Artifact Quest 2 - Match 3 Puzzle

Casual-challenging Match 3 game. 3 different puzzle styles- you do not get to choose which puzzle style you play, the game alternates between them in a set manner. Relaxed Mode has no timer, Regular Mode has a timer and time bonus associated with it (more challenging). There is no Steam Achievement for playing in timed mode- so the choice is purely up to you. Your main goal is to earn coins to buy buildings to restore a destroyed village. To get 3 stars on each level, you need to fill a meter in the upper left corner of the screen to light up the stars. It's more about making more matches or larger matches to fill the meter faster. There is no shuffle option or power-ups to buy- you get one power-up on each level that fills up as you make matches, and the game automatically reshuffles if you are out of moves (with a somewhat annoyingly long pause before it reshuffles). Graphics are a bit childish and basic, but IMHO, they are fine for a game like this. Music and sound fx are basic and what you will find in other Match 3 puzzle games. The story is basic and not deep- but it's a Match 3 game, not a narrative-driven RPG. [b]***Accessibility***[/b] Very few settings in the Options…

A nice match 3 game -- 3 different types of match 3 games -- Game is set on a remote island -- the game earns points & those points convert into homes for the island people, businesses etc. I played halfway & lost interest in the game. I'm sure the island will be great after the game is 100% finished.

The puzzles are quite good, pleasant to play when you have nothing to do, or ur just bored

Video: https://youtu.be/3U_fS3gK0IA I have a fondness for Match 3 games. The simplicity is nice, although I'll admit it's often unlikely I'll actually play a game like this to completion. While I enjoy the matching elements, they don't often manage to fully capture my attention and after a certain amount of time I opt to move elsewhere. Not the game's fault, I just have a limited attention span and often find myself wanting to do something else far quicker than I ought to. Unless it is a spreadsheet. Spreadsheets are life. Anyway, the game's a typical Match 3 game with the kind of casual storytelling you'd find a decade ago on your Mom's computer as she tried to capture farm animals for Facebook clout. I think that's kind of the appeal. It's chill, incredibly casual, and maybe reminds you of a family member that used to play games like this. Or maybe you just like matching things. The sky is the limit for your reason, I suppose. Graphically it's nice, nothing that really stands out and makes the game feel unique. But it is pleasant. Music is nice and chill too, and the voice actress for Jess did a fantastic job. There are also some gameply variations so you get a mix…

50 levels with a mix of three different gameplay styles: * Match-3 - Match three same objects. * Collapse - Accumulate the same objects as much as you can. * Puzzle - Match the dropping item with the silhouetted shape on the tile. It's a casual game and not for someone looking for challenges, but if the timed mode is still too challenging for you, you can switch to relaxed mode. Changing the mode won't affect your progress toward unlocking the achievements. Every finished level will be rewarded with money, a gem, a gold bar, a pearl, or the ancient artefact's missing piece. The earned coins are to use to rebuild the village with new facilities. You can replay those levels if you can't get three stars or probably missing certain items to unlock the achievement. I wonder if I'm the only one who needs to spend additional time replaying some levels to find the missing pearls after finishing the entire game with three stars in all levels. There isn't much challenge in the game, but what I like about this game is the mixture of different puzzle styles. Most games only have match-3 in all levels. The various gameplay reduces the boredom in your journey to finish 150 levels.

Excellent! Addictive and relaxing with very beautiful graphics.
