Gobstoppers is an addictive matching puzzle game! There are three fun versions: In Classic mode, match three or more shapes to remove them from the board. Longer paths get your more points, and if you clear the board you will double your points! In Multi mode, you can match by color OR by shape. Looking for two different types of matches is a great workout for your brain, and trying to find the longest path can be a real challenge! In Maze mode, there is a single chain that uses all the shapes. Find it to win! Each mode comes in two levels. The first level is free, and a harder paid level is available to give advanced players an extra challenge. Game Center leaderboards let you compete against your friends or the world.
