An OK match 3 spoiled by amateurish 2d art, an annoying tendency to crash and (worst of all) an annoying control scheme that makes manipulating the tiles hit and miss. Oh it also has an annoying main menu, you have to hit space rather than mouse to skip cutscenes, there's no way to set resolution, no graphics options. I thought the way to exit and save...

Even at the current discounted price of $2.99, I can't recommend this game. It feels like a rushed game jam entry. My standards are relatively low for match 3 games, but this one fights you every step of the way, destroying any chance of having fun. Puzzle Quest, Puzzle Quest 2, 10000000, Loot Hunter, and Bret Airborne were all more enjoyable (in descending...
Literally the worst controls in any game I have ever played. Space is accept except for sometimes when enter is accept. Delete is cancel. It's a match three game where you have to use WASD to slowly and manually move the cursor instead of using the mouse like any sensible match three game.
If you're thinking, "This looks like a budget version of Puzzle Quest," it's not.
