❤ Gameplay Overview

The core gameplay involves swapping adjacent tiles to create matches of 3 or more of the same type. Unlike typical match-3 games, this title uses a turn-based system instead of a time limit, allowing players to strategize their moves.

❤ Match-3 Mechanics

The match-3 gameplay features several standard mechanics, as well as some unique twists. Creating matches of 3, 4, or 5 tiles triggers different types of power-ups, such as bombs, lightning strikes, and rockets. Various obstacles, including rocks, ice, and zombies, require specific strategies to clear. One unique mechanic is the use of "zombie" tiles that take extra damage from certain colored matches. Players must pay attention to the zombie types and plan their moves accordingly.

❤ Solitaire and Puzzles

The game includes several side activities to break up the match-3 gameplay, such as solitaire card games and jigsaw puzzles. The 15 distinct solitaire challenges are well-designed and can be enjoyed independently. The jigsaw puzzles task players with swapping tiles to reveal a hidden image, providing a nice puzzle-solving element.

❤ Resource Management and Progression

As players progress through the match-3 levels, they earn in-game currency to build and upgrade a resort on the island. This resort-building mechanic, while not directly tied to the gameplay, provides a sense of progression and investment in the game world. The levels themselves are structured to encourage strategic thinking. Players must often plan ahead and use power-ups effectively to clear obstacles and defeat zombie enemies.
