    Lucid is one of the most... mediocre, and forgettable Match-3 games ever, which really does say so much about it, as the vast majority of Match-3 puzzlers are already quite mediocre, and forgettable.

    As it is, Lucid flows along happily over its 55 levels, but playing for high scores alone may not be enough to tempt you into the zone.

The goal is to get a specific number of tasked blocks to clear a level. Each task requires you to make color blocks which pushes up your multiplier. If you don't follow the task, the multiplier drops back to zero. Lucid blocks can clear the field, but they are worth crazy points at the end of a level if you don't use them. It's kind of counter intuitive in that the point system is really about pushing up the multiplier rather than going for the largest color blocks. Keep your blocks small and you push up the multiplier to the point where the lucid blocks end up counting for tens of millions of points each.… Full Review »

Never had any resolution problems of my own despite some people complaining about that. The gameplay can get boring easily, as can any "match-3-or-more" type of game, but this one may capture your attention a bit longer than others because of it's relaxing qualities and simplicity. There are only a small handfull of achievements but I must say they are fun to achieve (and kind of easy as well). There is a good 55 levels, they are somewhat repetitive but if you're looking for a casual game to relax to after a hard day's work, and this happens to be on sale (I got it for 75% off), than I'd definitely recommend it to kill some free time.… Full Review »

As the name implies it's a simple and relaxing match-three type game with a few strategic twists like accomplishing a series of simple "tasks" with a time limit, which earn you items to refresh the layout and the usual score multipliers for setting up larger chains. Well worth the measly price I paid for it although I'd hesitate to pay more than, say $3, as the level layouts and tasks aren't varied enough.… Full Review »
