Candy crush with a plot

To start with, you are introduced to the story, which involves the elements running amok in a magical world. We are told to restore peace to each element, earth, wind, fire, and water. On the menu screen we can see all the levels represented by books and gems and therefore get an idea of how long this game is going to be. The game reminds me of the free IOS matching games, but with a bit more effort put into it. Therefore, I think it is kind of worth buying if you are into that kind of games. If you are not though, I would not recommend buying this.
I felt the introduction to be boring. It shows the whole game from the get-go, and there are no surprises along the way. Then again for a game like this, you would not expect much more than that. I still felt like they should either have focused more on the story or less, since it keeps dumping lore on you, and you quickly forget there is a story all together.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is split up into 3 different games, where one acts as the main game, while the others are mini games. The main game is very simple, match colored blocks in a chain, to make sand disappear underneath the blocks. When the sand is gone, the water you need to get to the end of the stage can continue to flow. After you let the water flow to the end, you win the level. The gameplay is really relaxing and well made, since you can connect more colors to make bigger combos. That can be so satisfying
The levels have different obstacles along the way that can block the way to completion, these obstacles is for example rocks that can´t be passed by without power-ups.
The levels are getting harder along the way, but you also unlock power-ups, that will help you to remove obstacles and reach the goal. The power-ups fells really overpowered at times and can easily make the game a win for you nearly every single time. This was a huge letdown for me, since I never really felt challenged. The powerups can be things like changing around blocks and blowing up paths.
The two mini games included are done, to unlock new levels. The first one is a "spot the difference" game, where you click a place on a picture, to spot the flaw on the other picture.
The other part is a "find the objects" game, where you must spot things hiding in the background. All the games are controlled by simple mouse-clicking., and it fells rather slow and now and again. The overall games are not boring as such, but it quickly gets repetitive.
Visuals:
The game looks ok, but I really did not expect anything brilliant to be honest. The overall visuals in-game are pretty fluid and looks fine. But when you do anything outside the main game, the graphics fells weaker and blurrier. It`s hard to explain, but I felt there was something off.
Sound:
The music is ok in this game. I felt it was a nice thing to include, and the different themes are not that bad. Other than that, there are not much to say to the sounds other than the start theme will blast your speakers out, it is so loud!
Story:
So, the story is basic as said, clear all levels to control all elements. The boring part is that the story really has no twists and turns, instead it feels like it only is there to give you a reason to why there is 4 main levels.
The other mini games really have some cool story. Not so much the hidden object part. But when you complete the spot the difference game. You see the real picture and get the lore of the character on it. This was some interesting reading, and felt like a nice inclusion to the game, and the lore of the established world. I would just wish they used these characters and made the game a bit more alive.
But this is also where I do not really understand why they would create so much lore to a matching game. it feels unnecessary.

Conclusion:
The game is far from a masterpiece, and it really is just another time killer game. This does not mean I dislike the game at all, I am just saying you can find better games of this type out there. I completed the story and it really is just a congratulations screen and nothing more. But if you are looking for a simple game to sit down and play, this one could be a nice choice.
