The only reason I give this great game a 4 stars is because they didn't let you change the difficulty on the game. Its very hard when you get to the higher levels. I am unable to complete the game as it is so hard. I was at a level 70 or in that range.
It gets to where they have no matches coming down at all and then the game starts adding pieces to try and help but by that time the game is over ...Show more

It gets to where they have no matches coming down at all and then the game starts adding pieces to try and help but by that time the game is over as you run out of time.

You have no additional way to earn money so that you can buy bombs in order to help complete levels ect.. Those were downfalls. I wish I could have completed the snow scene that you buy decorations for. Its a great game but way too hard. I consider myself an expert at Match 3 games. Show less

I recommend this game!

More experienced M3 players will find this game too easy, but it's great for newbies who just want to have fun and relax.

The visuals are somewhat simplistic and not bowl-you-over fantastic.

Basically each match 3 level completed earns you points to upgrade a basic xmas village scene to create a dazzling xmas village, replete with lights, snowmen, shops, trees, etc.

More experienced M3 players will find this game too easy, but it's great for newbies who just want to have fun and relax.

The visuals are somewhat simplistic and not bowl-you-over fantastic.

Basically each match 3 level completed earns you points to upgrade a basic xmas village scene to create a dazzling xmas village, replete with lights, snowmen, shops, trees, etc.

There is also a Shop where you can buy power-ups to tackle harder levels.

Timed mode gives you plenty of time to finish a level, and most levels are not too hard.

There are 100 levels to complete, but each level has levels within a level, so it is actually more than "100" levels.

There is one bonus level after 100, but doesn't earn you anything--just another M3 to play.

I loved playing this game, but deducted one star for the simplistic visuals and absence of screensaver at end of game. Show less

I recommend this game!

The game starts out very easy; however, after level 12 things start to get harder. There is a timer or number of moves. You have power-ups but you have to earn them, although some do appear on boards. You earn money to prepare the town for Christmas. I have played the previous two Christmas puzzles and enjoyed them all.

I recommend this game!

This is a cute Christmas themed Match 3 game that let's you purchase decorations to prepare the town with snowmen etc. I would have found this game more appealing if the Match 3 items were more colorful, instead the various items to match are bland and drab.

This is a cute Christmas themed Match 3 game that let's you purchase decorations to prepare the town with snowmen etc. I would have found this game more appealing if the Match 3 items were more colorful, instead the various items to match are bland and drab. There are Moons, Santa Sleighs, Ornaments, Stars, Snowflakes and even Cupcakes to match. Some levels have limited moves which I don't really care for, and the goal is to complete the game to earn 3 gold stars (you can re-play any level) You will need to swap tiles in groups of at least 3, as you drop coins from the top to the bottom. There are tiles that are locked, and even tiles that are covered in snow, and you need to make matches on all silver and gold cells as well. The decorations can be purchased after each level with the coins you have earned, but you don't have to buy them to progress. There are power ups to earn such as a Mighty bomb which clears a group of tiles, a Chameleon which can be matched with any tile and directional Rockets which clears an entire line in the direction the rocket is facing. There are even tiles with lumps of Coal which can only be removed by using a power up, I just wasn't in the Christmas spirit on this one I suppose. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

This seemed like a rather pedestrian effort, a Match 3 with candy canes and other Xmas items. But it might keep the little ones occupied on Christmas if their presents don't.

You also earn coins to buy Christmas decorations for the town. A nice touch.

Not recommending because boring, but try it, you might find it festive for the season

I don't recommend this game.

A little bird tells me there is a sequel to this coming out very soon so I thought I would try the demo on this one to prepare me.

First off with these games there are people who like timed, people who like relaxed and people who like limited moves but to do what they have done here is a recipe for disaster.

You really need to provide different modes. Timed, relaxed and limited moves so that you cater for all. I hate timed I like to relax. Others hate relaxed and so on.
It just does not work mixing them all up like this.

Also Christmas is a time for bright colors and these colors are really dull and it needs brightening up.
Here is hoping that 4 is a better thought out game Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I love these games and this one was no different until I came up against the timed board. I have tried for several days to get past this one puzzle without success. Please, please, please
developers put a fix to add more time or a skip button. I want to play this game! I was so excited to see it come out, I purchased it immediately and now I can't enjoy it.

I don't recommend this game.

I regret buying this game. I play casual games to relax and all this game did was stress me out even more. It is NO FUN to have to play the same level 3-4 times. It is WAY, WAY too hard and ruins the enjoyment factor. The nice graphics and visuals are wasted here. I will be wary of games from this developer from now on and stay far away. This was a waste of my money.

I don't recommend this game.

Maybe good for children. I quit after 10 minutes of playing. No challenge. A poor match 3 game for this time & era.

I don't recommend this game.
