"Cute Macarons are ready for you to choose! Tap to select a macaron from the top of the box. Once selected, the macaron is ready to be moved. Tap an empty box or a box with the same macaron on top to stack them together. Your goal is to fill the boxes with matching macarons. Every 20 levels, you can take on a special challenge to unlock background images. Win the challenge, and you'll get to select a cute girl as your game background! With 1,000 levels ready for you, the fun never ends. Need more levels? Don’t worry—I’ve got you covered. Apple Game Center is useful for restore purchases.
