Lanternfin: Ocean Match 3

Finn the lanternfish has lost his light. Dive with him from the sunlit shallows to the deepest abyss, one match at a time. Lanternfin is a swap-and-match puzzle with two twists: ocean currents that change which way everything falls, and darkness that hides the deep reef until you light it up. HOW IT PLAYS • Swap two neighboring sea creatures to line up 3 or more • Clear the level's goals before your moves run out • Leftover moves become Lantern Bursts for bonus points • Earn up to 3 stars and a haul of pearls on every level RIDE THE CURRENT The current is your gravity. Creatures can fall down, up, left or right, and new ones drift in from the opposite edge. In deeper waters the current turns every few moves: watch the countdown on the badge and plan your cascades around it. LIGHT UP THE DARK Deep cells are dark. You see only a dim silhouette of the creature inside, so its shape is always readable. Make a match on or next to a dark cell to light it, and bring the whole reef back to life. SPECIALS AND COMBOS • 4 in a row makes a Ray that clears a whole row or column • An L or T shape makes a Bloom that clears a 3×3 area • A 2×2 square makes a Dart that swims to a goal and clears it • 5 in a row makes a Glowpearl that clears every creature of one color Swap two specials together for huge combos, all the way up to a Glowpearl pair that clears the entire board. FINN'S LANTERN Every creature you clear fills Finn's lantern. When it is full, Finn swims across the board and turns creatures into specials. A big glowing moment in every level. INFINITE LEVELS, 8 WORLDS Every world is one step deeper and teaches one new idea: Sunlit Shallows, Coral Gardens, Kelp Forest, Shipwreck Cove, Twilight Reef, Moon Jelly Drift, Midnight Abyss and Ember Vents. Then the dive goes on forever through deeper and deeper tiers. Every level is the same for every player. REEF HAZARDS AND GOALS Chip through layered coral, free creatures caught in nets, and let pearls ride the current to the far edge. Goals include collecting creatures, lighting dark cells, breaking coral and delivering pearls. BOOSTERS AND DAILY CHEST • Trident smashes one tile • Whirlpool shuffles the board • Tide Turner turns the current right now Open the daily chest for pearls and boosters, and keep your 7-day streak going. DEEPEST DIVE Every level takes you 10 meters deeper. Climb the Game Center leaderboard and see who dives the deepest.
