Amazon’s Free App of the Day - Chuzzle


written by: Nick Kosmides

Chuzzle by Popcap Games is available now exclusively on the Amazon Appstore for Android.

If you've never played a PopCap Games game, shame on you.  Bejeweled is one of the most popular puzzle games on the planet, somewhere between Tetris and Lumines.  Match-3 is the game type PopCap is known for and Chuzzle fits the mold.

Colorful fuzzy balls with eyes fill the screen waiting to be matched in sets of three of the same color.  They must be touching, not necessarily in a row like Bejeweled.  For example, an L-shape configuration of matching Chuzzles will do the trick.  Watch them explode and possibly create a chain reaction.  Also, some Chuzzles may become locked making it impossible to slide that row and column.  Special chain reactions will create a 2x2 Chuzzle, which can add up to more points for your chain.  If you see a Chuzzle glowing ever so slightly, he/she will cause an explosion that will take out a large mass of neighboring Chuzzles for a near genocide effect.


Chuzzle is a fun colorful puzzle game that will go great in your collection of free Amazon apps.  Plus, the more it gets downloaded, the more games PopCap will bring to Android devices this year.  Including Plants vs Zombies which should arrive to the Amazon Appstore next week.  I'm excited for that one, but will not hold my breathe for Bejeweled 2 Blitz.  Heck, maybe we'll get Bejeweled 3 before Bejeweled 4 comes out to every other platform in 2012.
