A fun, deceptively simple little game that rewards you for strategic thinking. Score points by removing groups of two or more same-colored tiles. The larger you can make a group before you remove it, the more points you score. Advance to another level by clearing enough tiles on the current board. The higher the level you get to, the more points you can rack up, but the more challenging the board becomes. That simple premise can keep you thoroughly absorbed. iMaki's tools let you make strategic decisions to keep a game going... as long as you don't use them up too soon or wait too long to use them. Plus: • Customize iMaki's appearance with different display modes and color palettes • Use tools to control your fate • Earn more tools with good moves • Play on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Cribbage Pegboard at Free against iMaki's $0.99. Cribbage Pegboard also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 5) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). iMaki's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 39 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
