Animal Kingdom Match 3

Keep the animal blocks coming and the score climbing before the gauge on the left runs dry.

Animal Kingdom Match 3

Animal Kingdom Match 3 gives you a board of coloured animal blocks and a gauge that is always sinking. Putting blocks of the same colour into a series of three or more scores points and tops the gauge back up; leaving it too long ends the run. There are no levels to retry, so a session lasts exactly as long as you keep feeding it.

Played that way, the board becomes a rhythm problem rather than a puzzle. The temptation is to hunt for the biggest available series, but a run of quick threes usually keeps the gauge healthier than one impressive five found thirty seconds later. Experienced players alternate: bank a few fast clears, then spend the breathing room looking for something larger.

The art is warm and summery, and the animals are the only decoration — underneath it is a lean score attack, and it never pretends otherwise.

How to Play

  1. Swap two adjacent blocks to put three or more of one colour in a series.
  2. Watch the gauge on the left of the screen; if it falls too low the game ends.
  3. Bank quick matches when the gauge is low and hunt bigger series only when it is high.
  4. Play for the highest score you can reach before the run stops.

Tips & Tricks

Look at the two rows nearest the bottom before anywhere else. Clears there rearrange the most of the board, and on a game where the gauge never pauses, a move that gives you two more options is worth more than a move that scores well once.
