Grid Rangers takes puzzle gaming to a colorful sci-FI world
Grid Rangers is a free puzzle game loosely inspired by Power Rangers, although the player does not need to have any familiarity with that TV series to understand the gameplay.
Fight Monsters to Win Powers
The storyline reveals that an organization of pig-like aliens called S.W.I.N.E. has taken control of the darknet; in gameplay terms, you maneuvere icons to eliminate the monsters. Swap the tiles into groups of three or more and the better you perform, the more powers and upgrades you will be able to obtain.
A Variation on the Match-3 Genre
At heart, Grid Rangers is very similar to many other match-3 puzzle games, like 7 Wonders 2 and Cookie Blast Fever – Match 3: Sweet Baking Journey. Compared to its rivals, the main appeal of Grid Rangers lies in its overall aesthetic. The game succeeds in capturing the colorful aesthetic of its source material, depicting a world built from a pastel palette and various weird and wonderful sci-fi gadgets. The pig-like aliens themselves, which are animated on the grid, look as though they have stepped right out of an episode of Power Rangers.
A Puzzle Game with Innovative Touches
The game’s main innovation is the option to trade points for new gameplay abilities. This is both an original addition to the match-3 genre and something that fits into the Power Rangers-inspired theme.
Easy to Access Gaming
Whether or not you have fond memories of watching Power Rangers, Grid Rangers is an accessible and entertaining game that compares well with many of its rivals in the match-3 genre and has an appealing aesthetic as well.
