Here’s a detailed overview of Travel Riddles: Trip to Greece (also marketed as Trip to Greece: Travel Riddles):
🎮 Game Overview
- Travel Riddles: Trip to Greece is a match‑3 puzzle game set across Greece, developed by Notus Games Ltd and published by Big Fish Games. (Metacritic)
- The game features more than 200 levels spread over 8 themed episodes, and the player collects 96 artifacts from ancient to modern Greek culture and landmarks. (GameTop.com)
- Locations visited in‑game include major Greek sites such as Athens, Delphi, Meteora and Santorini. (RAWG)
🧩 Gameplay & Features
- Core match‑3 mechanics: swap adjacent tiles (gems/objects) to align groups of three or more and clear them. Levels gradually introduce obstacles and varied layouts. (GameTop.com)
- Artifact collection: As you complete levels you unlock/display artifacts—this collection adds a meta‑layer of completion beyond merely finishing boards. (GameHouse.com)
- Episodes & progression: 8 distinct episodes means you unlock new locations/themes as you progress. Each episode brings new visuals and boards. (MacGameStore)
- Platforms: Available for Windows PC via several distributors. There is also a version on iOS (App Store) listing for “Travel Riddles: Trip To Greece” with in‑app purchases. (App Store)
✅ Why It Might Appeal
- Good pick if you like match‑3 games with a travel/adventure/theme twist: the Greece setting gives the game extra flavour (history, places, artifacts) rather than abstract tiles.
- The artifact collection and multiple episodes help give you reasons to keep playing beyond just “clear next level”.
- It’s relatively casual: you can dip in for a session, and the progressive nature works for relaxed puzzle play.
⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind
- As with many match‑3 games, the core loop remains familiar: if you’ve played many of them you may feel it’s more of a variation than a radically new mechanic.
- On Mac, one listing notes that the game is 32‑bit only, meaning it may not run on newer macOS versions (10.15+ without compatibility). (MacGameStore)
- The user review base is relatively small (few reviews on Steam etc) so wide‑scale community feedback is limited. (Metacritic)
