Our take on Monkeys Ahoy
Instead of the usual match-3 swap, each move uses a drawn path through matching pieces. The game also shifts between shape and color connections, making chain length the central goal rather than a secondary bonus.
What is Monkeys Ahoy?
Monkeys Ahoy follows two young pirate chimpanzees on a quest to make the Ultimate Friendship Smoothie.
It is a match-3 game with a line-drawing mechanic: players connect matching shapes and colors to collect pirate treasures. Longer lines can create unique combos and chains as players move between shape-based and color-based matches.
