Button Tales
A 2016 Match 3 puzzler that tries to twist the formula with mechanics beyond swapping tiles, but lands as a forgettable mid-tier casual game.
GamerScout Verdict
A forgettable Match 3 with decent art that doesn't justify the time investment over established alternatives.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Button Tales
Button Tales is a Match 3 game that wanted to do something different. Instead of the standard swap-and-clear loop, it introduces what it calls innovation mechanics that supposedly give the genre fresh legs. The cute character designs and environment art are pleasant enough, and the music won't drive you up a wall, which is more than some casual games manage. The core loop is inoffensive. The problem is that innovation never quite clicks. The mechanics feel tacked on rather than integrated, and without meaningful progression systems or clever puzzle design to compensate, Button Tales fades into the background noise of the hundreds of Match 3 games out there. It's fine if you're desperate for a low-stakes puzzle game and don't mind forgettable, but there are better casual options that respect your time.
