✦ AI summary

Gingerbread Story is a match-3 puzzle game that players largely view as an inferior Candy Crush clone with aggressive monetization mechanics and progression that becomes frustratingly difficult. While some acknowledge it has colorful visuals and decent mechanics initially, most criticize it for feeling like a stripped-down mobile game that quickly devolves into a grindy, pay-to-win experience with limited moves and constant requests for payment rather than offering genuine enjoyment.

This bejeweled game is almost identical to the extremely popular game CandyCrush. You have a predefined number of moves in which you need to score as many points as possible. You do this by matching 3 or more of the same candy together in a straight line. By combining 4 or more of the same candy you'll get special candies. These special candies have a big range of effects, such as clearing whole rows, exploding, destroying all candies of the same color across the board, and similar. You can even buy special items to help you clear your level. It all sounds and looks really easy, but I can assure you the game becomes more difficult as you progress through it. Gingerbread Story has 80 colorful, bright and very challenging levels. By clearing a level you'll earn coins and with those you can buy power-ups/special items to make clearing the next levels easier. I have had a pop up where you are able to buy coins with real money, however, in-game transactions do NOT work. It is impossible to buy coins with real money, and in all honesty that was a big plus to me! This game is relaxing, fun to play, addictive and at times highly frustrating. It might not be the best bejeweled game …

Gingerbread Story is a mediocre match 3 game and really isn't fun. It's a wannabe Candy Crush with 0 appeal. There are many more match 3 games out there that are a lot more fun.

It starts as an ok match 3 game but it quickly turns into a too hard, non enjoyable hard mode mess and I have this suspicious feeling this was originally a mobile game. Works fine on Linux with Proton (Proton 4.2-1).
