    No. I'm not talking about thousands of match3 clones. Each of games that I listed have unique core mechanics. You just don't played them and judge by screens. Blocks on screen don't mean "clone".

    FWIW, I can personally confirm TA reviewers tried atleast half of these games (cant talk about the ones which were out before I was a mod). I wonder why they wasted their time with these games if they knew puzzlers were censored :rolleyes:

    Your theory is completely flawed and baseless.

    Again, so what? How many match 3s do you expect the front page to cover?

    Every other game of each genre will claim they are unique in one way or another. It still don't make them special.

    For example, Bad Apples.

    You call it "another match3 clone", but let's find out what is "match3". Best example is Bejeweled. You have full field and just search for gem that must be moved.

    Yes, in Bad Apples you also must make 3-in-line, but the core mechanics is different. You must save fruits from Bad apples. For this you must not make matches of certain apples.

    So main goal is not search for combination, but think over to how match good apples and evade bad matches. This is more logic game, than just searching field for matches.

    Maybe you should stop listing games and start digesting the comments and replies you've received so far in this thread.

    It's useless, because it's all about jealousy, not being covered and the fact that they screwed the last of their reputation.

    When will he start to list the hundreds of puzzles that were covered... or list the hundreds of action games that weren't covered?

    Funny thing, TA is full of Puzzle Nazis:

    TA - your source in search for the uber-puzzle.

    ok this thread is out of hand.

    The original thread and The Screetch threads were closed due to shilling.

    That means the developer team were posting as regular users trying to promote their game by deceptive means. This is considered the worst offense on this site and we have little tolerance for it.

    You've lost any benefit of the doubt with these actions.
