Magic Vine Games to Play

How to Play

• A board of tiles is provided in which each square contains a few types of plant life. For instance, the first level contains green vines with leaves and bamboo shoots. There are also orange and green vines that can be paired with either green vines or bamboo. Clicking on the square rotates the plant life to be either horizontal or vertical. Once three vines of the same type are lined up, the bright squares behind the vine disappear. The goal is to get all the squares to disappear to advance to the next level. Each level is also timed.

The Free Version

• There are a number of free trial versions to play online. At Play.vg, you gain access to the first area, which takes place in Hawaii, where you start your world tour. The goal is to travel around the world, which is designated on a map between levels.

The Paid Full Version

• By paying for the full version, you gain access to the full map displayed at the beginning of the first level. See the link to Widows Games in the "Resources" section of this article to buy the full version. Once the first world is completed in the full version, you are granted access to higher levels in different areas of the map. New sections of levels are cosmetically themed, based on the locale of that level. Higher levels in the full version will have more challenging boards with larger gaps between rows and more challenging vine arrays. Be wary of "free" downloads, as many can harm your computer or be a scam.

Similar Games

• Play.vg compares Magic Vines to Bejeweled, a similar puzzle game where players are given a board of different types of jewels. By clicking on a jewel and dragging it in any one of four vertical or horizontal directions, that jewel exchanges places with another next to it. A line of three or more jewels of the same type makes the jewels disappear and more fall into the grid. The goal is to get as many jewel combinations as possible. This game is readily available for free on many flash game sites.

  Play.vg also listed Pipe Dream as an influence on Magic Vines. This classic game provides players with a simple grid and pipe parts are used to guide water through as many pipe pieces as possible. See FreeWorldGroup.com to access this game.
