A good match 3 game, with interesting puzzles design, quality art and a progress not blocked behing micro transactions or ads watching. Recommended.

It's an excellent game with new adventures to visit and meeting new characters. It's a game you should play if you're bored.

Hi .. the game doesn't run at all... it just gets stuck on the start screen ( Tintin in submarine !) ????

Frustrating ???? This is a fun and clever match 3 game. However I agree with most of the players. When you reach the third scene (the wrecked airplane) it becomes extremely difficult because you need 3 stars in almost ever level to pass. On top of that, I learned from your customer service that you need to have the 3 stars at the same time in each level which makes it even more difficult. You have to fix this. A balanced experience is nice for seasoned players but this is very difficult.

It's a good game, nice graphics, fun. Some mechanics are irritating. You can play every puzzle in a level, but can't progress until you've collected every card from the diorama (levels that feature specific moments from the books), but you can't unlock the individual scenes unless you collect enough stars from the original puzzles, some of which are difficult to pass even without the extra requirements. For purists, it doesn't follow the stories exactly.

This game is very fun, difficult, and addicting! It just needs more content. Like for example, more adventure dioramas to unlock, maybe some full body character figures that we can unlock and look at in a character showcase, the ability to zoom up closer to the diorama scenes to get a better look, etc. Those are just some of my ideas. All in all, 4 out of 5 for me so far.

Well done, especially for Tintin fans! I enjoy that the game doesn't think it needs to reward you for every single move with a 'good job' or 'wow' but it let's you play without the pandering and empty praise. No ads, no lives to run out of, just a new challenge every level. Some are saying it's too hard, but with a little patience m it's not nearly as hard as some are complaining. It actually it pretty easy to run through a whole stretch of levels. Would be nice to get a few more bonuses though!

This is a difficult game to play. The premise with thr addition of childhood characters and collectibles is great. But the actual gameplay suffers tremendously from being exceedingly difficult. In order to collect all 3 progress stars of each level, one must accomplish certain tasks such as collecting tiles of a particular colour within a finite number of moves. Great. But the RNG makes it so tough, that even with boosts, it is tedious and frustrating. Please re-balance the difficulty level.

This game is bright, colorful and fun. The music is upbeat and relaxing. I'm giving this 5 stars because it's not pay to win, and most importantly there are no cool-down times! You can retry levels as much as you want. I'd love to see more unlockables added and collectibles! Maybe even some Tintin art galleries. Update: The updates have made it just about perfect. I hope the developers add more characters to unlock and a Character Card collection.

Good game. Although it uses some of the classic match 3 game mechanics it does feel original, and the graphics and gameplay are nice. Each update brings something new and interesting, and the developers are keen to hear feedback and are quick in replying to messages. There is of course ads - these free games can't run without them - but they're not too much in your face and most are only if you choose to watch them. Not an ad-mining game like some are! Only issue is slow load without good WiFi!

If you like this type of game, it's great to kill time. The ads are not at all invasive unlike many similar games, you can play without watching any, or you choose to watch a few to help you (extra turns, extra cash). Edit: Just uninstalled the game, lowering to 3*. Recently the ads have been bugging (preventing me from closing the ad, forcing me to close the game). Also in some challenges the UI doesn't give you enough required blocks (iced blocks) to actualky complete the level requirements

Quite fun and relaxing, it's nice to have a game that does not use "lives" or "energy". I am able to play whenever w/o feeling inclined. Peaceful, just like the show. The music is calming and the quests are good, I often find myself forgetting the best combos that can be made. Going back to a level is also fun. Thank creators and developers for doing a show/game justice. It's the first I've ever seen on any platform that makes you comforting.

Don't know if the person actually played beyond level 10 because each level after that requires a turn and once the turns are used up, it takes 8 hours to get a full refill. Not expensive to get a refill (100 coins) but I'm not far along the game to know what 100 coins can do. It would be better for the turns to refill one by one in a shorter period of time

The new updates have made the game much better, more stable and easier to navigate, except for level 257. It's not marked as a hard level but it's impossible to get the three stars because you need to do it with 8 moves left over but that's impossible. You just manage it with no moves left. And you can't get more extra moves than 5... Or can't top up extra moves... Also, it seems like watching ads to get extra moves just stops after a while and you have to restart the whole game again.

