The Voice from Heaven

There are countless stories about people who supposedly had phenomenal healing powers, although none of them are actually proven in any way. Even so, the subject is a common theme in many movies and video games, and especially in fantasy stories that feature healers as a core part of an army, regardless of what technique they use to achieve their goal.

The Voice from Heaven is a match-three game in which you get to hear the story of a healer girl who’s forced to go on a quest in order to put her powers to good use. The gameplay mechanics are the same as in most match-three games out there, with a few minor differences when it comes to how you approach the levels and a few other minor gimmicks.

As mentioned before, the story puts a girl by the name of Aurora under the spotlight. She was found by an old woman in the forest, who also discovered Aurora’s healing powers. After living for a few years with the woman in question, an interesting man by the name of Beck makes an appearance, who proposes a mission to Aurora. Hence, she suddenly finds herself in the position to help an entire kingdom get rid of a nasty curse.

The goal of the levels is to clear a certain number of tiles, usually those that are highlighted. This is fairly simple at first, but the mechanics get more intricate later on, what with the addition of locked tiles and many other things. You can also choose to play in the hard more and make do with a limited number of moves, which is easier said than done.

You can also use the currency you earn along the way in order to purchase things in between the levels, as well as make use of various power-ups to get you out of difficult situations when there are no alternatives. Lastly, the graphics are quite nice as well, even if they are very basic from a technical point of view. Thankfully, at least the colors are nice, and there are all sorts of particle effects added on top.

Although The Voice from Heaven does not revolutionize the genre in any way, at least it features polished gameplay mechanics and plenty of levels to keep you busy. Thus, if you run out of content in your favorite match-three game, this can serve as a decent stand-in.
