When you don’t need a story in a match 3 play, you go to Mac game Swap from Phelios. It is a basic match game with many, many options to change the look of the board.

The play is to swap 2 items to match 3 or more objects of the same thing in a row vertically or horizontally. Swap has a lot of items to select from and many background or skin scenes to change. Some of the tokens or icons are gems, flags, hearts, shapes and rounds. The backgrounds are subtle but I think that’s best because if the background scene is too busy, it will take away from the play. Some of the skins are called Simply Pink, Cool Blue, Classic, For Her, For Him, Fresh Green and Flower Power.

There are 4 games to play: Rush you have 60 seconds to beat the high score, Classic gives you 5 minutes, Million you play until you reach that score and Relax is untimed. There are 4 modes of play you can choose from: Crazy, Easy, Normal and Hard. You select the level you are most comfortable.

The powerups are the cross where when the tokens are swapped will explode the items across horizontally and vertically. The lightning bolt will destroy a row or column whichever way it is facing. The bomb will blow up a few of the surrounding tokens.

In addition to all these choices, you can also design your own token sets and play them on Swap.

The playability of Swap is endless. With so many options, you can change your play in how it looks and how it plays. You will enjoy this game if you are a match 3 fan and like good, fast paced music. Take a challenge or relax and have fun in this versatile match 3 game. I give it a 4 out of 5 for an enjoyable play.

Rating: ★★★★☆
