! I'm hooked.

When I first played this game, it was frustrating, since it is difficult to get the Gold on every Level. I've had to repeat several times just to get the Gold... and all because I want to play the bonus levels!!!! I'm hooked.

The music is epic, sort of like battle music, which is needed in this game. The graphics are top-notch and excellent and the story line is humorous. I love how they gather their best warriors and there is a scrawny little viking in the mix. The viking men build and plunder and the viking women or valkyries gather the goods. The levels are built on a tree called the Tree of Life. I like how the game play travels up and down the tree, instead of completing one area. The quest is to find the 4 elemental runes that are hidden in the 4 worlds in the Tree of Life. The runes have the power to put the dragon asleep and stop him from attacking the Tree of Life. He really is a bothersome dragon as he will blow up your buildings as he flies by.

It is really difficult to remember what buildings are needed to complete the items. An example is for Ice Cream... you need Berries from the berry farm, a Berry Crusher to make Berry Juice, Milk from the Dairy Cow farm. You have to gather these as the dragon tries to destroy your progress. The yogurt uses the same ingredients, except doesn't use the berry crusher, so you can double your items and share between them. Just as the Doll requires Wheat/Sheep/ and the Hat requires Wheat/Sheep/Loom, so you can gather and share and alternate between them to complete your goods. Run through it once and see what is needed and what you can upgrade, and that will help with completing the level.

The valkyries gather the items, so you should have at least one per farm, and a market to sell your goods and get money and a sawmill for the wood to upgrade your farms. Always upgrade as it doubles the items produced.

The valkyries have to enter the farm, so when the farm is ready you click on it and the valkyrie will go to the farm and and you have to wait for her to gather the goods, then you have to pick up the goods. There is a slight pause as the farm generates before you can again harvest it. It is a pain when you're almost out of time!!! But keep playing and repeating the level until you get it. A lot of people have mentioned that it is annoying and clicky and you cannot queue your workers. I think this makes it more challenging and it is more specific, in that you have to assign your players and then when the goods are finished, you have to gather them. It is really challenging, and very fast paced. You have to pay attention and know which are ready in order to gather the goods, before they are gone. You can swipe your mouse over and not have to actually click, so it is easier to gather the goods. Sort of reminds me of Royal Envoy.

Others have said it's for kids, and even though it has cute little cartoon-like characters, I think it's a little too challenging for little ones. I think once you get used to the game play, you'll find it enjoyable. Show less

I think the game would benefit from some changes regarding the chance factor, in some levels you just need a dragon to fire one specific building to prevent you from getting gold on numerous occasions and it doesn't seem fair if you planned your building right, so I would suggest for the developers to take that into account for future games.
Also maybe introducing new challenges for extra points on some levels that if you have time to do would be a nice addition and that if you do not have time to do would not interfere with the gold stars :) Show less

This time management game really kept me on my toes. I had to move quick and be ready and willing to replay levels a few times. That was part of the fun. Seeing what the level challenges were, figuring out how to overcome them, deep breathing, doing a few neck rolls and diving back in.

I was able to get the gold in all the levels. So give it a try knowing it can be done. Whew. What a blast. Show less

like selling your items for money then find out you can't because it takes away from your item count but once figured out beatable.
this game is not for new beginners on tm games
very good stratgy to use in this game and some levels very fast clicking building etc.
