We already published the list of best Xbox One games of all time, now it’s time to discover the best Xbox One matching puzzle games of all time.
With amazing titles available, the Xbox One definitely has a great library of matching puzzle games.
So, if you’re a fan of both the Xbox One and matching puzzle games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.
And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.
#5. Sparkle Unleashed
- Release Data: 10tons, 2015
- Genre: Puzzle » Matching
Sparkle Unleashed won’t set the gaming world on fire. It’s not meant to.
Instead it is a great pick-up-and-play option for those occasional moments when you want to kick back, unwind and lose yourself in a game that doesn’t demand too much from you but does enough to keep you interested.
#4. Sparkle 2
- Release Data: 10tons, 2016
- Genre: Puzzle » Matching
Though it can feel very familiar at first, Sparkle 2 is different enough to be fun.
The power-ups are different from what similar games have offered, but the launcher’s upgrade system provides some depth.
And even if you already have the previous game, Sparkle 2 is worth getting for match-three puzzle game fans.
#3. Azkend 2: The World Beneath
- Release Data: 10tons, 2016
- Genre: Puzzle » Matching
If you can forgive the controls, Azkend 2: The World Beneath can be a fun puzzle game.
The imprecise movements of the directional pad make it very easy to commit mistakes, something that didn’t occur in the PC iteration.
If you can live with that, then you’ve got a puzzle game that provides a decent amount of challenge and replayability.
#2. Ironcast
- Release Data: Dreadbit/Ripstone, 2016
- Genre: Puzzle » Matching
Ironcast is brutally punishing yet equally rewarding at the same time.
Having to restart the game over and over can be absolutely soul crushing but the satisfaction you get from winning an exhausting battle is remarkably satisfying.
Ironcast isn’t for everyone, but if you like a challenge and have a low frustration tolerance, this could be for you.
#1. Anode
- Release Data: Kittehface Software, 2016
- Genre: Puzzle » Matching
Anode is a highly replayable falling block puzzler whose only major flaw comes in its indifference toward advancing the genre in any way.
The limited but excellent soundtrack and local competitive modes make the overall package well worth playing if you’re a fan of this type of game.
Just don’t expect anything groundbreaking.
