Flowers Story: Fairy Quest

The Good
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.

The graphics are great 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 flavor 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.

The Bad
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. :(

The Bottom Line
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.
