Cure your "Election Fever" with a healthy dose of Election Crush, an election-themed Match 3 game. Most Match-3 style games are unbearably cutesy, forcing you to play with candies, gems and cartoon characters. Not here! Election Crush goes in an entirely different direction, and allows you to play with your 2024 presidential candidates! Select an image from your photos library to enter an independent candidate into the mix. Line up 4 or more of the same image to earn "campaign contributions", which can be "spent" to change the candidate's exposure. If you like the result of your election, share an image of the results with friends. This election is important, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun along the way!
