Amanda's Sticker Book

6 hours of torture! No, I did not like this match 3 game and had to force myself to finish it.] 1. First off the graphics look weird, especially the girl, Amanda, her face looks freaky. The icons were so detailed they were actually hard to match because I couldn't tell the difference between the Ice Cream Cone and the Ring. And I don't even know what some of them were. What's that horizontal blue and white striped thing? And that bunch of bubbles, what is it supposed to be? 2. Secondly the music is horrible. It's like bad elevator music or the stuff they play when you are on hold on the phone because your call is very important to them. 3. The Gameplay. Nothing really bad there except there's not much variation. There are some icons hidden behind ropes and you have to match it in order to break the ropes. Later there will be double ropes! It would have been nice to see wooden boxes that are cleared by matching next to them, or iced over icons to match, but no, all we get are ropes, ropes, ropes! It's especially difficult to make a match to a roped icon when it is near the top of the field. It's basically just make matches until you get lucky. 4. Special Items. The…

[h1]Not fun.[/h1] Amanda's pesky little brother has ruined her sticker book & it's now up to you to help her restore it to its original condition so she can enter some competition & hopefully win a prize! That's the premise of this game's story. You then slog your way through countless match-3 boards in order to collect candies, animals, & other objects to allow Amanda to buy upgrades that will help with the restoration process. Yes, the match-3 puzzles have nothing to do with the story as you can see. But more importantly, the gameplay just isn't fun. Aside from really boring and unsatisfying match-3 puzzles, the board tiles are difficult to see and jarring to the eye, the obstacles are not challenging but simply irritating and merely there to increase the player's grind (e.g. spiders), and as you progress, nothing really changes except for the fact that the boards get more grindy and annoying. There are far better match-3 games out there to occupy your time with, so skip this one.

The standard Match 3 casual game, but with a few of annoying trends that make me not recommend it as a game. I'll start with the positives- It's family friendly and there's some satisfaction over seeing your sticker book become prettier after meeting the goals for each upgrade. That part of it is enjoyable! The reasons I wouldn't recommend this to others, among all the other Match 3 games out there, are: - Spiders. Occasionally, random spiders will appear on the board and walk around, and you have to make a match that slides the block they're standing on to collect them, otherwise they put a web on a tile and run away. The issue here is that the spiders often appear where no matches can be made, so you're punished for something that you have no control over. Not only do you get the tile webbed, but you also need to collect a certain amount of spiders to unlock progression in the game. - Ropes. These are the standard tiles in Match 3 games that you have to 'unlock' before you're allowed to move them, by making matches with them. In this game, they're often placed in level layouts that are entirely frustrating to make any matches with. - Reliance on powerups. After mak…

its bad.. but.. it was cheap.. i guess

it very good

This is one of those games you buy in a bundle or on sale. Then you ask yourself why. It's obvious it's a port from the way your told to start the game, and it goes downhill from there. Elevator muzak that will have you muting it to search for a podcast. "Cute" elements like spiders that drop in only to slow your progress clearing the board. And that's this game's entire schtick, when it isn't interrupting a match with an annoying pop up to remind you of a tool or match or whatnot. It's wall to wall adorableness that would make a baby cry. There are better elements. Like when the game just let's you play a match 3 game without interrupting or suggesting a match by spinning two random tiles to swap that either don't match or would be a bad one. It's the kind of game you play when you don't feel like playing anything else, but can't bring yourself to read a book, or clean your home. Put on a podcast, mute the music, and you might get past the cute factor that just goes over the top.
