Lost in Reefs

I've been addicted to this game for over two months. In a nutshell, Lost in Reefs is Big Kahuna Reef 2 meets Cradle of Rome/Cradle of Persia. The ultimate goal of the game is to build an ancient city underwater. It's like building Persia or Rome among reefs very similar to those in BKR2. You also get to build a collection of fish as in BKR2. However, the things that make this game unique and uber addictive are the following:
  • A choice of three modes of play - Group, Swap, or Chain
  • A choice of three kinds of layouts - Square, Hexagonal, or Mixed
  • An unlimited number of levels; not limited to 100
As with all Match 3 games, my main gripe about Lost in Reefs is thinking that you've finished the board and then find out there's that proverbial "one more" cell that you have to turn gold. Also annoying are checkerboard gridlocks in group and chain modes, and stair-step gridlocks in swap mode. But all in all, the fun far outweighs the silly little pet peeves, and I highly recommend that you purchase it from the Calling All Game Addicts store.
