I had been playing Royal Match back when I had that dumb Pixel 5 phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I liked it, but didn’t play any games when I switched to S24 Ultra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I got S25 Ultra recently, and it had both Royal Match and Royal Kingdom installed from Samsung Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I deleted them and downloaded both from Google Play Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I also found Piggy Kingdom and downloaded it loved the differences in it for the most part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Royal Match stayed OK, but Royal Kingdom was different from it in good and bad ways. Dark Kingdom levels made me just hate them when it came to those little guys and barriers, I got to a mid-200 level (252 or 263 or another, I forget exactly which one) and spent days on it, no power-ups but what I could make and I never had enough moves to kill all the pumpkins at the end. One time I had one pumpkin left, usually I used up all my moves on the two previous areas before the final boss\/pumpkins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I never got a pity amount of power-ups that made it work out. Dumb dumb I’m not paying money to get past it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I got to that point with no coins to play on, and no power-ups to start and no in game special moves to choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DELETE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I found a couple more games, one a brick breaker made me feels so anxious, I played a bit and deleted it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another a mob shooter, kind of fun, story elements, and then Piggy Kingdom all along I was really good with it, having fun, loved the collection merge stuff. Game play was great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then they added ads to get 3 more moves, and I figure out I could tolerate that if it meant I could keep my Superball and all that stuff from winning multiple levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I burnt myself out doing that. I was so good I could easily have 5 hours of free play a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then I did something wrong while distracted and voila. Lost my power-ups and Superball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not something I cared to duplicate and I said, hey, I’m going to delete all the games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another game was Villain Match, I was playing that the other day and then hit a wall not finding a team to join. So I didn’t play it but the 5 allotted lives. I was happy to delete ALL THE GAMES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yay!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
