Parents' Guide to Toy Story Drop!

Though not as challenging as other puzzle games of its kind, this match-3 puzzle game does have some interesting theme-inspired mechanics that manage to make it fun. Like similar puzzle games, Toy Story Drop! has you moving pieces on a board so there's three or more in a row or connected. This removes these pieces from the board, drops the ones above them down, and gives you points (assuming, of course, the pieces were the ones you were tasked with removing). In addition, linking more than three pieces gives you special power-ups that can, say, take out a random piece elsewhere on the board. Just make sure you get enough points before running out of turns.

While this may sound familiar, because it is, there are some new mechanics at work here. Specifically, ones that fit the toy theme from the movies. For instance, clicking the claw from one of those arcade claw machines swaps one piece on the board with another from a different spot. You also have to collect batteries (not included) to progress. None of which makes this feel radically different than similar puzzle games, but it adds a bit of the franchise's personality to the gameplay, which livens up the traditional match-3 play. By adding new mechanics to a familiar formula, Toy Story Drop! still manages to be fun, even if you're not a fan of the movies.
