Singapore based game publisher, Finger Punch has recently launched a new mobile game called Zoo Zoo Arena! Being a match-3 competitive puzzle game, it is having a gameplay similar to Candy Crush but with a twist – it features 1v1 real-time battles where you win a match by owning a larger field as you clear up the blocks.
To make things clearer, you will be able to expand your field by matching up 3 blocks or more. Of course, special blocks such as bees and petals can be formed by matching up 4 or more blocks so strategy and quick-response are quite important here.
The game also features blocks, boosters and unique cards in animal faces (which I found it super adorable). You can collect the cards from Jewel boxes obtainable from winning battles (you will get better cards when you are in higher Arena) and form all kind of different decks with them. Also, you can have some friendly matches with your friends too aside from battling strangers!
The game is now available for free at Android stores in North America, while other regions will probably get the game soon when it is ready for global launch. With its overloading cuteness, the game is something worth to wait for. Make sure you stay tuned to their Facebook for updates if you are interested!
