USER SAYS

"Despite the light-hearted script and colourful visuals, chronoSgear is a riveting and mentally challenging proposition that skilfully melds two genres into a cohesive and enjoyable experience"
~ www.pocketgamer.co.uk (Damien McFerran)

" I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS GAME......like seriously, Im lovin it (McDonalds might get mad xP). When I first saw the screenshots on TA I thought it was another match-3 game...boy was I wrong, and in a way that absolutely blew my mind. First, I love the graphics and in-game visuals. The character portraits are very well-drawn, kudos to your fabulous visual design team. The core gameplay itself is simple to grasp when playing for the first time but extremely difficult to master, which is a great thing. You have included many additional components such as a variety in unit type and class, as well as the soul cards which add another level of depth to the overall game. All in all, an outstanding SRPG in a very pretty package. "

CONNECT-3 BATTLE PUZZLE:
The battlefield is divided into top (Enemy) and bottom (Yours). The objective is to battle through enemy territory into the "Soul Zone." Attacking the Soul Zone weakens the enemys soul. Users can execute basic attacks by vertically matching 3 same color Core Units. By horizontally matching 3 Core Units they can also build defensive walls against enemy attacks.

STORYLINE:
Your name is Starck, and youre a lieutenant in the powerful Amici Mafia family. You werent born into the life, like so many other family members. The Amici took you under their wing 10 years ago; right after your mother was murdered in cold blood.

You were scared and confused, but even at that young age you were quick to learn what it took to earn the trust and respect of "The Family." Now that youve fought your way to the top, the worst has happened yet again.

General Vincenti, the Amicis long time rival and sworn enemy, has taken down your adoptive family; and now youre on a mission of revenge. This is the most important contract of your career, and if you succeed, you could very well undo the evil that has befallen your family.

You must travel back in time and assassinate Vincenti before he comes to power.

Can the time-traveled assassination be as simple as it sounds?

Pros and cons of chronoSgear app for iPhone and iPad

chronoSgear app good for

It is the type of game that you can pick up and play for 3 minutes or an hour. Match 3 plus rpg = lots of fun
An amazing game that takes a lot more strategy than I though and can be challenging which keeps the game lively and enjoyable
Really interesting idea for a game - you have to think tactically to arrange your units for maximum offensive and defensive styles. Its a lot harder than it looks but VERY addictive! I am using an iPhone 3g and have no speed problems at all, the load time is also one of (maybe THE?) fastest of any game I have! Definately recommend this!!!

Some bad moments

Fantastic match 3 RPG game. It is incredibly addicting. The game has simple RPG elements combined with a matching 3 objects battle system. You walk around getting into random battles as you continue moving the story along by playing missions. Controls for movement are done with an on screen d-pad with relative movement. To battle, you select, move, and combine units that match in color. There are even a couple different types of units available that you can use in battles that can give you a major advantage. The story for the RPG part of the game is pretty good too and the whole game becomes incredibly addicting after playing it for a while. RPG fans and even match 3 fans should be quite pleased with this game!
Is a great fantastic match RPG game... with manga drawing scene....and unique 3 match gaming board.. trust me...once start the game...u won stop it...
I was skeptical when I first saw the screenshots in a game forum. This simply look like a full fledge console game. But I was wrong. Chronos Gear is totally off the charts. Amazing graphics. I love the way the characters are drawn. Superb music which gels well with the games engaging storyline. The Connect-3 puzzle battle mechanic is simple awesome !!! I will highly recommend this game !!!
After some bumps with the game because of a bug, I got past the tutorial and am enjoying the game. Great for fans of puzzle quest or rpgs in general. If this Is the prequel, bring on the full game!
I have been playing for 2 hours straight since i got it, very addictive ! Top notch in every aspect of the game. I love the unique presentation of the manga art style and the puzzle game mechanism. The music is totally a class of it own too. For those 1 star reviewers, I have the same bug. Just re-install the game and it runs perfectly fine. I completed the game. It is stated under the "What New in Version" that you should start a new game before enter the tutorial. To the DEVELOPER, if you are reading this, please make the comment "START NEW GAME BEFORE TRYING OUT TUTORIAL" more prominent before your game is trashed down to single star rating. I dont think you deserve that. Keep up the good work though. Peace out.
Really fun game that I highly recommend to all who like strategy. New players could highly benefit from more direction instead of just being left roaming around. Enemies are leveling up with you, but more direction towards plot. Speaking of direction, there are some things happening in the battle that just havent been explained, like why some units attack sooner than others. Lastly, the game needs an OK button to confirm the move of every unit.
