It's a German match-3 game! Nothing super notable, but I was able to switch the language to French (there are three: german, dutch or french, which seems like an odd mix - no English?, but hey - I'm not really complaining. Interesting things: (1) It's a match-3 BUT at any time on a level you can switch between 3 modes for how you match! (a) Swap and match (b) Trace a line of connected tiles to match (c) Tap on group of 3 tiles (that aren't in a line, but are connected) to match. This seemed like too much of a gimmick - but I was surprised when I did clear a level by switching between mode (a) and (c) - so, when you're stuck sometimes, it can help. (2) There are4 penguin characters that look suspiciously like the ones from the animated movie whose name currently escapes be about a bunch of animals that escape from a zoo - get to Africa and shenanigans. The penguins are like a crack team of commandos (in the movie). I think the penguins have powers on some levels - but it's all in French and I couldn't really understand what they triggered/allowed for.
