## What is Chain Link Pro?

Featured by Apple under "Hot New Games", "What's Hot" and "New and Noteworthy".  Was a top 10 Puzzle and Action game with over 400,000 downloads.  Also try the FREE sequel, Chain Link Pro 2!!!

"When something original turns up in the overpopulated match-three puzzler genre, it makes us sit up and take notice. Chain Link Pro is just such a game." - PocketGamer

•• Create long chains in this high adrenaline touch and drag action game. Chain Link Pro is simple to play, just glide one finger across the screen to link together matching colored shapes and navigate the chain into the center vortex to score. Forming longer chains increases the difficulty of avoiding collisions but also rewards you with more points.  

FEATURES TWELVE POWER-UPS
There are 17 power-ups a chain can collect to ensure survivability and maximize points, ranging from miniature chains to multi-colored chains to metamorphosis to chain invincibility.  Collect the special mystery power-up every 2 hours which offers amazing rewards - including a chance for an extra life to be used anytime you wish.

UNIQUE GAME MODES
• Hyper Chain - Score as high as possible in 60 seconds.  Contains faster spawning power-ups and multiplier awards.  This is super addicting, make sure you check it out first!
• Timed game mode - Race against the clock to earn enough points to add additional play time. Collisions subtract points but don't end the game.  
• Arcade game mode - Shapes fly across the screen and any collision will end the game.  Offers leisurely play with no time limits.
• Static game mode - Shapes are created on a static grid and don't move.  Clear the screen by chaining around the maze of other colorful shapes without getting too close. This mode gives the player three lives so one mistake won't end the game.
• Chain Pattern - Offers a different spin on game play - connect shapes in the same order as the pattern displayed at the top of the screen.
• Chain Entity - Collecting shapes will increase the size of the main shape and start pulling non-matching shapes towards it.  Score before your shape gets too big to control.

QUEST SYSTEM
Earn and complete quests for extra points and unlock new power-ups.

SCORE MULTIPLIERS
There are additional ways to earn additional points:

• Speedster - Make a chain fast. The first one is a 2x bonus but if you do more speed chains within a short period of time then the multiplier increases.
• Repeater - Score repeated times with the same type of chain.

FLUID CHAIN MOVEMENT
The chain will react based on how fast or slow you move your finger.  Optimized for performance to run smoothly.

OTHER AMAZING FEATURES

• Offers easy, medium and hard degrees of difficulty!  Each difficulty has a different amount of lives.

• Takes seconds to learn but hours to master.  Discover new tricks each time you play.

• A rich 3D sound experience when using headphones.

• High production value with beautiful graphics, advanced particle effects and fluid chain movement.

• Designed exclusively to take advantage of touch screen devices so controlling the game feels natural.

• Rock out to your own music from your media library as you play.

• Game auto-saves and auto-pauses whenever you get a call or switch to another app.

### 5/5 — Shape Sifter + Geospark + Monkeys in Space + ? = THIS!

*2012-01-06*

This latest version adds a cool "Bejeweled Blitz" like element of a quick 60 second timed game (Hyper Chain) with weekly resetting online scoreboards!

Even though VexorgX already covered some of this, I'll just reiterate it.

This game can be seen as taking elements of Shape Sifter (well, duh, it's the same dev), GeoSpark, and Monkeys in Space...but even then that is only a rough approximation as the concept of Quests and some of the Power-Ups are all new twists not seen in any of the previously mentioned titles.

Oh, and with the recent inclusion of the Static Mode it almost feels like you're playing the old Milton Bradley boardgame Operation (better keep that tail under wraps and insure if doesn't bump any of the crowded field of static shapes).

### 5/5 — geoSpark + Operation

*2011-12-17*

The new Hyper Chain is addicting fun!  Chain Link only takes a few seconds to learn how to play and those are the types of games I like. I want to start having fun as quickly as possible and this game delivers. This game takes the geospark formula and multiplies the fun factor by a million!  And the static game mode plays like the old board game Operation. I love the imaginative powerups in the game, especially the miniature chain.

### 5/5 — Complicated and fun

*2010-11-07*

I like games that require problem-solving skills and quick reflexes. This game does both. It's hard enough to keep my interest, but it's not so hard that it'd be frustrating. Nice graphics and sound, too.

### 5/5 — iPod touch 1st Gen 16gb iOS 3.1.3

*2010-10-21*

The game runs silky smooth on my touch! great sound great feel to the game it feels like the onscreen blocks have a weight to them. Very relaxing and yet exciting at the same time. Great App and one of my favorites overall! definitely worth the dollar!!

### 5/5 — Amazing & Addicting!!!

*2010-10-18*

I can't stop playing this game! I love the amazing bright colors and the slinging of the shapes. An I love that it pauses when you return your home screen so you can multitask and keep playing:)  It's amazing & I hope to see surprises in the updates :)

### 5/5 — Hard, addictive and very fun.

*2010-10-15*

This is the kind of game that once you start playing, you can't stop. 
The only con is that when the game starts, on my old iPhone 3G, the game lags a little. But this is the hardware of iPhone 3G that can't handle iOS 4 like newer models.

### 5/5 — IF U DONT HAV THIS APP NOW, GET IT, u WONT REGRET IT!!!

*2010-10-13*

Stupid free apps come and go, but this is the ONLY app that I've kept for over 3 years. it is an amazing app . Trust me get it and u won't regret it. Great graphics, great sound affects, great everything. To b honest this I'd the first app I've ever rated bcuz I just love it soo much. And trust me, u rnt hearing this from one of those ppl with every app on the app store. I am very harsh in criticizing apps and I only keep my top 10 fav apps. And look way was on top at #1 for the last 3 years . This one. I'm tellng u, GET THIS APP!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2010-10-12*

Graphics are very cool and the gameplay is very unique..awesome idea..had to make others d/l and now they love it too. I do wish it had one thing, I love the music it plays when u get the goal bonus and I wish it played that sorta music during gameplay all the time..sorta like lumines for psp where the music rocks along with the gameplay..just a suggestion..I think it would add to the game and also the option to turn music off for those that don't wish to hear, that's if the option is ever added. But over all I LOVE THE GAME, VERY ADDICTIVE!

### 5/5 — AmAziNG!!!!!!! Free, FuN, Killa Graphics

### 5/5 — Great dextrous gaming.

*2010-08-10*

This is a HUGE improvement over titles that have come before it. It's like GeoSpark, but with power-ups, multiple modes, and fantastic finesse gameplay. Throwing chains in from a distance is highly satisfying. Unconditionally recommended. 

PS- The in-game power-up purchase is merely a shortcut. All powers can be earned by fulfilling requirements.

If you're looking for a fun and challenging line drawing/avoidance game, Chain Link should be at the top of your list.
