I played the demo of this game and at first, I thought it was a small, simple little game with little challenge.

However, I liked the art style and I played a bit longer and I'm really glad I did. I bought it after playing about 15 mins.

I played the demo of this game and at first, I thought it was a small, simple little game with little challenge.

However, I liked the art style and I played a bit longer and I'm really glad I did. I bought it after playing about 15 mins.

I don't often write reviews of games, but I have chosen to write this one because a lot of people have had a quick look and decided it was pretty basic, but you really need to play for yourself and give it a chance.

The first location is getting a certain score in a given amount of moves, but there are loads of locations to unlock. I've been playing this for several hours over the last few days and I've still not unlocked all the locations.
Each location has a different match 3 mode (clear the ice, collect so many stars, unlock so many chests etc), so not just one style all the way through.
The storyline is nice. There is an evil warlock heading to the valley, but there are also other challenges. Someone always needs help with something and you could be sent to any location to get the items you need.
There are also various creatures wandering around the valley. Some you need to remove and some like the little stripey pigs that you feed baskets of acorns to, and they are really, really cute!

The music is good and fits the game without being intrusive. The gameplay is smooth and fun and this is a game I'll replay lots of time, although I'm only about 1/5th of the way through as it is!

So, give it a go for yourself. Play the demo and give it a chance to show you that it has a lot to offer. Show less

I recommend this game!

I purchased and love this game. It has great length, requires thought and planing at the higher levels of puzzles. a high variety of match 3 play and pretty artwork. I've been playing for hours and hours and a not even half way through.

Please sample for yourself. Some of the negative reviews see to be from people who only played for a few minutes or just didn't pay attention to the basic strategies. None of the puzzles are difficult to understand the basic play, just difficult to conquer but not so frustrating as to be impossible. Show less

Nice art. All kinds of match three. Set up as number of moves instead of timed (for us slower players). Plenty of powerups and redos to get it right. Huge variety of rewards and progress. Don't know why the bad reviews.

I recommend this game!

Despite the cuteness, this is not a game for young children.
You have to put thought into your matches, as there only limited moves. The relaxing music helps this process.

5 BN Games Developers never cease to amaze me with so many outstanding games. This is well worth the purchase price with many hours of enjoyment and challenges.

This game starts out a little slow, with very basic match three, but then it grows exponentially. There are ten different game modes, collections to gather, power ups, and characters to interact with to gain items. While the story was fun and lasted through the first 100 or so levels, it really was only the beginning of the game. This game can continue on almost indefinitely. I have been playing it for two weeks now and have yet to gather all of the collection items. My favorite thing is that some of the modes are just mindless and some you actually have to think and strategize. Plus, there is no timer, only set numbers of moves. When you get tired of one mode, there are nine others to choose from. Highly recommended for match-three aficionados! Show less

Everything but unlimited moves so far??, but it is just that type of game, a strategy M3. This type of limited moves game is fun because you just keep playing again and you get all the playing time you want, it is not based on levels like traditional M3 games. Game does not end NOR stuck at a level . Just go to a different area if you don't like that particular type M3. Even though if you know how to play M3 you will have no difficulty at least finishing board. It gives you plenty of moves to complete if you match with goal in mind.

The point of the game is to continue gaining more and more EXPERIENCE from playing to open the different AREAS. Each area you can gain up to 3 stars at a time to master the area if you choose, going from a novice type to master, even if it is only one star at a time. It doesn't matter, because this game is not based on how many stars you get at a time. It is a cumulative accounting of stars.

Each area there is different type of M3. Berry Meadow is based on points. Laboratory is matching certain vials. Library is bringing key to its chest. Mushroom valley you must clear background jelly. And there is a ton more of areas to explore, each one different!! It is not a get three stars for the level type game, so that is why there is no replay to get 3 stars. Replay any area at will. Each time you will earn ITEMS depending on how many stars you get, but even if you only get one star it is valuable. You gain experience, coins and some items for your collection also a completion of the many tasks you are assigned.

Tasks go along with the story line, urging you to play different areas or collect items. That can only be found in certain areas. This adds a lot of depth to the game and keeps you striving for finishing goals.

Collections are just that. Keep collecting items to either use them for banishing some creatures roaming on the board or turning them into a prized collection in the collections tab. You can gain coins, crystals or experience to convert these items.

Crystals are the prize to collect because they buy you the power ups in gameplay. So use them wisely. They don't come abundantly although you will gain one each time you complete a board. You also get some for leveling up to higher experience level.

So what else does this game offer, amulets, chests, stones and chains to break, bombs, color eliminators....and I've only opened up 4 areas so far so plenty more to uncover that will keep my interest.

This game is definitely worth a buy. Very long, great graphics, superbly developed in all areas giving plenty to do in this game, . I believe some of the earlier reviews were not familiar with this unique type M3 and some just don't like limited moves which is no reason to give bad review. You cannot have together an untimed, unlimited move game because then it's not a game!! So enjoy the less stress that comes with no time mode and think with a little strategy if that's your cup of tea to relax for the day. Show less

I recommend this game!

I couldn't agree more with SilentEyes review & take on the game. I rarely write a review but while I was browsing I saw the star rating & couldn't believe it. I'm playing for my 3rd time & it NEVER gets old. There really is more than meets the eye to this one. There are cute, quirky characters that always need your help collecting items. There are so many locations that have different styles of match3 gameplay & after you unlock them you can play any that you like although the "quests" you're helping the character with shows you which location items can be found in, if I don't get the item after a few tries I just go to another location to play & come back to that one. The farther you go the more "creatures" (I used in quotes because they are far too cute to call them creatures) start wandering around your town & you can banish them to receive items that aid you in getting everything needed to "exchange" in your collections chest. There really is so much variety, things to do, places to go, critters to banish that you just can't list or explain. When in doubt or I see mixed (5 stars & 1 star) reviews, I know I need to check it out for myself. Try it yourself & see which side of the berry patch you lean toward, 5 star or 1 star? You might just Love it Show less

I enjoy match 3 games so I expected at least an ordinary m3 with maybe a few new twists. But a few minutes into the demo I saw there was much more there than a simple puzzle. Wow! There are mysteries to solve, items to collect, magic to wield and a deepening storyline as the game progresses! In some aspects "Clover" is similar to games like Midnight Castle and Wanderland. But instead of hidden objects or majong, match 3 moves the tale along. Your character gains strength, abilities and magic as he/she solves the quests and although moves are limited you can retry levels endlessly if necessary. Rewards of jewels, pendants, potions and other goodies are gained by solving the m3's requirements. This is a deep, fun and challenging game and I recommend at least giving it 20 minutes to begin unfolding the story before deciding if it's a keeper. Show less
