Is Magic Vines worth $2.99?

I tried this game a while back and gave it a "C" (buy if really desperate?). Just tried it again online to refresh my memory. It's cute but seems to get hard fast. From problems listed in this forum, I'm thinking I'll save my $2.99 and hope for a better game tomorrow.

I've had this game for quite some time and like it. It's one of those games I go back to when I want/need to zone out for awhile without having to think much about it.

One of my concerns with this game is it sounds like it's impossible to finish. Curse of Monetzuma is like that. It's impossible for me to complete the last level within the time limit so think I will pass on this one even tho it is only $2.99. Might consider for 99¢ but $2.99 is too high. This one was just too frustrating for me and I would be really upset to get to the end and not be able to finish. I have other SUPER match-3 games that I really enjoy playing so will stick with those.

I love match-3 games and since you said you had SUPER match-3 games to play I was wondering if you'd share the names of the ones you found really good. I love the Rise of Atlantis, Atlantis Quest, Gold Fever and Realms of Gold. And I have a hard time finding ones that are comparable so if you would share the names of the ones you find really terrific I would appreciate it. Thank you. P.S. I never got through the last level of Magic Vines but I did finally complete Gold Fever.

I like all the match 3's I've bought so far. My favorites are (absolute favorites are ***):
-4 Elements (excellent graphics; last couple of levels are killers)
-Druids - Battle of Magic (like the powerups; fast game play) ***
-Fairies (love the colors and graphics; can be relaxing in untimed)
-Fishdom (excellent game; fast game play) ***
-Jewel Match - Winter Wonderland (timed gets hard quickly; relaxing in untimed) ***
-Maui Wowee (fast game play; relatively easy)

Others I've bought that are also good:
-Ancient Quest of Saqarrah (untimed; unable to finish in timed)
-Curse of Montezuma (not on but a good game)
-Jewels of Cleopatra (unable to play after switching mouse to left-handed but good game)

Match 3 marble poppers, arcade/action, etc:
-Abundante! (arcade & action; didn't get very far but a cute game)
-Atlantis Sky Patrol (marble popper; finished; good game)
-DragonStone (marble popper; fun and cute story; fast reflexes needed in later levels)

Ones that I haven't bought yet but are on my BUY list:
-Deep Blue Sea (like the wiggly sea creatures)
-Linkit - A Christmas Carol (can do without the story but match 3 is fun)
-Puzzle Park (changes items from level to level)

Happy Matching!
