As I'm the author of this game my opinion is quite high ;) This game has been written to give to match3 lovers something really new, a really original gameplay designed to challenge the player.

Writing a match3 game nowadays is not simple: the market has already seen so many variations! We do love this genre so we decided to change the rules introducing a brand new way to play a match3: I called it Mary's because my wife (Marina) is the proud author of this gameplay.

In the Mary's mode the game starts picking a random position on the board and that is the piece that the user shall move to make a match. The match can be realized everywhere on the board, bearing in mind that the chosen location will be the new starting point. In this way the gameplay is more intriguing and challenging.

TO make the game not too hard for young player we added a few bonuses earned collecting points and matching a given number and shape.

The game's theme is "the Planets and their Mythology". Each level is tied to a planet, including the Sun and the Moon, considered planets in the Mythology. So there are 10 levels (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) in 3 difficulty levels.

Each finished level unlocks a Planetary Gemstone, so there are 30 gemstones to be earned in the Mary's mode and 30 in the Traditional mode.

This first release has been published without the Level Intro screens because of a time constraint, but un update is already on its way and will be released in a week or so to the market. It will also deliver more board schemes to surprise the player even more (the schemes are picked at random by difficulty) and the visibility of the golden tiles has been improved.
