7 Wonders of the Ancient WorldGameZebo has a review of 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, a match-three puzzle game set among the proudest achievements of early civilizations. The list of legendary landmarks, originally compiled by the Greeks in the 2nd century BC, include the following:

  • The Pyramids of Egypt
  • The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
  • The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
  • The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
  • The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus
  • The Colossus of Rhodes
  • The Lighthouse of Alexandria

Sadly, only the pyramids still remain, the other great wonders having sucumbed to natural disasters, wars, and the relentless crush of time. But you can revisit these other landmarks through this captivating game, on a journey no one has taken before. It begins at the foot of The Great Pyramid of Giza and continues through the Egyptian sands to the mysterious Hanging Gardens of Babylon. You’ll travel through the enchanting Mediterranean islands to the glory of ancient Greece as your voyage continues. If your aim is sure and will strong, your eyes will behold what none have ever seen — all of the Seven Wonders of the World.

To build the 7 Wonders you must supply building stones to your workers by matching 3 same colored runes. Each wonder has cornerstones and a capstone. You must make matches below these cornerstones and capstones to lower them to your workers. Time is limited. Each wonder is divided into 7 sub levels.

Marc Saltzman at Gamezebo sums it up pretty well:

If you love three-in-a-row puzzle games and are looking for a well-crafted and highly-addictive one with an Egyptian theme, you won’t be disappointed with 7 Wonders of the Ancient World.

Behold the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World!
