Ratings and reviews

Fun game very nice graphics, interesting storyline. Challenging puzzles, but in a good way. Just downloaded and been playing for hours. UPDATE: I still love this game, but some levels are too difficult to pass. Even using the power-ups, they are not targeted to help. Because of this, I will never spend any money, it would be a waste. The developers should really think about this if they even read my post.

This is a great game play to unwind. The visual style is clean and beautiful, the characters endearing, and the music is playful while setting the tone of a classic who-done-it. Each puzzle limits the number of moves you can make, but it's not timed, so you can focus on strategy. As you complete puzzles, you're rewarded with more of the linear storyline and you get to meet new and interesting characters.

I was able to get to level 152 before the game got too hard. I don't mind a challenge but like EVERY match 3 game you get to a place where you really can't play unless you spend money. On top of that before clues came up you had to pass sometimes 7 games. Got stupid the higher you go. Don't waste your time. (Responding to developers: I understand the need for puzzles to get more difficult. But when i spend over an hour playing one puzzle, out of boosters & goes for days that's rediculous.)
