Matching hearts
Matching games wherein you combine three or more similar tiles to remove from the board offer fairly simplistic gameplay but provide fun and long-lasting appeal. There are have been many such titles that have released, each introducing its own twist to the formula. Valentine's Day: Match & Crush is one of them, and as its name suggest is themed after the romantic holiday.
If you've played any match-3 game before, Valentine's Day: Match & Crush will immediately feel familiar to you. The gameplay premise is essentially the same, with you matching heart, gift, flower, and cookie tiles to clear the board. There's your basic match 3 move, but you can also match 4 or more to create boosters that provide various power-ups to clear rows and columns faster.
Up top are the Moves and Score counters, and a meter to indicate how many moves you need to make to clear the level. Aim for the highest scores possible to earn 3 stars. Aside from that, though, there isn't really anything else to explore here, and things can get dull after a while. The addition of more game modes or special items would have helped expand the gameplay further.
