I’m talking about the latest iOS app called Coinnect that has been developed by 2pensmedia. The app is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad and requires iOS 7.1 or any later version of the OS.

Coinnect is one word is – addictive. The gameplay consists of a board over which coins of 6 different colors are arranged randomly in rows and columns. You have to match 3 or more same-color coins either horizontally, vertically or diagonally or you can even use a combination of directions. So the possibilities are endless. But you’re always running against the clock. There are two gaming modes: Free Play and Tournaments.

In the Free Play mode, you’re playing against yourself i.e. you’re always running to break your previous highest score. As there are many possibilities to score, you always have to work out the best possible combo that will earn you highest points. To aid you in scoring even higher points, you can buy a Prism Coin from the in-app purchases that lets you link different color coins and therefore opens up even more avenues for you to score. As you keep on playing, the time on the clock keeps on decreasing and it gets tougher for you to score.

But the time you spend on Free Play is the time when you hone your skills. The more you play here, the better you get at your game and the more ready you are to participate in a tournament. The Tournaments and contests are not for free – you have to pay a small entry fee. So before entering a tournament, make sure you’re good enough to beat the rest. Each tournament has a certain grand prize which can vary from $10 to $500. So you have a real good opportunity to earn big bucks here.

Each tournament has a certain time validity before which anyone can enter the contest and post his score. So if you’re really good in your game, play your natural game and post a total that nobody else can surpass. If at the end of the tournament you’re the rank 1 holder, you get the prize instantly in your account which you can withdraw anytime. There are many challenging contests going on at the same time and you can participate in as many as you want. So there’s enough money lying on the table and if you’re smart enough, you can have it all!

Coinnect is a very beautiful and addictive piece of Match-3 game. The app is available for free in the App Store. So what are you waiting for?

Pros: addictive gameplay; two different gaming modes; Free Play and tournaments; multiple challenging tournaments to participate; grand prizes; free.

Cons: none.

I give this app 4.5 out of 5 stars.
