Christmas Puzzle 3

Here’s a brief description of Christmas Puzzle 3:

🎮 Overview

Christmas Puzzle 3 is a match‑3 puzzle game developed by Notus Games Ltd and released on December 15, 2017. (Steam Store)
In the game you help an elf prepare a town for Christmas — decorating buildings, adding ornaments, lighting up a festive fair — while solving match‑3 puzzles. (Steam Store)
It’s designed for casual players who enjoy a holiday aesthetic and festive theme.

🧩 Key Gameplay Features

• Standard match‑3 mechanics: swap adjacent tiles/icons to create matches of three or more of the same kind, clear them and progress. (Steam Store)
• Thematic features: The game incorporates Christmas elements (snow, decorations, town buildings) and allows you to decorate the town, build cafés and shops, and install ice sculptures for the holiday atmosphere. (Steam Store)
• Obstacles & power‑ups: You’ll face boards where snow has covered tiles, locked doors block paths, and you have a “Magic Wand” power‑up to help blast through difficult parts. (Steam Store)
• Platform & specs: The game is available on PC via Steam. Minimum system requirements: Windows XP or later, 1.0 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM, 200 MB storage. (Steam Store)

✅ Why It Might Be Worth Trying

• If you enjoy match‑3 puzzle games and are in the mood for something with a strong festive/Christmas theme, this game delivers that holiday ambiance.
• The added town‑decoration elements give you goals beyond “just clear the board” which can be satisfying for casual play.
• Because the system requirements are modest, it should run well on many PCs.

⚠️ Things to Consider

• The core gameplay is very much familiar to match‑3 fans — if you’ve played many such titles, the novelty may be modest.
• The town‑building/decorating aspect is likely lightweight rather than a full‑fledged simulation — the main loop remains puzzles.
• As of the listing, only 8 user reviews on Steam — so the community and support may be limited compared to bigger titles. (Steam Store)
