Solid Game

Really solid match-3 game.
Iron Directive stands out with its visuals, sound and vibration affects. It’s easy to pick up, but the levels still have enough challenge to keep it interesting. The gameplay is really smooth also.

It’s been a good go-to when I’ve got a few minutes to kill, and I keep coming back to it. Definitely worth checking out if you like puzzle games.
