Pirates! The match-3 is an epic sea-faring jewel-matching adventure. With stacks of levels spread over two complete worlds there is loads of fun to be had here.

You're probably all familiar with the concept of a match-3 game, and Pirates! has this down perfectly. But it then introduces lots of pirate related game types. From digging for buried treasure, to cracking open barrels of rum, there are game modes galore, each of them more challenging than before.

Some levels are set purely against the clock and others are more puzzle-like and have you completing a challenge within a set number of moves. These are by far the hardest and I often found myself failing a level with just 1 match left to get!

From the animated title page, to the exploding treasure, as you'd expect the graphics are top-notch. And the audio has a suitably scurvy ring to it, with jaunty little ditties that wouldn't sound out of place on Blackbeards ship.

I ended up losing well over an hour to this game in a single sitting and will gladly come back for more. It's available to play on Famobi and also to download for iOS (wrapped in Cordova)
