Matchjong!
Read full descriptionHide full description
Matchjong is a relaxing card-matching puzzle you can play at your own pace. Cards are stacked on the board in a Mahjong-style layout. Tap the ones on top and matching items drop into their bags. Fill a bag and it clears. There's no clock and nothing chasing you. The levels are short, so the game fits into a coffee break, and you can stop whenever you want. How it works: - Tap an available card to move it into a matching bag - Each bag needs three cards to complete and collect - Cards with nowhere to go yet wait in the tray below - If the slots fills up, the round ends, so think about which cards to clear - Finish every bag to beat the level What you get: - Beautiful cards: cold drinks, fruit, flowers, and a few friendly faces - Boosters for tight spots: add a slot, add a box, or clear the tray - New obstacles later on, like iced cards and chains, so it doesn't get repetitive - Short levels that suit a quick session or a longer sit-down If you like quiet puzzle games you can pick up and put down, this one's for you.
