## What is GeoDrop HD?

Thanks for all the positive feedback. I love the following review. That's a great motivation to make more iOS games!
"I love a good match 3 game and this is a very good one at that. The game play is very strategic and the 3 game modes are all distinct and interesting. The graphics looks fantastic and the music is great to match. I was happy to kick in a dollar to get the extra music track and to disable the (very non-intrusive) advertisements. The game boosts complete Game Center support."

The new iOS puzzle game with the retro look and mega particles features brand new music tracks produced by Chris Huelsbeck. Get the Game now! 

GeoDrop HD offers a new challenge beyond the usual match-3 game mechanics! Here is the new challenge: Create clusters of blocks with the same color. 2 stars inside the cluster removes the cluster. Special blocks like bombs or joker helps you to accomplish this mission. To make the game harder: After some blocks new rows of blocks appear from the bottom of the playfield...

3 game modes:
CLASSIC: More and more colors, bombs and joker blocks - the full program!
HARDCORE: The purist mode for the Constructors' experts: Constant 4 colors - No special stones. But level rise is faster.
ACTION: Same as hardcore, but with 3 minutes time limit: For the little break in between.

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2025-03-02, version 1.61*

The only problem is it takes a long time if you are doing well and then to try and beat your score takes even longer but it is enjoyable

### 5/5 — Lovin it

*2018-07-04, version 1.61*

Nice simple concept nice simple game... kinda fits my personality

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2017-06-24, version 1.61*

Looks good and has a great soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck.  The gameplay is just too easy for me, which is a shame because this game has real potential

### 5/5 — An awesome game!

*2017-04-10, version 1.61*

I downloaded this game a few weeks ago, and it is pretty amazing!  If you like puzzles and challenges, you should download this game!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2016-01-05, version 1.50*

It's a real good game to take a few mins or more to occupy some down time. It does seem to score exact, I think. And I did manage to score 238,190. Don't know if that's good or not score wise. It does have a high score board. Definitely worth playing.

### 3/5 — Adverts

*2015-12-09, version 1.50*

Was good game now way to many adverts that pop up anytime during games

### 5/5 — This game is well cool

*2015-04-18, version 1.50*

I really like playing this game and it is very addictive it would be nice if it was optimised for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus.

### 5/5 — Really engaging game

*2015-02-10, version 1.42*

I come back to it all the time.  So simple yet great music, visuals, etc.  I wish there were slightly more star pieces so I could keep a long streak going in hardcore mode.  Overall a very neat game.  Kudos to the creator!

### 1/5 — Geodrop,

*2014-06-25, version 1.42*

Can't get a chance to see if this game is worthwhile because the ads are especially annoying. A few ads here and there, sure,but this is ridiculous! The ads pop up in the middle of a play. Most of the time playing the game is spent trying to exit ad sites. Can't someone come up with a better marketing ploy? The whole gaming scene is becoming less and less attractive considering pestering ads, cash grabs, and glitches.

### 5/5 — Such fun

*2014-04-08, version 1.42*

Didn't know I had this app. And now addicted to it. 

Such a cool time killer. No pressure just fun.
