Get ready for intense fights against a horde of crazy monsters. Annoy them with your needles!
Ease into a strategic gameplay, learn to time your voodoo-skills and defeat the ugly Needlesack!

How to Play
Match 3 items in a row to collect them. In case of needles, you will automatically stab your enemy with every one of them (-1HP per needle). All other items can be used to execute skills and power-ups. Click on your avatar to open the skills menu or the golden buttons to open the power-up menu. A detailed description of the skills will be found on those screens. If you match 4 items in a row you will get an extra turn. At the lower left corner you will find the settings and help buttons. After winning against an enemy you will get +30HP and +30 coins.

I really like the concept but there needs to be better instruction. I figured out how to open the skill menu but didn't know I had to click on the skill to use it. I just thought it came automatically. And it would be fun to have more choices on the right side of the screen (again didn't know how to access them at first!)

I love that there is no timer! The graphics are cute and the music pleasant. The foes grow suitably more skillful as well as powerful. I'm as surprised as you must be to see other players aren't finding it intuitive. I admit I was afraid to click on the gold powerups at first, but eventually I risked it, and then I saw the tooltip! I count that as my fault, not the game's. And of course the functions of the trinkets (buttons, candles, etc.) are arbitrary. Why shouldn't they be? The sewn hearts and pins (and coins and skulls of course) make perfect sense, however, given the characters are voodoo dolls, which is obvious from the opening screen. Thanks for a great relaxing clever little game!

I like the look but not quite get the collecting. Hearts, Buttons, Etc add up but what purpose do they have..?.. It's not obvious

Nice game, like the fact you get to keep your skill points between monsters so you can save them up for the tougher monsters. Game is a little short though
