No sliding tiles
First let me say I was happy to see a new M3 game... But that thrill quickly left when I played this game... No sliding tiles so you are double clicking every move... You have to get a certain numberobject tiles for each round... and if you are lucky, you can clear all the gold squares for extra points... What the levels have to do with the story line I don't know... I just was not happy with this game.. sorry devs

Click and DRAG....
Firstly, I'd like to say that I play match 3 games as a way to relax by doing some mindless entertainment. Double-clicking on EVERY move is a tedious process, and I can honestly say that it irritated me so much that I literally only played for two minutes. Developers -- "click and drag" is a MUST for this type of game!
(Also, a "relaxed", untimed mode would be nice too).
I did get to the second level, which was showing some promise with "gold dust" and sparkling gems. Would have liked to see where that led, and also swapping tiles diagonally. However, I can't bothered with double clicking every move. Not going to purchase unless this title is patched for click-and-drag.

Match 3, Seizure prone patients stay away from this one! WAY too many sparkles and visual explosions.
Match 3 with a simple story line which may have improved with later levels but I was not going to be the one to find out. The opening screen movement of rows of emotion cubes moving up and down was enough to trigger nausea for me. I played only the first 3 levels of the game. I was hoping things would improve once away from the motion sickness of the opening screen but sadly I was wrong.The game was difficult to play with all the explosions and visual sparkles upon matching combinations. Sadly even turning the volume down to the lowest setting before silence was not enough and the visuals were way beyond over the top and I am still seeing flashing lights even as I type this several minutes later. Those sensitive to stobing lights or seizures be HIGHLY warned to stay away.

Not Bad
Its your typical match three game. It also has a card matching game that shows up every once in a while. The graphics for the match three game changes as you go along. The music also changes. There is a store where you can buy things to help you clear the board when you get stuck.
I like the game pace. For those who don't like timed games ...you can take your time its just that you will not get a lot of dust to buy stuff at the store. But I was playing with out much of the power ups anyways. I don't know if that will be a problem later in the game. The music is nice. The variety in game tiles keeps me wondering what is coming up next.
The only thing that I didn't like was that you had to click to move the tiles. Usually a lot of match 3 games you click and drag. Not this one you had to click on each tile that you are swamping out. So this might be too much clicking for some.
I think this is a buy for me. :)

Click and Drag..
People who keep saying this game needs click and drag have probably not played it, in this game you move pieces diagonally I would love to see how these people could possibly move the pieces diagonally without touching the other tiles, I am sure the developer thought of this problem and its why its not in this game.
Anyway I liked the game, I have not seen another match3 game with so many options to change how you play, diaglonal movement, lightning, explosions, luck boosters.
Please give it a try and actually play it rather than missing it because of 'no slide no buy'..

Fun game in spite of needing to double-click
I've played this game for over 2 hours and can't stop. Yes, the basic mechanic is clunky -- no ability to slide tiles -- but the game has a lot going for it. There is basic matching, tile breaking, ice smashing, and bombs as well as more time earned by good matches. That's just the basics. Then you get emoticons that you match to earn spells, which are differnt types of mega-bombs. The game mechanics are not well explained, and there are no hints, so some will really enjoy getting no tutorial boxes forced on them! You can learn what you need to know, though, if you read the upgrade description in the store. You get a store visit every few levels.
You can earn three stars per level. One is for gathering all of the types of tokens stated as needed, one is for doing it without running out of time, and one is for smashing all the gold tiles. The level ends when you have either run out of time or gathered all of the required tokens. Even if you have time left after getting all the tokens, you will not be able to keep trying to get all of the gold tiles, so this leaves room for some strategy. Unless you fail to get all the tokens, fail to get all the tiles AND run out of time, you cannot lose a level, you just get fewer stars. I am a very slow matcher due to arthritis, and I have yet to lose a level.
There is a regular "memory tiles" mini-game, which is not terribly interesting, but gets the player who is good at it extra cash for powerups. The mini-games are skippable. The main levels may be skippable also, as there is a skip button, but I have not tried that.

Not your typical Match-3
This game is not your typical match 3 but I mean that in a good way, after playing a few levels and getting the diagonal power up, it became a different game almost, I was seeing ways to make matches that just werent possible before, the cheery music also helped and the colorful, but not kiddie graphics are a blast.
If you like your match3 games to have some actual strategy then this is for you.
Only downside is the storyline which does not matter (to me atleast)
A buy from me!

Lighthearted but fun
I liked the cheeryness of this game, the faces are funny and the matching pieces are easy to see (I mean easy to tell apart)
If you like your match-3 games over the top with some unique abilities, give it a try.
Just turn your sound down, the explosions really ARE explosions!

I wanted to like this game, but.....
Three problems
Like others said, no slide. You click on the pic and click to move it.
Problem 2: No untimed mode.
Third problem: You can't go back if you don't get three stars on a level.
It's cute. But not cute enough to make up for above.

Promising but...
I just have one comment > No Drag... No Fun!
I mean you spent months developing a game and you broke it with this small thing!
I wonder if the game makers play this game themselves?
