Neverland Treasure

I've played the first 70 levels of Neverland Treasure as of writing this reviews but I doubt my decision will change. This is a poorly ported mobile game that brings absolutely nothing new to the table. There are hundreds of similar games on the app store with better design. All of the character art is stolen from popular animated movies (Disney's Pitar Pan, Madagascar, Rio), the levels feel the same and the "story" is not only horrible (I have the feeling that it was written based on the available art they had and not vice versa) but also it's in the wrong order. After most of the levels you get an image with a character dialog but it often makes no sense and it's simply inconsistent. If those were the only problems, I would have given a positive review, as I have indeed played it a lot and it wasn't that bad of an experience, but there are game-breaking bugs- from time to time I would get invisible walls in the puzzle that are not supposed to be there.

I can no longer recommend this game. After playing it enough, I see some issues that I just cannot ignore. First off, it will require you to collect special items, like 13 cheesecakes with strawberries OR 18 chests with locks. However, it does NOT generate enough of them during the level to meet that goal. While you can spend gold for an extra 20 moves, I do this frequently as many levels have this issue. With other games if you finish with moves left, it converts those moves to power-ups, and sets them all off. Those points count toward your star points (to get three stars). This does all of that EXCEPT none of the cascading matches from the added power-ups count towards your 3 star points. It generates gold tiles, but you don't even get that. In fact, not all of the power-ups are triggered! What is the point of all of that if spending the effort to have remaining moves doesn't count for anything. It's very tough on certain levels to get three stars because of all of this. Also, I don't see any responses from the Devs on the forums. In light of all of this, I have to change my score to "Not Recommended" UNTIL these things are fixed. ----- Original Review ----- It's an enjoyable match three game. It uses bright colors, adorable characters, and lots of different tiles for matching. Also, getting all three stars for a level is very challenging. While there is nothing new here, it will still scratch the match 3 itch.
