Hey everyone! I present to you a game that sets a new benchmark in the match-3 genre. This game combines puzzle and strategy elements, as well as stats used in RPGs, such as experience, active and passive skills, along with many incredible challenges for you to enjoy. I tested the Voiceover support by playing for dozens of hours and I can guarantee that we have the same level of guidance and information compared to sighted players. I hope to see your name on the leaderboard! We have a tutorial explaining the game mechanics, movement, and use with Voiceover. Each screen of the game has been carefully designed to interact with the Voiceover hints. During the game, I recommend exploring the entire board by dragging your finger across the screen to find possible combinations, and then to move the path of tiles you select the location you want to move, double-tap and hold. When you hear the three beeps, drag in the desired direction: north, south, northeast, northwest, southeast or southwest. Let's look at some examples: assuming you found a blue tile in column 1 row 3 and another blue tile in column 1 row 4. you need to find at least one third blue tile to match these two. let's say you have a blue tile in column 1 row 7. to match it with the other two, we tap twice and hold until we hear the three bleeps. then we drag down a little, still without releasing our finger. the Voiceover will say: Moving south. if you drag your finger down a little more, the Voiceover will say the new position to which the current tile will be moved. as we are moving the tile from column 1 row 7 to the south, it will be pushed to the other side, in this case: column 1 row 3. it will touch the other two that were in the location and form a combination, transforming into a level 2 blue tile.

Other examples that could combine with the blue tile in column 1 row 3 and column 1 row 4:
If you had a blue tile in column 2 row 5, you could move it northwest to combine with the two. If it were in column 5 row 3, you could move it southeast to put it in column 1 row 3 as well.
The Voiceover announcements during a move are very important because they give you a perspective on how the board will look after the move. If you don't want to execute the move, or want to make sure you're doing the right thing, during the move you can drag your finger in the opposite direction to cancel the action. Example: if you are moving a tile in column 4 row 6 south and have changed your mind, before releasing your finger from the screen, just drag north, so you will feel a small vibration and the action will not be executed.
Your life is measured by island stability. You start with 3. Whenever you perform an action that does not result in any match, you lose one stability. If it reaches 0, it's game over.

The magic tap works in two different ways during the game: if you tap twice with two fingers on the screen while the board is focused, you can identify where your character is located, as well as the other beasts. If you perform the magic tap while focused on the top of the screen, outside the board, Voiceover will announce your stability, experience, score, and levels.
Remember: when you move one tile, the whole path of tiles will also be moved, so it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with how the game mechanics work and practice a lot to learn them well.
Of course, you can combine more than 3 tiles of the same color. The more tiles of the same color together, the higher the score. If you tap twice and hold on the score, located at the top of the screen, you can identify all the ways to get many points at once!
A combination is only valid when at least 3 tiles of the same color and level are touching. Examples: Column 1 row 3, column 2 row 3, column 3 row 3, column 5 row 1, column 5 row 2, column 4 row 1, and so on.
The skills you can acquire can restore your stability (hp), protect you from dangers, manipulate the board in different ways, help you annihilate the beasts, and much more.
Be prepared to deal with the beasts! Each one offers a different challenge! I'll leave these surprises for you to discover through the game.
I'll be here to help with any questions.
I hope you have a lot of fun with the game, I'm sure the developer worked tirelessly to listen to my dozens of suggestions and bring this masterpiece to us! Let's play and have fun!
