If you grew up with Sanrio characters or still have a soft spot for Hello Kitty and her friends, there's a delightful new game waiting for you. LINE Games, in collaboration with their affiliate Super Awesome, have soft launched "Hello Kitty Friends Match," a charming mobile match 3 puzzle game that brings a fresh twist to the genre.
Where is Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 Available?
Currently, "Hello Kitty Friends Match" is live in the Philippines and Canada. A full global rollout is anticipated in the first half of 2025. If you're not in these regions, you can still pre-register on the Google Play Store to stay updated.
While match 3 games are a dime a dozen, "Hello Kitty Friends Match" introduces some innovative features that set it apart. For starters, the game plays in landscape mode, offering a more spacious and enjoyable puzzle experience compared to the often cramped vertical layouts. Additionally, the icons are larger than usual, making gameplay more comfortable without straining your eyes.
Set in a whimsical place called Dreamland, "Hello Kitty Friends Match" follows Hello Kitty, My Melody, Kuromi, Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, and other beloved Sanrio friends on a quest to collect magical star power and rebuild their home. This narrative adds a light adventure element to the casual puzzle gameplay, creating a cohesive and engaging experience.
How Many Friends Do You Get?
The game offers a collectible aspect as well. Players can gather 10 different Sanrio characters and unlock over 100 unique costumes. Pre-registering now, especially if you're outside the soft-launch regions, can earn you some of these costumes as rewards.
As LINE Games's first mobile release of the year, "Hello Kitty Friends Match" is perfect for those seeking a relaxing puzzle experience with iconic characters. You can pre-register or download the game from the Google Play Store.
