Laruaville 5

completed all the levels in 26 hrs. was hoping to go back to play again with limited moves. but I was not able to play it again. disappointed.

"Laruaville 5" is a great match-3 game with unique mechanics and minigames (Mahjong, spot the difference and hidden object games). It runs flawlessly and it will stimulate your brain! A very tricky match-3 with power-ups and unique ways to solve the puzzles. Help the cute ghosts survive and build a boat to go back to the mainland after their ship sunk! The levels themselves are hard but leave an impression and above all they are fun. So you will be glad it wasn't a piece of cake that required no thinking and ended in 10 minutes. The visual effects, animations and music will help a lot in keeping you calm and focused on the task at hand. If you are stuck, you can use the hint system, which I find very good, comprehensive and helpful. On top of that, they have added a beautifully crafted grimoire as help. It will keep you busy for hours but without overstaying its welcome and you can always replay it due to its nature. Featuring different modes, minigames and building your town! One of the most fun and intriguing match-3 puzzle games out there. For more reviews, follow my curator https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44864435-Mewesome-Reviews/

This is the first Laruaville which has the "modern" feel of the Laruaville series: puzzle-M3 boards which can be solved in a few minutes if you plan your moves out, lots of gadgets to manipulate as a part of the puzzle solving process, and plenty of assorted minigames. I think there were 90 or maybe 91 levels, wasn't quite sure when I finished the game. The now-standard options of relaxed, limited moves, and timed modes to play in. Game mode can be changed at any time, and the moves counter has the "modern" Laruaville feel of being pretty tight (50-60 moves for the majority of levels). The timer has always been short in these games; doesn't seem like you ever get more than 3 minutes per level. The sort-of-pirate theme and story of reconstructing a town on an island in order to build a ship so the ghosts can sail to some other confines isn't bad; I've definitely seen worse storylines in the series. A mix of minigames has been brought in: solitaire, spot the difference, and hidden object scenes to replace what seemed like never-ending mahjong puzzles every 3 levels. Unfortunately, you don't get extra coins for playing the minigames this time, so they're just there for extr…
