Poorly made match 3

- chains punish the player
- power ups spawn randomly so there is 0 strategy possible other than starting a new save and not buying the bad ones.

Do not buy if you're looking for a decent match 3

Spooky Bonus is a Halloween themed match-3 that I like to play around spooky season. Unlike other match 3 games I've enjoyed, this one has stacking objectives that increase the difficulty throughout the game. For example, you might be tasked with clearing the board of gold tiles or matching a specific thing so many times. The shape of the board and the various 'obstacles' that appear in later stages force you to think on your feet in the game's 'timed' mode, which counts as a normal/hard difficulty. Fortunately you have a huge variety of bonus powers you can use to help get rid of obstacles while you play. Sometimes you will get frustrated with running out of time, but often the way forward is to cleverly make use of these powers.

I know it seems like one of those cheap cell-phone titles, but I've actually found a lot to enjoy here and the main game is pretty solid in terms of how much content it has. I don't know if it has much replayability beyond that, but I'm satisfied with what I've had so far, and all my hours as of this writing have been spent clearing the campaign (I'm not done yet). I was pleasantly surprised by this title, and recommend it to people looking for a match-3 title with some substance to it.
