The grapihcs are lovely. The gameplay is M3. Earning coins from the M3 you decorate your home before Christmas. Entertaining game.
This game is a B+.

Would someone please post how many levels and if there are more screens to decorate other than the one in the demo? Or is there just the one screen and once it is decorated the game is over. I want to buy but got pretty far in the demo so don't want to pay full price for just another hour of play time. If a DD I would go ahead but not at full price.
Thanks for the help!

What a delightful game. Music was nice and put you in the mood for Christmas. I enjoyed this game a lot. I like the occassional match 3 game to play when I want to just chill or while I am downloading another game. Lots of different things in this game...love the rockets...and your curser becomes a hammer when the game gets constipated so you can break the lock. Love it! Good at $2.99, $4.99 or $6.99!

Wow, does this game stink.
You don't have to worry about the game being too short. I've been playing it for 2 hours, and 50% of the time there are no coins for upgrading to even be won during a match 3 game. I am not ordinarily a match 3 player. I like some of them (like Farmscapes), but for me it is no fun to just play the games with no point to them at all, which is how it feels when you are not playing for coins to pay for upgrades. You're just matching for no reason, which to me is kind of boring. I'm already deleting this off my computer. If you really love match 3 games, you might like this because it does have a nice "Christmas" feel. But if you're buying it thinking it will be fun to get the cottage all decorated with upgrades, you are probably going to be disappointed with how long it's going to take.

If the game is running slow for you, your drivers may not be up to date. I am running on Vista with current drivers and having no speed issues. The game is responding very fast.
It is a nice match-3 Christmas game.
Merry Christmas

I enjoyed the game but one thing irritated me beyond bearing - it's a FIR tree, not a FUR tree, for goodness' sake!

I am adult, but I'm enjoying this game. It's nice to sit back and relax for a change, and not constantly wonder what to do, where to go. I think I'm getting burnt out on HOGs. I'd like to see some strictly adventure games for a while. Anyway, I downloaded the demo on this first. It was fun, so I bought. You do earn coins, that allow you to purchase items to decorate the home, trees, Xmas decorations, etc. That is fun. I have had no problems with the game. I did notice they just sent out an update, so I did update the game, but I'm all the way to Level 14 or something. I'm not good with these games, but it just allows me to take my time and enjoy the scenery. I did learn that the longer it takes you for each level, the less coins you earn, so I've got to speed things up I guess. The Christmas music is pretty in the background, but I have to admit as another reviewer said it was pretty for a while, then it becomes tiresome hearing the song over and over and over while you play a game. I may mute the music, but then that's what makes it Christmas. But to me this game is a nice relief from HOGs and just a more relaxing beautiful game. Everything is Christmas, even the icons on the levels, Santa hats, candy canes, gingerbread cookies, etc etc.
