Looking for a quick arcade game? Sushi Matching runs in the browser and needs no download. The core of it is match 3. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.
About Sushi Matching
The aim of the game is to match three or more identical sushi pieces in order to reach the target of each level, before the time runs out. Time Stopping hourglasses, bombs and jolly pieces will help you achieve your goal. But be careful, every level will be increasingly difficult!
