Review
Marine Puzzle invites us in a world of pirates, hidden treasures, and mystery. It combines adventure with match 3 puzzles in such a way that it absorbs us from the very beginning, probably not because of its gameplay, which in fact presents nothing new to the genre, but mainly for its captivating story. It tells the story of a merchant who after years of sailing and suffering pirate attacks, decided to follow his ancestor's path and become a pirate himself. His thirst for adventure takes him to explore islands, battle pirates, and collect gold and treasures.
In difference with the classic match 3 puzzles, here the player takes turns (of three moves) with the computer to create rows of three matching elements, while trying to sink the enemy ship. Collecting more than three pieces gives the player an extra four-time round. Elements to collect are varied and each type has different purposes, for example, collecting gold will give the player the chance to buy another ship at later stages of the game, wheels will help him move the ship to avoid attacks, and cannon bombs will directly attack the enemy ship. In order to pass to the following level, players need to sink the enemy's ship collecting as many cannon balls as possible. Every level, which is set on different locations, will surprise the player with new adventures and challenges. Besides, the games has wonderful graphics accompanied by a great, epic soundtrack. |
