5 Star Rio Resort

Starting a business is a difficult task, but it’s equally as difficult to continue a business started by someone else. Hence, many children around the world have to take over their parents’ affairs after their departure, and many times it doesn’t go very well. On the other hand, it’s all about how much effort you put into the whole thing, since hard work is always rewarded.

5 Star Rio Resort is a match-three game with puzzle elements in which you play the role of a young girl trying to follow in the footsteps of her father. The game feels and plays like a regular match-three flick, which means that you have to move colorful fruit around and get at least three of them in a row in order to remove them from the board and score points.

The story revolves around Lucy, the daughter of a hotel tycoon with luxurious resorts all over the world. Naturally, she wants to do the same, so she asks her father for the funds to build a resort in Rio. The budget she receives is far from enough, on the other hand, so your other task is to get the necessary currency in order to build various structures on the wonderful tropical island.

Each stage provides you with multiple objectives, although most of them basically resume to the same thing: clear the golden tiles. If you do not play in the relaxed mode you also have to finish everything before the time limit expires, which is yet another annoyance that increases the challenge. Sometimes you have to overcome obstacles in order to get to certain tiles.

As far as the graphic design is concerned, everything is as basic and as colorful as possible, but that’s to be expected in the genre. It’s nice that you also get to tackle the building aspect between the levels, not to mention the solitaire mini-games that pop up every now and again. There’s a jolly soundtrack that keeps you company over the course of the story.

Even if 5 Star Rio Resort is not exactly a revolutionary match-three game, you can still have a lot of fun with it if you are a fan of the genre. The flexible difficulty level should be able to accommodate everyone, be it a veteran or a complete beginner.
