So here's my honest take on Empires & Puzzles: Dragon Dawn. I've tested a bunch of match-3 games and this one's got a pretty solid strategy element to it. The clan battles are where it really shines - you can team up with friends and try to take down other players' bases. Not gonna lie, the progression can get a little grindy, but the RPG mechanics and hero collecting keep it interesting. Definitely one of the better free-to-play games I've played in this genre.

Description

Been playing Empires & Puzzles: Dragon Dawn for a couple months now. It’s basically a match-3 puzzle game with RPG and base-building elements. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kind of stuff.

Here’s what you do: you solve match-3 puzzles to power up your army and then raid other players’ bases. There’s also an epic PVP mode where you can team up with a clan and battle other clans. Took me a while to figure that out but it’s actually pretty fun. And you can collect all these cool hero cards – the graphics on them look amazing.

Look, if you’re into strategy games and don’t mind a bit of grinding, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the upgrades take forever at higher levels and the ads can get annoying. But overall it does the job. Worth checking out.

Fun but Overwhelming. The devs really try to exploit dopamine with about.... 14 to 16 red exclamation points populating for daily challenges, to-dos, and reminders. If you can ignore all...
