Crystal Connect

If you’ve ever wanted to play a game that feels like Bejeweled got lost in Middle-earth, this one’s for you. Crystal Connect is a visually lush puzzle game where you help a couple of dwarves (yes, actual bearded, crystal-loving dwarves) link matching gems as they trek through a magical world. Your goal is to clear the board by connecting two of the same crystals, but there’s a catch: the path between them can’t twist and turn too much. Just two bends, max. As the levels go on, things get trickier, with obstacles and special gem explosions that shake up your strategy. It’s relaxing, but not boring, kind of like a scenic train ride where you're also solving puzzles and collecting loot. Perfect for fans of connect games, zen brain teasers, and sparkly visuals that don’t talk down to you. Whether you're a longtime Candy Crush aficionado or just want something light and satisfying between emails, this one’s a low-stakes, feel-good gem.
