YAMatch

Yet Another Match three - or YAM is a new take on the classic game. The key differences are that matching fruit are not automatically cleared and swaps that don't result in a match stay, allowing you to move fruit towards a match. This does cost a star - and if all stars are gone - it's a game over. But don't despair, it is possible to reshuffle the board by a long press, but that also costs a star. But hey, you get a bonus star for every level you pass with less than 20 swaps and if you pass a level with less swaps than last time. Swap fruits to match 3 or more in a row. Matching fruits are cleared only if a swap produces a match, sometimes you will need to swap two identical fruit to clear the match.ย You can make a swap that does not result in a match or long press to reshuffle. Both actions cost 1 star.ย If you lose all stars - the game is over. You get bonus stars for passing levels and for doing it with less swaps. Avoid top row. Good Luck!
