Angry Birds Match vs Marvel Puzzle Quest
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.
Marvel Puzzle Quest
Marvel Puzzle Quest is a match-3 RPG that features the lineup of familiar and beloved superheroes from the insanely popular Marvel universe, including fan-favorites like Iron Man and Spiderman. The game even has a storyline to back it up - in this game, you will be sent on missions along with your team of three chosen superheroes Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. The missions usually require you to defeat all the enemies there by making matches and charging up your heroes' special abilities. Interestingly, the enemies can return fire in real time as well so time is of the essence when it comes to making matches and dealing damage.You can get new heroes or hero skills by collecting dropped comic book covers. These heroes can also be upgraded using special crystals, the ISO-100. For more abilities and heroes, you can purchase extra DLCs too.
Marvel Puzzle Quest is a game that contains the best of both worlds - an engaging and challenging gameplay that's simple to pick up along with a theme that almost everyone - and I daresay even for some DC fans - enjoy. Fans of Marvel or match-3 RPGs should definitely try this game.
