Like many other match-3 games, this one tries to string a story along, but it just ends up being an incoherent mess that jumps from one unrelated sentence to another. You're supposed to be building an airport in 100 days when supposedly a murder happens (or something). Not only is the narrative a jumbled up pile of garbage, it also has got nothing at all to do with the match-3 puzzles you're tasked at solving.

And the match-3 puzzles themselves are pretty terrible too. The AI doesn't let you know if there are no more matches, nor does it reshuffle the board for you, nor is there a manual reshuffle button, so if there are no more matches, you have to figure that out yourself (tho' you can tell after some time, because if you have hints enabled, no more matches will appear), and restart the entire board all over again! There also are by default a fixed number of moves you have to complete each board in (although you can choose to switch off this function if you want to play a more relaxed game), but sometimes the tiles are just not in your favour, so it's entirely luck-dependent on whether you can complete a round within that number of moves. Special/New tiles are not effectively/properly explained, so you're left scratching your head as to what exactly they do, or how exactly they work. A demo of how those tiles worked would have been much better, instead of a useless statement like "the conveyor belt expands boxes around it" (turns out it doesn't "expand" boxes around it, but rather produces more boxes around it after some time).

Finally, the interface also sucks. There are menu/option buttons but with no text, so you have to guess at what the icon on each of them means. For instance, there was a button that looked like a chain of stuff. Pressing that took me back to the main menu and aborted my current progress for the round I was playing! There was no confirmation whatsoever, such as, "Are you sure you want to return to the main menu?" There's no confirmation for basically everything, including the round reset button.

The only good thing I can say about this game is that it has large, plump, easy-to-see tiles that generate a sense of satisfaction when they are removed. Other than that, it's pretty much garbage.
