Not as good as I expected.

Wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be. Same old match 3 game.

I wonder whether Monarch is a sequel to the BKR series or maybe a new series in itself. In either case, it is a beauty of a game.

After a longawaited wait, the game is finally out. I didn't even bother to play the demo; I just purchased it. And I wasn't a bit disappointed.

Reflexive has made only a slight change here. The bombs have been replaced by potions; tikis by Butterfly King height, the skeleton fish have been replaced (oh yes u do have the bad guys here too) by the Frogs of someplace-I-don't-remember and of course, the fish have been replaced by Butterflies and great looking ones at that.

The only thing that I would have loved was Reflexive to change the sfx of the game coz all of them feel a bit borrowed from the BKR series. The gameplay has been eased up a bit, dunno why, maybe to attract even more people. The concept of breaking tiles and match-3 is the same, but the best thing I liked was the introduction of a story-line. That was quite an innovation, and Reflexive deserves a pat-on-the-back for that.

One more thing, if Reflexive could grant it; a screensaver of the butterflies on an animated background of all the flowers present in the game coz I absolutely loved the BKR ones. Hope my wish gets granted...

And to all the people out there, if u haven't played match-3, or if u r tired playing match-3, I say, come here n try Monarch and then don't blame me for ur adddiction. LOL.

Added: Ooooh, I forgot to mention this but every tenth level is full of potions, to make the game end in a faster and esier way. I love this game, absolutely.

Excellent

As usual, Reflexive knows its business, this game is just excellent and, yes, very similar to BKR, but that's a compliment. I just played the demo and I'm going to buy it, of course.
