Overall wonderful match-3 game with many things to unlock, dampered by the monetization. I prefer buying games outright rather than constantly being poked for money, but there is no option to buy this game, so it's something you have to deal with. There are tons of events here. The pop-ups (for them) get annoying, but I like that they give you options. Energy cost to reward ratio for levels doesn't always make sense. If you like match-3 games, you could do much worse!

It's very slow. The movement of the pieces, the speed at which you move them, etc. It's too slow for me. The game initially looked lovely until I started playing. The appearance is mid at best & the story doesn't interest me in the slightest so I'm only scoring based on everything else. This isn't for me. I'm sure it's fun for others & that's fine but for me it's just entirely uninteresting 😐🤷

I love this game, but the latest update isn't it. The bonus panel should be smaller and farther off to the side so there are the old number of games to choose from on a level. And the lotus or bonus rewards should not be a force-collect. Let us collect when needed, especially time rewards. New graphics are nice, but the between-level layout is confusing.
