Critter Crunch

good

It's an addictive little game. Mix gross, cute, strategy, innuendo, and what do you get? Critter Crunch.

Great game!

Its such a simple game, but so much fun! Charming music and visuals, this game is a must for anyone looking for some casual fun puzzle solving!

[h1][url=store.steampowered.com/app/61730/Critter_Crunch/]Critter Crunch[/url] is as likable today as when it originally came out on iOS more than a decade ago.[/h1] Gameplay introduces a charming twist on classic mechanics where big eats small through a crescendo of unique critters. Boost chains for score. Use a number of helpful power foods dropped by glowing critters. Match creature colors to score important combos. Avoid becoming lunch yourself! Completed sections unlock new areas that introduce new mechanics via a diversity of cute critters, such as bombers, wildcards, and several others, including ever-unenthusiastic veggies that simply refuse to eat anything. Regurgitating rainbow jewel slop into your offspring is undoubtedly the riskiest move but is essential for high scores. Puzzle levels must be solved in a limited number of moves, while Challenge levels impose an extra constraint such as avoiding specific moves or saving a number of critters in due time. While most puzzles are quite fair, some challenges are actually very demanding, many of them dependent on random distribution opportunities. Survival mode is just what you'd expect and multiplayer is no longer a viable option unless you connect directly with a friend. Play as fast or relaxed as you like in early levels. Challenges and later adventure levels rely on speed and precision and become increasingly frustrating. Carefree fun eventually devolves into repetitive crunching when creatures come down too fast. It got to the point where I gave up on the final story level after being physically unable to match the game's performance expectations. [h1]Positive[/h1] [list] [*] Lovely hand-drawn visuals [*] Cute and simple mechanics [*] Easily addictive and immediately accessible [*] Fair puzzles [*] Very satisfying flow [*] Short levels provide a quick fix [*] Good diversity of power foods and unique critters [*] Decent variety of puzzles, challenges and level setups [*] Increasingly challenging campaign with steady difficulty progression [/list] [h1]Negative[/h1] [list] [*] Frustrating later levels rely on speed and precision too much [*] Non-interactive auto-play tutorials [*] Absurd and superfluous cooky ecosystem story beats don't really add much [*] Multiplayer is dead as should be expected so long after release [/list] Despite ending on a sour note for me, Critter Crunch is an easy recommendation for several cheery hours of delightful fun.
