A delightful new puzzle game has hit Android devices, and it's called Mino. This charming match-3 puzzler puts a unique spin on the genre by introducing a balance element that adds a layer of strategy to the gameplay. Just like other games in its category, your goal is to match three or more identical pieces to clear them off the board. However, Mino throws in an exciting twist that keeps you on your toes!
Mino Needs You to Be Stable
The key to success in Mino is maintaining balance. As you're focused on creating matches, you must also keep the game board stable. A single misstep can cause chaos, so you need to be strategic with every move. You'll place Minos on the board, match them, and aim to keep the game going for as long as possible. But be warned—each move you make will cause the board to tilt. If you're not careful, your Minos might slide off the board, abruptly ending your game. Therefore, while matching Minos, you must also consider how your placements impact the board's balance.
Time is always ticking in Mino, but fear not—power-ups are at your disposal to aid your progress. You can clear entire columns, launch rockets to stabilize the board, and use wildcard Minos that can match with any piece. What's more, you can upgrade these power-ups to increase your chances of lasting longer and achieving a high score. Additionally, the game allows you to unlock and upgrade different types of Minos, boosting your in-game earnings.
Who Are These Minos?
Developed by Otori Studios, the Minos in the game seem to draw inspiration from the beloved Minions. These adorable creatures come in a variety of colors, differing from the iconic yellow of Minions but sharing a similar pill-shaped design. Their playful art style and colorful, monster-like appearance give Mino a fun, toy-like vibe. I couldn't help but be charmed by these little creatures, with their tiny spikes and cute stubby tails.
Mino offers a fresh concept with a decent challenge, wrapped in an engaging and colorful package. If you're intrigued, you can download the game for free on the Google Play Store, where it's now available globally.
