Features & Capabilities

"Guardian Sword from Picsoft doesn’t look like much at a glance, but under the surface lies a deep and strategic experience worth checking out." - Touch Arcade

"While the approach to strategy with matching gems is enough to keep me coming back (the boss fights are intense!), there’s also RPG elements to top everything off. - App Store Arcade

"I’ve always made the assertion that there’s room for one more match 3 hybrid on my device as long as the game keeps me entertained. Guardian Sword has done so much more than that so far – it has become an addiction." - TouchMyApps

"The vast amount of depth in their combat system really must be experienced to be believed, and — although I sometimes nearly began to believe otherwise — I really could defeat anything with the right abilities, tiles, and strategic play." - iFanzine

User Reviews

Guardian Sword combines puzzle and RPG elements into a deep, non-linear adventure where matching gems powers combat and opens strategic build options. Players repeatedly praise the satisfying match-3 gameplay, the depth of customization (builds, gear, buffs), and the optional side quests that add exploration. It’s generally viewed as free-to-play friendly, with grinding able to substitute for purchases. The recurring downside across reviews is stability issues, with frequent crashes impacting progress. Overall, its engaging mechanics and depth outweigh the technical drawbacks for many players.
Pros
  • Engaging match-3 puzzle with big combos and satisfying special pieces.
  • Deep RPG-style progression with multiple builds, gear upgrades, minions, and buffs.
  • Non-linear exploration on a map with backtracking and optional side quests.
  • Free-to-play friendly; you can grind to progress without being forced to pay.
  • Addictive and well-polished gameplay with broad appeal and replayability.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability issues across levels, including daily crashes and startup/boot bugs.

I highly recommend this game for fans of puzzle and RPG games, such as Puzzle Quest. It starts off very simple, but new mechanics and abilities are added throughout the game, all the way to the end. Drawing paths of matching gems to make big combos is endlessly satisfying. Finding a way out of a tough situation by seeing a hidden path using the special pieces always feels great. I finally got all the achievements as this game was enjoyable enough for me to want to 100% complete it. Using different builds is required as the game changes your encounters are requires you to adapt your play. So you get to test various methods of combating enemies. Play this game. It’s that good.

From the golden age of really good gaming, where you didn’t get nickel and dime, this Hass to be one of the best games of this genre I’ve ever seen. In fact, it is the best it deserves as close to five stars as it can get, I would pay again to play this game. It’s so good if they came out with a sequel I’d be happy to pay 10 bucks, as long as it doesn’t have a bunch of stuff to buy inside. If you’ve never played this year, lucky that you get an opportunity to enjoy it if you played it reinstall like I am, let’s see how a game goes this developers, the only one that makes games that I have ever played more than once.
