Dragon Ring is a fantasy-themed match-three with RPG elements, out now

  • Dragon Ring is a brand-new fantasy-themed match-three puzzler with RPG elements
  • Take on a storyline of adventure and recruit, then upgrade heroes to take on powerful bosses
  • Virtually everything and the kitchen sink is thrown into this release

Today, as you might guess, it’s the end of a weekday and that signals another fun mini-challenge! This time, we have an interesting game to share – Dragon Ring, a match-three puzzler with a fantasy theme and some role-playing game (RPG) aspects. Will these features be enticing enough for gamers? Let’s see!

Similar to many games in its category, this match-three puzzle game is a blend of various elements. You’re not just solving typical match-three puzzles; you also get to gather and enhance characters, and then engage these heroes in battles against formidable opponents. Your strategic thinking is what drives these encounters.

Visually, it offers a lively, fashionable universe (with the hint of AI art in their product description), yet it also includes narrative aspects to prevent it from feeling like you’re merely progressing through unconnected levels. Moreover, it’s advantageous that you can play it offline, eliminating the need for internet connectivity.


Standardly so

As a gamer, diving into Dragon Ring feels like stepping into a familiar gaming world, but I can’t help but wonder if it truly shines among its peers. The store listing gives a quick rundown of mechanics and features that can be overwhelming at first glance. Without a trailer to provide a visual sneak peek, it’s tough to gauge how well Dragon Ring holds up when actually played.

Although it may not be perfect, there’s nothing wrong with its appearance at all. If you’re seeking a fresh addition to your match-three games for this week, you might find it worth exploring on the Apple App Store or Google Play.

Last week, Catherine Dellosa delved into the card-shop simulator Kardboard Kings and found it enjoyable, yet felt it was lacking in certain aspects. To learn more about these shortcomings, I recommend reading her review.