I have played through 100+ level in this game,it seems I have got to a point where I have to use a booster to get through a level, and some levels are just ridiculously hard. This game starts out great, it's match 3 mechanic is quite forgiving, you can really have fun playing this at the start, but as you progress further, the levels objective becomes ridiculously hard to reach without spending coin and using booster. I found myself grinding the same levels 20+ times to be able to pass it.

Never liked collecting stars through stages. Gave Tintin a chance. 1 because I love the comics; and 2 because you are told what you need to collect to get 1, 2 or 3 stars but then I discovered that you need more than 1 star a stage to manoeuvre through each pictured area. I was missing one piece but had no idea what stage I had to replay to get it. Very irritating. Sure if I have replay a stage I'll do it willingly, but I would like to know which one I had to play again to get it!

The games ok to a certain point but then the game gets ridiculously difficult and relies heavily on you paying to proceed. The level I gave up on required you to get 50 aeroplanes in 25 turns, as well as other targets which is nigh on impossible. I know the developers say all levels are doable without paying but I really don't believe it. Shame as I enjoyed the game but when it gets so difficult it just becomes a chore and so I'm hitting that uninstall button.

Level 132 is a massive waste of time. Literally forces use of boosters. But dont have any so stopped playing lol. Could be great but when you need to get 6 green icons within last 2 moves when there aren't any greens even on the screen you realise the game isn't hard; it's a scam. Pointless trying to get 3 stars on a level that literally won't let you. Of course, you could always "buy more turns" etc. Scam. Shame its soils Tintin's good name. Shame.

I really enjoy this as a match3 game. It's beautiful and relaxing. Very keen for more levels, and I enjoy that the difficulty is there but "lives" are not used to interrupt gameplay. I am a little disappointed with the update to bombs, kites and rockets. The new animation(s) is jarring and not as pleasing in their first iteration. I don't even know what the bomb is supposed to be now... A mushroom from Super Mario?

Good game but the big problem is that it is accompanied by very ridiculous and LOUD ads that are not muted by default but can only be muted after clicking on it. The issue is that those sounds are far louder than the game's own music and sounds. And those ads cannot be disabled even through purchase. Spoils a good experience????

You almost always start with the same blocks settings. Order of the blocks are not random. At some point the irritating "no moves possible" message appears and blocks are shuffled. In harder levels you play the same level hopelessly for 30-40 times. And after some point everything falls into the place and you pass the level. For example, if you need to shoot for blue and yellow blocks there are less number of those than the rest. Idea about the game is good but the game itself is very amateur.

The only thing is good is the graphics. For the gameplay it's your typical match 3 games that is slight twist but it gets repetitive really fast like all match 3 games. At the start it is easy (to entice you to keep playing) and then it gets harder to get 3 stars at level 11, just because you never use any power ups to get through the game. For tintin game, I would expected more to adventure game or running type not match 3.

Great sound, graphics and very fun to play. It gets more and more difficult as you advance through the levels and you always want to play more. The special blocks (cannon, seaplane etc) are cool to use especially when you combine them for even better results. Can't wait for more content and functionality to be added. I hope there will be some "Destination Moon" content. I am at level 55 now. 5 out of 5 indeed!

If u like a challenge and being frustrated this ones for you! Ohh and bring your wallet or purse!!. I've played a lot of match 3 and this is by far the hardest. The struggle begins early on so you will know quickly if u want to spend on getting this one done. Concept and artwork is good though. Mine freezes alot on loading screen, and during play. EDIT. yea im done for awhile with this. they gotta get a better balance. Shame cause I may have dumped some dollar on it but not a money pit.

Excellent match three game, have played around 149 levels without spending any money but had to repeat many levels multiple times to beat them. After level 149 I found it impossible to progress without spending real money. I think would prefer a small price to buy the entire game rather than spending money after money on each level though

Tintin Match is like several games at once. All the while your matching a story, mystery, and live comics is unfolding. It keeps drawing you back to see the next clip. Did I mention before no ads? You have to take a break but it's hard because you want to get the next lock. Great game!

