Today's game for Club Members, tomorrow's game for all.

You can download The Spell here.

Quote:
Evil manifests in many forms and appears when you are least prepared!

While seeking shelter from a dark and violent storm, two people stumble upon an obscured old house nestled in the blackest recesses of an overgrown forest. Desperate to get out of the rain, the two approach to seek temporary shelter. Soon, the pair becomes aware of sinister forces at work in the house and its mysterious owner. They become trapped. To escape they'll have to collect different components, make magic potions and use supernatural abilities to fight back against dark magic, rescue people imprisoned in the house and defeat the evil witch!

Cleverly crafted hidden object scenes
Bonus levels with increased difficulty
Beautiful graphics
7 useful super abilities
96 levels (with a bonus)


As always, please remember to come back and tell us what you think.

Happy gaming! witch

Thanks, Marian. Sounded really good and I took a peek. But it has "timed" content so I had to leave it.
I am hopeless with timed hidden object searches eek

Too bad - that is going to limit the audience with that design decision. But thanks for letting us know. wave

This game was brutal in my opinion. I have not played a timed match 3 game before and I hope I don't ever feel like playing this one again! lol

I finally beat it tonight after playing almost every day since the beginning of June. There are 30 bonus rounds. Number 30 about killed me. My arm and neck have been sore for a month trying to complete this round.

Whew.

Wow - I had no idea you were still playing this. I see you are just as persistent with match-3 games as you are with adventure games. Congratulations on finishing! bravo

My favorite timed match-3 game is Caribbean Hideaway, but it's best we don't talk about that. lol

Hm. 100 timed levels. I may have to try this game. I know you mentioned it before but I didn't look at it until now. I do like pirate themes for some reason. pirate

It starts out in a relatively serene way, but the last 15 levels or so are absolutely brutal. The Big Fish forum is filled with people upset that they are unable to finish the game.

And that's my final warning. I have played and finished it about 4 or 5 times now, just to prove to myself that I didn't win through some fluke. laugh

A fluke ??

I think MY fluke in those circumstances would be the avoidance of a nervous breakdown lol

I've been replaying this game and enjoying it much more this time around now that I have a bit more experience at it. lol

That's great. And what with having finished Caribbean Hideaway, you can pretty much take on any match-3 game now. yes

I can't ever tell by looking at them if I would like them or not though. Most of them don't look that good. duh

It's not always easy for me to tell whether they are good or not. Unlike HOPAs, I usually try the demo first with match-3 games. Another good timed one is Cradle of Rome, if you haven't tried that already.

I have not tried Cradle of Rome. I'll look into it. Thanks Marian.

And yes, I can see where a demo would be good for these games. Might have to look into doing that also.

Oldbroad, I just thought of three match-3 games that provide some interesting variations (all by the same developer):

MatchVentures
Silver Tale
Runefall


I've been playing MatchVentures today. You might want to check out one or more of these, if you haven't already.

I will check them out Marian. Thank you very much. I totally trust your judgment on these Match 3's.

You are welcome. There are so many match-3 games that it's pretty easy to overlook some of the really good ones.

Have fun Marian. The level I had the most problem with is the last one of the regular game and then the last one of the bonus level but that one wasn't quite as bad.

It's not as nice of a game as Caribbean Hideaway but I still enjoyed it. I hope you will also! Keep me posted. cat

I'm moving along nicely. I was too tired last night to play a HOPA so played this for a couple of hours instead. So far, so good. smile
