Genre and what to do:
Puzzle. Magic Match: The Genie's Journey invites players to join Giggles in the magic adventure throughout mysterious lands of Arcania in order to re-incarnate Giggles into his impish personality. The main game concept remains the same as in original Magic Match, your task is to match three or more similar items and remove them from the board. A scroll in the left corner shows you numbers of different items which must be removed from the board. A level is complete when you remove all items from the scroll, before time runs out. You earn magic points by removing blue tiles to buy spells, which may be used to activate magic spells. There are three game modes: Timed, Timeless and Duel. In Duel Mode you compete with Giggles for better result, playing by turns. As you advance in the game new challenges, objects, bonuses and special items appear making game play diverse and captivating.
Style and atmosphere inside the game:
Magic Match: The Genie's Journey is an exciting sequel of popular Magic Match that features bright detailed graphics, diverse sound effects and relaxing Arabian music. One of the highlights of the game is Giggles, a funny creature which gives you pieces of advice throughout the game. Another highlight is trophy room where you can see your rank, statistics, awards and trophies that you have earned. More than that, as you play well you unlock five bonus games that bring additional variety to game play. All in all, though the game concept remains the same, the designers add variety of new features such as new spells, special items, and bonus games that make Magic Match: The Genie's Journey one of the most interesting and many-sided games of this genre, I recommend it to try to all players who want to get real fun and relax after a difficult day.
