Angry Birds Match vs Fossil Hunters
Angry Birds Match
Angry Birds Match adds a different twist to the usual slingshot-based gameplay that the Angry Birds franchise is incredibly renowned for. In this brand-new spin-off, Rovio delivers a whole new match-3 adventure where you'll not only need to organize the Hatchlings' party but also to protect it from the mischievous pigs. Mix and match up tons of cakes and party decor to solve the many and varied puzzle levels available. You can also bring out the big boys a.k.a. the Angry Birds like Red, Chuck, and Bomb with a match-4, and use explosive Boosters to clear the toughest levels. The best part of this game though, aside from the fact that you can play this game completely offline, is definitely the crazy-cute Hatchlings that you can collect. You can even visit them and put on the new outfits you've unlocked!Angry Birds Match may have done a complete 360 on the iconic gameplay that had made the franchise famous, but this isn't exactly their first attempt at doing so - There's an Angry Birds-themed racing game called Angry Birds Go! after all. That being said, this new game does help Rovio experiment with various other game genres just to see which new field they can expand the franchise into... and apparently, the casual match-3 genre is a pretty good bet.
Fossil Hunters
Fossil Hunters is a cute anime-like action-adventure game where you play as an archeologist who has been selected to join an elite team of your peers. However, you arrived on the excavation site only to find that everyone else has gone ahead without you and that they have gotten themselves stuck down there somehow. Now, you will have to descend through the many levels of excavation floors in order to save them.Each floor is sectioned off by a mysterious force field which prevents you from immediately descending to the lowest level. Instead, you will need to solve what seems to be a "fossil jigsaw puzzle" by sloting in fossil fragments that you find by clearing away dirt. The game ramps up the difficulty soon after by introducing landslides and weird little creatures whose favorite food is apparently the fossils you excavated. These creatures are afraid of lights though, and as such, you can purchase and place excavation lamps around the work site to deter any creatures from gobbling up the fossiles you've fixed into place... or you can just hit them to scare them away... you know, whichever works best for you!
Fossil Hunters is also a co-op game as well, allowing up to 4 players to play together. If this sounds just like the sort of casual adventure game you enjoy, make sure to check out the game on Steam!
