Disney Emoji Blitz

Kids will likely enjoy being able to see and choose different Disney characters, ranging from Ariel from The Little Mermaid to Sulley from Monsters, Inc. As kids advance to higher Disney Emoji Blitz levels, they'll unlock more characters. They can also make occasional special moves in rounds, such as tapping on their character to use an Emoji Charge when it's available, indicated by a rainbow-colored lightning bolt on the character's information card. That will set off a reaction that clears a large amount of items from the board.

The structure is pretty standard for a matching game -- kids try to combine three or more like items to remove them. Matching more than three creates special items, such as a cloud icon that will clear an entire row. The rounds are timed, but a lot of potential match options are typically provided, so the pressure to find combinations doesn't feel too intense. The graphics are a bit above average. While they're nothing overly elaborate, the generally cheery, cute visuals include clouds drifting by in the background and characters that playfully stick out their tongue if you click on them. Like numerous other games, this one features some pushes -- or at least opportunities -- to spend money. Kids are given a fair amount of lives when they start, though, and probably won't run through all eight too quickly, so they shouldn't need to start buying items right away just to continue playing. As long as they can keep matching Mickey Mouse, Eeyore, and other faces for free, Disney Emoji Blitz can be a fun game -- and it's simple enough that younger kids should be able to play it without much difficulty.
