Sorry. Found the download link in my Spam box. I'm pretty tired of Match 3 games, but I this isn't just a Match 3, it's a very cute little game with loads of variations. Glad I installed it, and thanks Toomky and GOTD>

Downloaded it back in 2007. A favorite, still. It isn't ONLY a match-3 game, though predominately. It is varied enough to require a bit of strategic skill and to hold interest.

Tried to download, but do not use Facebook, so went the email route. The email didn't arrived after 15 minutes, so I tried to download again, but a message tells me that the download link has already been sent to my email. Anyone else having similar trouble?

An excellent little game! It's a Match-3, which is a favourite of mine, and the colours and artwork are delightful. Everything is big enough to see, and control is quite straightforward. I have only had time so far for a quick test, but I shall definitely be keeping this one and exploring its hidden depths. (Those hidden challenges are further along the road than I have reached so far.) I like the fact that you are in control not only of moving the flower in question, but also in which direction it will travel - but if you click the wrong way, it will get back to the place you wanted it to go to anyway in another click or two.

I'm on a Win 10 laptop, and have not (yet) met the 3D Acceleration problem - download and installation both moved swiftly and without hiccups, which is another bonus. But really, I would recommend this game to just about anyone. It's quick, bright and colourful, and a very nice companion to a tea break. Or several. A pleasant way of spending an afternoon which is too soggy and cold for gardening!

Thanks again, as ever, to GGAOTD, Toomky Games and of course - to Whiterabbit. Glad to hear you've got your box working properly again!

This is a very good game and i am definitely keeping it. It is a match 3 but you have to complete different tasks to complete each level. There are different levels of difficulty so this should suit people who want a relaxed game play and those who want a more challenging game.

"This application requires 3D Acceleration to run"

...I have no idea how to fix this ??

Personally I think it's one of the better match three games still available. It's old but still looks decent, plus it has lots of variety within the game as well as some original idea's. I remember playing this the first time it was given away. It was the second game created by the developer who updated the first version after lots of feedback from the giveaway community and offered free upgrades to all. There were over 20 different versions created, all of which we had access to. It's definitely a keeper and I'd list it among my top 10 favourite match three games.

The Game

I posted the following 13 years ago:

There's a lot more to this game than just matching three flowers. There are new things introduced virtually every level. For example in the second level you have to complete three orders for flowers in specific arrangements and in later levels you have to clear away trapped flowers to release a flower fairy. There are also different games to complete such as matching pairs and collecting falling flowers of specific types.

One of the several ways this differs from your standard match three game is that you can set up groups by rotating series of flowers even if it doesn't make a set of three or more, though be wary of rotating the same flower too often, as it will fade then die, making it impossible to get rid of.

The graphics are excellent (despite this being well over a decade old) and the game play is even better. There’s a story running through the game that interrupts the flow of the game a little, but I’m all for this as it adds some flavour to the game. You can pause the game by clicking on the menu at the top right of the playing field, where you are given the option of saving the game. The game is fully mouse controlled and it’s definitely suitable for children and adults of all ages, though I think some of the games may be a little too fast for the younger child. You have two modes to play with the Campaign and the Survival game, though to play the survival game you must first play the campaign mode. I only played four levels and the survival mode remained locked. :(

Despite having a lot of match three games, this one is worth buying if you miss the opportunity to get it today; so well worth the 8.5 out of 10 I give it for family fun.

There were a lot of people who got errors when running the previous giveaway, which was apparently solved (for some at least) by updating their graphic card drivers. If you get any issues with today's game try going into compatibility mode and changing some of the settings, for example try running it in 640 x 480 resolution via the compatibility app. It ran with no issues on my Win 10 Pro computer.

I'll post some images and details alter. Computers been reset and now is fully functional again.
