SokoMatch: Lizard Saga

[b]5/10[/b] Match 3, but it's a Sokoban. [b]What is it:[/b] A sokoban game mixed with match-3, with the goal being to eliminate all gems from the level by matching them in a row. At first there are only 3 gems of each color, but later levels can have 4, 5, or even 6 of a kind, so an extra challenge is to not match 3 too early and be stuck with 2 unmatchable gems. The game is nice enough, a short and calm experience for those that don't want a challenging game. It's rather easy and repetitive. [b]How hard is it:[/b] Easy. [b]How long is it:[/b] 40 levels, doable in about an hour. Must be completed in order. [b]Level design:[/b] Basic, a decent simple sokoban but nothing stands out. [b]Quality:[/b] Not good enough. Unlimited undo, proper level select, progress achievements, very few settings. No cloud save, no progress reset, non rebindable controls, no mouse support in the UI, both keyboard and controller prompts displayed in the UI, 3D when it doesn't have to be, slowish movement with non-cached inputs, distracting floaties all over the screen, slow fadeout reset, useless "Press start" screen that leads to the menu. [b]Worth the price:[/b] Maybe, if you're looking for a short and calm game. [b]Most positive aspect for me:[/b] Interesting combination of match 3 and sokoban. [b]Most negative aspect for me:[/b] Too easy. [b]Also consider:[/b] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1400480/Lost_Gems/?curator_clanid=25928931]Lost Gems[/url], similar but with more mechanics and bigger levels. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/471570/Grandpas_Table/?curator_clanid=25928931]Grandpa's Table[/url], an excellent game mixing match 3 and sliding.

You have to clear 40 levels by playing away all colored blocks by pushing them together in a line or hook. Moves can be undone. There is no penalty, no number of moves target. The levels are not too easy, which is nice. I finished them a first time in 2 hours. The music is not annoying, volume and effects can be adjusted as well as the resolution and screen mode. Too bad the movement is a little bit sluggish. I prefer being able to play fast. Apart from the fact I wished there were more levels, it's the only minor issue I had.

40 easy levels. Wish there were some harder ones. Giving positive because I liked the unique twist on Sokoban.

Sokoban X match 3

Nice little Match-3/Sokoban hybrid. Not too easy, but not too hard either... manageable, which is good for people like me because Sokoban usually makes me feel like an idiot by the 10th level.

Brilliant genre combination. Needs more levels though, Totally worth the $2.

Great puzzle game, recommended!

Worth every penny, really beautiful graphics, super nice soundtrack, great fun to play. I recommend!

Cute puzzle game. This is how I describe this game. Really liked the soundtrack and the puzzles difficult. 10/10

What with the level #34. Looks like mistake. Even if it would be only blue and red gems on the field the level can't be solved.
