Cryptrio Review (Nintendo Switch OLED)

Cryptrio Review, Enter the crypt and defeat as many monsters as you can before they overwhelm you! Match three of the same type of monster to defeat them. Their weird and wobbly shapes mean you’ll have to think hard about where to connect each piece lest you find yourself backed into a corner…

Cryptrio Review Pros:

• Decent pixel art graphics.
• 37.8MB download size.
• Match 3 puzzle gameplay.
• How to play option.
• The name entry uses three initials to keep it old school.

• The gimmick is each creature has its own unique shape and you cannot rotate or flip the pieces, you drop them and place them that’s it.
• Boss pieces will drop and to damage and kill them you match pieces on top or next to them.
• Really clever boss mechanic.
• As you play you level up which brings the boss drop forward and speeds the game up.