Really like the game, but game has just randomly starting crashing mid game. Losing any boosters I might have used

I CAN NOT describe the amount of nostalgia I had by just seeing the icon of the game let alone playing the game and watching the 3d screens above the game, I literally have all the comic books of tintin and watched the animated movie and the cartoon series and I am just rambling about how much I like the franchise instead of reviewing the game ???? and.....Ok. The game is amazing and it doesn't have forced ads and I love all the call backs to the story like the bombs as mushrooms. 10/10 love it!

After 5000+ levels of Candy Crush I decided to search for another interesting matching puzzle u0026 found TinTin match at last. They keep it just difficult enough to collect the stars and the levels slightly change each time you play the same level again. The scenes that gets revealed are a nostalgic treat if you have read those hard cover Herge classics. Overall a good time pass if you are not worried about advancing through the levels in a hurry.

Was a nice game. Now it crashes around every turn. Uninstalling is now only way out. Bye.

I reach level 155 without using any power up so far but sadly i had to use one for level 140. The game was very good. It was easy at beginning and getting harder quite slow, so i really recommend it for those who likes puzzle games like this. No ads disturbing the game except you want more moves at the end or looking for more money to buy extra moves. You must try the game guys. Thank you Tintin!

The game has improved a LOT! Feedback is heard by developers and this has become the best puzzle game for me. No need to pay, more than reasonable and justifiable amount of ads (appear in the form of watch to get extra moves but you're not required to do so). Really good game play and gets more and more challenging.

Total cash-grab scam. I've stubbornly endured it for over 300 levels without using any actual money, and I've honestly grown to hate this game. "Seasoned players" my foot, the game it legit rigged to force you to use boosters and irl money. Strategy won't help you, without boosters your only hope to beat certain levels is to count on sheer luck. Not worth your time. Graphics are ok though, but Haddock especially looks devastatingly lifeless. This game feels disrespectful to Tintin's legacy.

Great fun! Beautiful aesthetics bring Hergé's books into 3d rendered life. Completing challenges unlocks elements to create scenes (Although beware: it's not obvious, but you sometimes have to make repeated visits to a level to unlock everything - the game doesn't make this very clear, and will even sometimes move you on!).

I've kept playing this for longer than any other mobile game, I'm on level 148 and haven't had to pay anything. I like the way you only get ads if you want extra turns and I'm a lifelong Tintin fan. But they have just ruined it by making you need bones to play instead of just for extra turns! I could play it for hours before now you get a few games then have to wait 20 minutes or pay coins! What the **** why do this!? At least do an offer so you can pay a small amount for infinite bones!

A uniquely-themed match 3 game. I loved TinTin growing up, so seeing this made me happy. Thee game is challenging to get 3 stars every map, but there's unlimited attempts. If there's one quality of life thing, it'd help to see the directions gems travel in case they don't go straight down, otherwise no complaints.
noname155846, the 21/08/2023

i was playing the game since the last 10 days, really enjoying it so much! but later on the game will force to get almost 3 stars in everyday single level in order to open a new levels. literally I need now all stars just to open a new level. it is sad that the game is really enjoyable but the level system is terrible.
noname259263, the 21/08/2023

Game starts simple and fun. But soon you'll hit the pay wall after level 10. Level gets incredibly difficult to complete without the help of credit or tools. And credit are neither cheap to come by. 4 extra move 750 credit, tools cost 1000+ credit. Not to mention free credits your earn at very poor rate. Uninstalled.
noname228024, the 21/08/2023

Excellent. Much better than other match 3 games. It gets difficult but you can always go back to older levels to finish out the additional stars. And it's a breathe of fresh air to not have to deal with a stamina system. The graphics are ofc adorable.

Great game but needs more levels. I've played all 453 levels without spending any of my own cash. Ok, I have watched a lot of adverts in that time, but to those complaints that you cannot progress without paying that is not the case. Would have given 5* if there were more levels created.
