A calm and colorful match-3 puzzle game with a relaxing historical atmosphere and gentle village-building progression.

What players say
A simple match-3 with a rotatable board and three play modes that few later games from the same developer offer. Players praise the relaxing loop and town-building, but many warn of save-data loss and frame-rate issues that have persisted for years. Completionists call it a grind to 100%.
