Alien Hive has the foundations of an excellent match-three puzzler, but it spoils the mood with restrictive gameplay systems and an over-reliance on IAPs.

If you are a fan of Bejeweled, Triple Towns, Alchemy or slide puzzles this is a no-brainer. If you cringe when playing Resident Evil, and the slide puzzles show up this is not for you. Alien Hive is a refreshing mashup of genres, and it is a game that is easy to get into and really hard to put away.

This game starts out feeling tedious when compared with other tile matching games out there. But with the double layered development (Obtaining Magic Fruits before pushing for Supreme Alien evolutions) provides a real sense of achievement when you complete them. Truly a game best for killing time on the commute and for the long run!
