Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking action controls or combat systems beyond match-3 encounters may hit a wall at the tile-matching format.
- Players who want open-ended construction may find the 20 palace upgrades and five-world campaign restrictive.
- Players looking for multiplayer or competitive play may not find a suitable structure here.
Our take on The Trials of Olympus
The bounce point arrives at the core loop: progress depends on completing match-3 stages to collect building resources. Players looking for direct combat, freeform palace design, or a broader action system may lose interest when each major advance returns to tile matching.
What is The Trials of Olympus?
The Trials of Olympus follows Angelo, a young god banished from Olympus who must earn the Grecian king’s approval by constructing a palace.
Players complete 79 match-3 levels set across five distinct worlds, gathering resources for palace construction. The journey includes encounters with Titans and other dangerous creatures in the kingdom’s wilderness. Progression includes 20 palace upgrades, while the setting draws on mythological characters and locations. The game also includes original music with Roman and Celtic influences. Its structure combines tile-matching stages, resource collection, palace development, and a story about Angelo’s quest to prove his worth in the mortal realm.
