[Game][2.2+] The Loons - match 3 topic

The Loons need your help!

The Loons were floating up into the sky when, all of a sudden, some nasty clouds appeared and blocked their way.
Now it is up to you to help them fight back, to break through the cloud ranks and on to freedom!

All new match-3 gameplay. Pop balloons to make space for others and group colors together. Groups of same colored balloons will fly upwards and damage the clouds directly above them. New balloons will feed in from the bottom to fill up the space left by matches. Use your wits and matching skills to defeat all the clouds and set The Loons free.

Features:

• Unique gameplay - a fresh take on match-3
  • 6 powerful power-ups (health, bomb, row, column, color, gas)
  
  
  • 3 useful skills (swap, shuffle, multi-pop)
  
  
  • Frozen loons that can not be popped; special loons which can not be popped but attack on their own
