Candy Crush Saga vs Victoria
Candy Crush Saga
Candy Crush Saga is one of the world's most popular and widely-played casual match-3 puzzle game (or perhaps even just "game") that you can play on either your mobile or your PC. Developed by King, the game offers plenty of challenging puzzles, mainly in the form of annoying blockers and level goals, despite its seemingly simple "match-3 to clear" game mechanics. No matter which gender you are and which age range you fall into, Candy Crush Saga has been reeling in players from either side of the aisle for years. If you haven't already, you should really give this game a try. Don't be that one fella who has been living under a rock all these time!Victoria
Victoria is a horror-themed match-3 adventure game that begins with a tragic story. The protagonist in this game, Victoria Miller, lost her husband and two children in an incident involving an aggressive poltergeist. Driven by her bitter need for revenge, she decided to pick up the ancient art of hunting supernatural beings and track the poltergeist across the United States in hopes of slaying it.At its core, Victoria is a pretty standard match-3 puzzle game where you’ll need to make matches of 3 or more in order to remove the items from the playing area. Most levels require you to clear away blue tiles by matching over them but sometimes, you may be asked to make specific matches in order to use the many weapons that will eventually be available to you against the supernatural creature you’ll be fighting. However, what allows this game to stand out from the usual match-3 games out there is the creepy atmosphere it provides and the occasional jump scares that's intended to give you a solid jolt from time to time.
Overall, when it comes to immersion, Victoria hits the nail on the head. However, despite the supernatural-fighting bits, the gameplay in this game can be rather simplistic, and after some time, rather mundane. That said, considering that true horror-themed match-3 games can be pretty rare, Victoria might just fit snugly into the gaming niche it is obviously designed for.
