If you have fond memories of Sanrio characters or still cherish Hello Kitty and her friends, you'll be thrilled to know about a new game that's just hit the scene. Developed by LINE Games and their affiliate Super Awesome, this game, titled Hello Kitty Friends Match, has been softly launched as a mobile match 3 puzzle game.
Where is Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 Available?
Currently, Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 is available in the Philippines and Canada. A full global rollout is planned for the first half of 2025. If you're not in these regions, you can pre-register on the Google Play Store.
I understand the initial reaction might be to dismiss another match 3 game, but Hello Kitty Friends Match brings some refreshing twists to the genre. Notably, the game is played in landscape mode, offering a more spacious feel compared to the typical cramped vertical puzzles. Additionally, the icons are larger, making gameplay more enjoyable without straining your eyes.
The game's adventure begins in Dreamland, where you'll join Hello Kitty, My Melody, Kuromi, Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, and other beloved Sanrio friends. Their mission? To gather magical star power and rebuild their home, blending cute storytelling with casual puzzles in a light-hearted adventure.
How Many Friends Do You Get?
Hello Kitty Friends Match also includes a collectible aspect. Players can gather 10 different Sanrio characters and unlock over 100 costumes. Some of these costumes are available as rewards for those who pre-register, especially if you're not in the soft-launch regions.
This marks LINE Games's first mobile release of the year. If you're in the mood for some relaxed puzzle-solving with iconic characters, you can either pre-register or download the game directly from the Google Play Store.
