What's It About?
FROZEN FREE FALL asks players to match three or more ice crystals of the same type to remove them from the board. Matching more than three creates special crystals that can be used to remove larger areas of the board. To win, you'll have to meet specific goals, such as removing a certain number of crystals, hitting a score, or getting special items to drop to the bottom of the board. Some levels have more than one goal. There are special power-ups that match the "helper" for each level. You can work with Frozen favorites Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, Hans, Sven, and Pabbie.
Is It Any Good?
If you enjoy match-3 games, and especially if you're also a fan of the movie Frozen, Frozen Free Fall may be just your cup of tea. The graphics are pretty, and it's fun to pair up with your favorite characters to win a level. However, the pressure to buy is high for a game that employs characters from a family-friendly movie geared at younger children. Higher levels require a lot of patience (or a lot of cash!) to complete. If you can get past that, however, it's entertaining, and there's enough variety in the puzzles to keep things interesting -- you'll get hooked in no time.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about merchandising and characters. Is this game more fun because it has Anna and Elsa? What do they add to the experience?
Families also can talk about patience when it comes to apps that contain in-app purchases. Is buying always satisfying, or does it feel better to earn a power-up or an extra life?
