I love match 3 games, and this one has a lot more to it than just making matches. You can adjust the volume of the sound effects, music, monsters, and voice overs. There are also power up and display quality options. You name your city before beginning the game. There are 3 regions and 3 choices of difficulty; easy, normal, hard.

I love match 3 games, and this one has a lot more to it than just making matches. You can adjust the volume of the sound effects, music, monsters, and voice overs. There are also power up and display quality options. You name your city before beginning the game. There are 3 regions and 3 choices of difficulty; easy, normal, hard. There are also requirements to get upgrades (# of villagers, food supply, wood supply, etc.) There are good instructions in the game and it takes time to read those. And there are quests to fill to move on. The graphics are cartoony, but not bad, the match 3 board is pretty small on the left side of the screen. Music is pretty good, but you adjust it to what level you want it. It is challenging to play cause there is a lot to do and you must choose how to solve problems the villagers bring to you. The story line is to protect and build the city, build resources, and battle the enemy (match 3). Larger matches give you extra rewards. If you are looking for a simple match 3, this is not the game for you, if you like match 3 and building and upgrading for quests you should try this game. Have fun! Show less

I recommend this game!

ReignMaker is a wonderful game that I have already fallen in love with.

I love match3 games and this is one of the most interesting and unique takes on match3 that I have ever seen.

I love building up my town and interacting with my cute little villagers. They are all going about their lives as I defend my town by playing match3 boards to defeat the invading monsters.

There is so much variety in the game boards, spells, and items. The game has so much content that it feels like one of the best values I've ever gotten in a game.

I cannot recommend this game highly enough, and I hope the developers make another game to continue the storyline. Show less

This is one of those games that you get so engulfed in that before you know it - there is that pesky 'your trial period has expired' popup. LOL.

This is definitely a cross between match-3 and tower defense. But there is also a 'building' aspect to it as well.

This is one of those games that you get so engulfed in that before you know it - there is that pesky 'your trial period has expired' popup. LOL.

This is definitely a cross between match-3 and tower defense. But there is also a 'building' aspect to it as well.

There is a LOT going on in this game. You will need to pay a lot of attention to different aspects in order to succeed.

You essentially start out with a new city. Then you choose buildings to build in order to provide items/resources. IE, farm, armory, lumber mill etc. You gather resources at these places to purchase items to use in 'battle mode'.

In 'battle mode', you play a 'match 3' game where your 'matches' fire weapons on intruders. Your fortress is your match-3 board.

You research things like spells, weapons etc to use in game and you use towns people to complete certain tasks. You also enact 'policies' to advance your town. These, IMO, policies get annoying after a while.

It is a great game, no doubt. But it is also very complex - a lot going on and it may very well take you more than the demo to get the hang of it. But it is definitely worth a buy! Show less

I recommend this game!

This is a really great game and I am totally loving it.

City building part is great.

Match 3 part is top notch.

Collecting the beasts is really fun.

I really love the graphics and the story as well. The policies you make decisions on are a hoot.

I am telling all my friends to get this game.

I recommend this game!

Thank you thank you Frogdice for this special game, I'm a time management fan and there are plenty out there that are just "okay". This is brilliant. Graphics are good, it is not an easy game as you have to amass wood, food and ore to upgrade your factories and that takes time. You have a choice of defenders to help you along in the match 3 attempt to generate enough "zaps" to kill your enemies, ...Show more

Graphics are good, it is not an easy game as you have to amass wood, food and ore to upgrade your factories and that takes time. You have a choice of defenders to help you along in the match 3 attempt to generate enough "zaps" to kill your enemies, and these choices are extended when you upgrade your town hall. I've been playing it for hours now and I don't think I can stop. Thank you for putting thought into the development of this game, in order to hold the interest, which it certainly does. OK, back to it!! Show less

ReignMaker is the best match 3 that I ever played, I love my city(especially the one has a blue rooftop ) and my citizens. I also love the policy part,it is quite interesting when the policy results come out and the city will has some changes.
The M3 part is a bit tough, but still enjoy it, this is a game which is worth to buy.

I recommend this game!

I really enjoy match-3 games. This one, has a base around match-3 but so much more! The element of growing your city, and populations is tremendous fun. I love the little details all over the game, too...like how the little villagers talk to each other, and the tiny critters.

I believe this is the sequel to Tower of Elements (which was also fun and hard) and I like this one even better. You have to be quick to find the matches/pick up gold, scrolls, etc/use weapons and your two "people" you can choose. There is a lot to this game, and I will be playing it for a long time to come. Thank you BF for releasing more of these games!

I recommend this game!
