MATCH ORBS. COLLECT DRAGONS. TAKE THEM INTO BATTLE. What if the Orbs you collected in a Match-3 puzzle game could be used to build your own team of Dragons? That's the idea behind Orb Match: Dragon Puzzle. Solve Match-3 puzzles, collect elemental Orbs, and use them to Conjure and Evolve Dragons. As your collection grows, choose four of your strongest Dragons to form a Wing and take them into the Battleground for turn-based battles. It's two kinds of gameplay brought together in one game. What you earn in the puzzles helps you build your Dragon collection, and the Dragons you collect become your team in the Arena. **MATCH-3 PUZZLES** Match colorful Orbs, set off combos, and use power-ups to clear challenging puzzles. Every puzzle gives you another opportunity to collect the Orbs you need for your Dragons. **COLLECT AND EVOLVE DRAGONS** Visit the Rookery to Conjure new Dragons, evolve your favorites, and build your collection. Each Dragon has its own pixel-art design, elemental strengths, and abilities. There are themed Dragon collections to discover, with more Dragons and special events to look forward to. **BUILD YOUR FOUR-DRAGON WING** Put together a team of four Dragons and enter the Battleground. Battles are turn-based, and you'll need to think about your Dragons' abilities and elemental advantages to take down enemy teams. You're battling computer-controlled opponents, not other players. **KEEP BUILDING YOUR COLLECTION** Complete Daily Bounties, earn rewards, level up, and use the resources you collect to strengthen your Dragons. There's always another puzzle to solve or another Dragon to work toward. **A LITTLE RETRO, A LOT OF DRAGONS** Orb Match combines classic Match-3 puzzles with retro-inspired pixel-art Dragons and turn-based battles. It's free to play on iOS, whether you've got a few minutes for a puzzle or you're ready to work on your next Dragon. Collect. Evolve. Battle.
