Hello, players!
The best tactic at 25 level is to combine boosters, you need to combine a simple booster (4 elements in a row) + Fire Booster (T-shaped or L-shaped figure of elements), Fire Booster + Police Siren (5 elements in a row)

Best regards, Intersol Team.

I recommend this game!

I have already restarted playing the game five times only to get to level 25 and can't beat it. I will not give up and when I do master this level, I will post again.

I recommend this game!

I guess some don't like limited moves, I do. It makes it more of a strategy game than just a "keep going till you win" scenario.

I recommend this game!

lvl 168 is the end for me i guess. Just can't beat it. Tried it over and over and over again, and now i'm really done with it. Nice for a while though.

I recommend this game!

DID THEY WRAP UP THE CASE WITHOUT INVESTIGATING THE CRIME SCENE?

I'm still not a fan of the Limited Moves Match 3 games offered by this particular developer, but I will give them credit for adding some really challenging obstacles to this game. I liked the Crime-solving scenario of playing Match 3 levels to earn Stars which are used to "Investigate" the crime scenes via a Hidden Object Scene, but there are only a handful of Listed Items to find, just when you start to enjoy finding Hidden Objects, it's over!

The Match 3 levels are still the same Intersol "sticky-sweet" Match 3 games. I have never been a fan of M3 games that gives you so many large matches that you are constantly getting Bonuses on the board. With all those bonuses, nearly every move you make causes an explosion of some sort which really plays the game for you, some levels require a handful of strategic moves and the explosions do the work for you!

You are given a specified number of Limited Moves to obtain the level goals, usually removing a specified number of specified icons, as well as removing all tan colored cells, some levels require you to drop items to the bottom of the board A Match 4 will give you a Horizontal or Vertical Line buster, a Match 5 will give you a Police Light that removes all of the same element, a T or L shaped match will give you a Burning Tile which explodes a bomb. Most of the bonuses have to be included in a match of the same icon the detonate, and you get to choose which power-ups to use at the start of each level.

The Shifting Columns or Rows have returned, an Intersol Games feature included in all of their M3 games, and this game includes a challenging Burning Candle and Coin feature, where more are added to block cells by multiplying every time you don't remove one by making an adjacent match. I thought this feature was really interesting.

The feature that annoys me the most is that you can't make fast consecutive matches because you have to wait until all the tiles stop falling. They did speed up the scoring process where the computer continues to play through all of the remaining moves.

I love match 3 games, this one would be great if a relaxed mode got added to the settings. I really don't like limited move games. The graphics and storyline were good. If a relaxed mode got added to the settings I would likely buy it. Overall it's not a bad game if you don't mind limited moves I recommend this game.

I recommend this game!

I don't mind difficult games, but no fun if you have to play over and over and over-----------and 25 is like that. I stopped playing it.

I don't recommend this game.

This is more of a match 3 game with a small hidden object search every 5 or so games. The match 3 is pretty basic early on but by level 9 it is overly difficult, about 10 minutes into the game. The story really doesn't match the games.

I don't recommend this game.

I usually read the comments before trying a game. I could have saved myself from downloading this game. I keep waiting for a really good match 3 game and this isn't it. I never buy games that give you no choice on how to play. This one has limited moves only. And you don't build anything. Rather boring imo. I'm still playing match 3's that I already own, and I really miss getting another good one. ...Show more

I never buy games that give you no choice on how to play. This one has limited moves only. And you don't build anything. Rather boring imo. I'm still playing match 3's that I already own, and I really miss getting another good one. Like Farmscapes, Match 3 Royale, Silver Tale. Silver Tale has limited moves but you can play relaxed and you get more than enough moves. I have many good match 3 games but I'd sure welcome some new ones. Show less

I don't recommend this game.
