Tisnart Shapes

It’s not easy to get into the match-three business and make a dent, given the fact that there already are hundreds of successful titles for gamers to choose from. However, all it takes is a new idea to change things around and attract a lot of players, although a bit of content is needed as well. It also helps if you can make everything as colorful as possible, because people like to look at happy things when they relax.

Tisnart Shapes is a straightforward match-three game that challenges you to tackle a variety of missions that all boil down to the same formula: match as many jewels as you can as quickly as you can. There are other mechanics that appear along the way, each one of which adds more complexity to the overall experience, but the underlying idea remains the same all the way through.

As such, most missions challenge you to get a certain amount of a specific type of tile, which is not exactly simple most of time. Speaking of which, all you have to do in order to make a match is to click on a group of two or more of the same type, which automatically removes them from the board. The same is true if you happen to stumble upon a power-up of some sort, so the mechanics are certainly easy to understand.

Besides power-ups, you can also work your way up using boosters, which make things significantly easier for a short period of time when you need a bit of help. Many new tiles make an appearance along the way as well, including some that allow you to perform special actions, such as destroying entire rows, or detonating explosions around the board.

Lastly, don’t expect too much in terms of graphics quality, but the colorful tiles and backgrounds should be more than enough to keep you in good spirits. However, things look a bit too basic sometimes, given the fact that the shading is pretty weird. The music is not too bad either, but it tends to get repetitive after a while.

In the end, Tisnart Shapes is far from original, but it features enough levels to keep you busy for a few hours. The many types of power-ups and boosts keep the experience fresh as well, at least if you manage to make good use of them.
