i really enjoyed this game. there was a story being told while playing. most M3 games are like that now. the game gives you hints if you take too long between moves. you get tools to help but the game picks which ones you get on each level.

I recommend this game!

We know the game. The morphing tiles, spider webs, the jewels that drop from the board, etc. They're all there and a handful of power-ups. I'm not fond of the game because earning stars is difficult and buying anything is a very slow process.

We know the game. The morphing tiles, spider webs, the jewels that drop from the board, etc. They're all there and a handful of power-ups. I'm not fond of the game because earning stars is difficult and buying anything is a very slow process.

The boards and tiles are dark and not appealing, and nothing about the gameplay has a fun feel to it for me. The graphics for Jake Everest are simple and the characters are goofy looking. Jake is a dorky kind of guy sporting a few chest hairs that don't do much for his macho image. I thought it was cute along with that big, flashy smile!

I was only able to achieve one building opportunity in the demo, no choice of piece or placement. Many others like this game style and probably have a bunch of them. I do own several myself but I always tire of them, never finishing any because, at least for me, it takes too long to accomplish the goals. Show less

I recommend this game!

It is not the first time I have noticed a game with new artwork. Same layouts or mostly the same. You can fool some of the people... This makes me sad.

I don't recommend this game.

I don't understand, why is it okay to offer the same game with the same exact level layouts while only bothering to change the graphics and story? People are getting duped into believing they are buying a brand new game from this developer only to discover they have already played the game a month earlier under a different title!

I don't understand, why is it okay to offer the same game with the same exact level layouts while only bothering to change the graphics and story? People are getting duped into believing they are buying a brand new game from this developer only to discover they have already played the game a month earlier under a different title!

On November 21, 2022, I played Amanda's Magic Book 6: Aladdin's Magic Lamp, and now, just 2 weeks later they release this game which has identical levels, identical goals, and identical gameplay....they don't even bother to mix up the level order to throw the consumer off, they just blatantly update the graphics and title and call it a day! This isn't right, they should be held to some kind of standard or Big Fish should add a "warning" to the synopsis!

Some icons are trapped under Spiderwebs or Ropes that require making matches of whatever tile is blocked within them, but most of them are just filler features, and unblocking the tiles is never a necessity to progress unless they block other areas of interest. They also got rid of the spiders that everyone seemed to hate but I actually liked them because at least it was a challenging feature.

The only goal really is to make matches over all of the Gold, Silver, or Blue Cells and make the required number of matches of each specified element tile. Some levels have Crystals that can be collected by dropping them off the board when you make matches under them...they will appear in the same levels as the last game...go ahead and compare the 2 games, I'll wait...

Powerups with various abilities are added at the start of each level, two at a time. Each powerup comes with a limited amount but I have no clue if you can purchase more when it runs out because I've yet to need a powerup to beat the levels in games by this developer. (because I've played this game over and over, just under different titles) The powerups are the same in every e-FunSoft game, they just change the name, such as a Stone Axe to clear a single tile, a Knife to clear a 5-tile radius horizontally, a Badik Knife to clear a 5-tile radius vertically, or a Tifa Drum to clear a 2x2 square radius.

Bonus Bombs are added to the board as well, a Match 5 awards you with a Medium Bomb on the board to clear a 9-tile radius, and a Match 6 awards you with a Large Bomb that clears a 12-tile radius (I have never received a small bomb on any of these games so I'm not sure if it even exists??)

You must purchase all 4 World Upgrades with stars earned to progress to the next Chapter, 5 Chapters total, (with the single Star you earn for completing each level) There are no options for the upgraded worlds, such as which building to construct, nor does it allow you to place the building where you want, so it's a boring and meaningless feature for me personally because basically it just allows you to read more text about the saga at hand, they don't even have a feature that tells you when an upgrade is available.

I don't recommend this game.

1) EVEN BIG MATCHES do NOT give you an extra powerup AND 2) the HAMMER HIT LOCATION is WAY OFF, so even after trying to hit ONE TILE TWICE, it hit different adjacent ones only.

This developer JUST GIVES THE SAME GAME OVER AND OVER AND OVER and CALLS IT "NEW" because they change the story and landscape upgrade. So if you have played ANY ONE OF THEIR DOZENS of GAMES, you might as well have played ...Show more
