Take a good look at the board while it is lit up because the lights will go out! You must then match elements to create electrical currents that will briefly illuminate the board, disintegrate the elements, and turn them into gold. While the board is briefly illuminated from creating a match, you will have another chance at seeing where elements are located and how they’re aligned. If you wind up not getting a good enough look, you can use a hint. The game includes three modes, loads of ways to upgrade your gold producing machine, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.
Aureus Prime is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 103 ratings.
Typatone is a delight to use. Every letter typed corresponds to a musical note, resulting in a harmonious spin on your written work. Tap the note icon to cycle through the six different moods, which will change the speed, filter, and color of each letter’s musical note.
