Help Ello and Redrice save the imprisoned Orbics from their wooden cages deep in the underground dungeons of the evil dark Orbits. The round colorful Orbics can be dropped on top of each other to crash and open the crates. If you earn enough gold coins, you can build wonderful houses and condos for the freed Orbics on the floating islands of the planet Orb.

The play is to match 3 of the same color Orbics on top of each other to free them from their wooden cages. Even though you place 3 of the same ones together, it may not open all the boxes. It may take a couple of crashes to break all 3 Orbics out. There’s not much action since you just drop a crated Orbic on the pile below, but it is amusing to see the teetering boxes with the smiling prisoners. The goal is to free enough Orbics and earn gold coins to build homes for the unimpeded round balls. The blocks can come in forms of rocks and ledges to make matching harder, and you cannot go past the red laser beam at the top of the screen.

I didn’t find this game very fun or interesting even though it had the potential to be a humorous, action-packed match 3 game. The sim part of the game is full of shakey screens and is uncomfortable to watch. There could have been a problem with part of the game since the main play is fine with no shaking. I also think a round, colored ball with eyes hopping around looking for a fine rental has been tried already. Remember the Chuzzles? Trio: The Great Settlement is lacking the cuteness factor that other games have and ease of play. I give it a 2.5 out of 5.

Rating: ★★½☆☆
