Rovio's Bloom City Match Blooms on Android

Rovio Entertainment has quietly released a new match-3 puzzle game for Android devices, titled Bloom City Match. Currently in soft launch, the game is available in Canada, the UK, Finland, Spain, Sweden, Denmark, and Poland. This free-to-play title (with in-app purchases) challenges players to transform a dreary, grey city into a vibrant, flourishing metropolis.

Gameplay revolves around matching items to unlock color and life, gradually revitalizing different areas of the city. Players embark on a digital gardening adventure, tackling puzzles and sprucing up various locales. The friendly gardener, Oak, guides players through each level, providing assistance in their urban greening mission. The game features charming characters, from quirky townsfolk to adorable pets, adding to its lighthearted appeal.

Bloom City Match differentiates itself from typical match-3 games by incorporating blasting challenges, unique power-ups, and a variety of engaging mini-games. A recent update introduced 50 new levels and a new area – a dilapidated burger joint overrun by raccoons – requiring players to clean up the mess and restore the establishment.

The game's charming narrative, interwoven with side quests and small stories, enhances the city restoration experience. If you reside in one of the soft-launch regions, you can download Bloom City Match from the Google Play Store.
