A delightful new puzzle game named Mino has just hit the Android scene, offering a fresh twist on the classic match-3 genre. If you enjoy games like Candy Crush or Bejeweled, you'll find Mino's core mechanic familiar: match three or more identical pieces to clear them. However, Mino introduces an exciting challenge that sets it apart.
Mino Needs You to Be Stable
The key to success in Mino is maintaining balance. As you make matches, you must also keep the game board stable. Every move you make causes the board to tilt, adding a layer of strategy and tension to your gameplay. Place your Minos carefully on the board, matching them to keep the game going as long as possible. But beware—your Minos can slide off if the board becomes too unbalanced, ending your run abruptly. Thus, you need to consider not only the matches you make but also how your placements affect the board's equilibrium.
Time is a critical factor in Mino, and fortunately, power-ups are there to assist you. You can clear columns, launch rockets to stabilize the board, and utilize wildcard Minos that can match with any other piece. Upgrading these power-ups enhances your chances of lasting longer and achieving a higher score. Additionally, you can unlock and upgrade different types of Minos to increase your earnings.
Who Are These Minos?
The developers at Otori Studios seem to have drawn inspiration from Minions when creating the Minos. These charming creatures resemble the iconic yellow pill-shaped characters but come in a vibrant array of colors. With their tiny spikes and adorable stubby tails, the Minos contribute to the game's playful and toy-like aesthetic. Take a peek at them in action and see if you agree with the comparison!
Mino is a fun and engaging game that brings a new concept and a decent level of challenge to the table. Its colorful, monster-like Minos and playful art style enhance the overall experience. You can download Mino on the Google Play Store, where it's available for free and ready to be enjoyed globally.
