Hello! Could you explain the gameplay in this page or in the game itself? Is it this: the character is stopped by obstacles and you have a limited time to match 3 items of the right kind for the obstacle (axe for tree, key for chest, etc).
Hey! Yes you are right. It needs a bit more explanation. Part of the game was intended to be the discovery of the different combinations. So I won't explain them all ;)
