Heroes of Kalevala app for iPhone and iPad

Cute game, good graphics, fun gameplay. My major peeves are that the narrator doesnt pronounce the names right, and they use Wainamoinen and Pohyola instead of Väinämöinen and Pohjola. Its also a bit difficult to figure out what the little villagers mean by their speech bubbles sometimes. All that aside, I still had enough fun with this to give it 4/5. Would be nice to see some of the above resolved though ;)

I love this game. There are only a few things I find hard too understand. 1) the. Thought bubbles are hard to distinguish sometimes. 2) Somebody please tell me how I get an Carpenter and a Gardener. HELP!!!!! Please write the answer here if you know it.

Ill be honest. I had passed up this game a few times as I wasnt wow by the screenshots. However based on the consistently good reviews Ive read I took a chance on it. I havent regretted that purchase. This is what I look for in an iPhone game. Simple idea, with good production qualities (not just slapped together like we see too often) and addictive gameplay. I love the Game Centre inclusion, although Im not sure why I cant see all achievements I havent got yet.

If you love these types of games like me you wont be dissapointed! Ive played about 20 levels and its only getting better and better. I dont understand yet what Im sposed to do with my village though.

If you are looking for a fun well-made match 3 game presented with a great new style, look no further. This game is excellent... interesting story, good graphics/sounds, superb and addictive gameplay, all with a top notch presentation. This is the match 3 Ive been waiting a long time for. I always wanted a port of Big Kahuna Reef to hit the iphone, but this one beats that game by a mile. It has the same style gameplay (like Big Kahuna Reef and Jewel Quest II) plus 5X more added in in new style and innovative gameplay content, and a much more interesting theme. The main theme/story of the game is about a tribe building villages and trying to eventually acquire a rare special device of magic power called Sampo. The story is told in between levels and blends well with the gameplay. The core match 3 levels of the game are played on a traditional board where the goal is to clear the highlighted background tiles until the board is all blue, completing the level. Other than just the swapping of tiles to make matches, the gameplay also involves breaking frozen or locked tiles to free them and using bombs to break and clear tiles as well when they become available. Each level is timed, a bird will slowly begin to fly around at the start of the level and the level must be completed before the bird is able to fully encircle the board. You earn a bonus for completing levels with extra time left, but fail all together if the given time limit runs out. At the completion of each level you earn coins for doing well, and then use the coins to buy things for your village in the shop between levels, then build/arrange your villages the way you want. A well built village attracts heroes, characters that you usually unlock/acquire every few levels throughout the game to fight with your tribe. The heroes are all different, all have their own character/background details, and most importantly.. their own crazy special attacks to be used in the game. You can choose whatever hero youve acquired that you prefer to use for each level, the heroes will then represent tiles on the board and will serve as powerups when theyre matched together. Each heros skill or powerup will have a different wild effect on the board to help you clear it, so part of a level strategy can be choosing which hero you want to use. Really cool stuff. This game is not only a great match 3 game, but I consider it one of the better games for the iphone overall. Totally recommend it. Theres video and screenshots for this game that make it look good, but people need to play it to really see what a gem it is. Finally a match 3 that has been taken to the next level, imo its the best made match 3 game in the store.

My favorite puzzle game since Tetris! Kind of a cross between Jewel Quest 2 and Settlers of Catan combined with a true epic of Finnish/world literature. Worth the $2.99 and more!

I have LOVED this game for years, but this latest update has ruined it. It is low res, fuzzy, and the scale is off. I am so sad to lose one of my top two favorite games of all time.

Every game they make has the most annoying mechanics ever, they really need to make these games fun not aggravating... Its sad because you can tell the art/story has so much work done
