Well done! Amazing! Tricky!

Khufu is a big hairy blue monkey who has excellent manners, is quite eloquent and has a manicure that I envy. Some of Khufu’s favorite words are “Well Done, Amazing and Tricky”. I whole heartedly agree. This game has done it right!

The artwork, special effects and sound effects are outstanding. The visual quality is similar to Magic Match and Stone Loops of Jurassica. The music is appropriate for the adventure theme and quite pleasant.

There are seven different types of match 3 games to play as you restore the temples of different ancient gods. There are 72 games with each temple, plus mini games to earn bonus points and power ups. So there is plenty to keep you busy for quite a long time. The voiceovers for the gods and Khufu, the big blue monkey, are excellent. Each god greets you as you enter and Khufu encourages you as you play. When you have played four levels in one temple you receive a key that unlocks another temple and you can go there or stay where you are to complete the current temple.

The game developers even added a relaxed mode to the game at the request of the game players. This makes the game very adaptable to your needs as a player. I have completed the 504 levels in both the relaxed and timed modes and I thoroughly enjoyed both. This game offers a lot of variety and interest for a Match 3 game.

If you like Match 3 or if you haven’t played one in a long time, I think you will really like this one.

Ancient Quest of Saqqarah

At first glance I thought "Oh no, not another match 3/puzzle game" and, in a way it is, but once you start playing, you are in for a real treat. The graphics are fantastic and the gameplay is totally outstanding. I played 40 levels before I realised how long I had been playing!
The great thing is that you can unlock other levels fairly quickly and this takes away the repetitiveness of the game.
This is extremely addictive and a "must-have" game.

Variety galore

What I liked about this match-3 is that it combines just about every type of match-3 games into its one interface. You can do a lines-type puzzle or go to another temple and do a straight match-3 or do a "pop the group" type of match. There are 7 (if I'm not mistaken) different types of puzzles including a logic puzzle that definitely had my brain working happily.

The other plus is that Codeminion is promising new game packs to be offered for download so that the puzzles remain new and fresh. That's progress!
