This is an absolute combination between platformer and match-three game for both iOS and Android powered device. As a cross-genre app, makes it unique from the typical match three game and platformer. As for the story, you will play as a miner named Kentucky Jones that already experienced in finding all kinds of treasure. Well in this game, you will be introduced into different levels and puzzles to solves and that is why we are here, to help you complete especially those tough levels using guides below:
1. Do not use Puzzle to the Center of the Earth cheat. Unlike with with other match-three game wherein you can use cheat through time lapsed glitch to get unlimited energy, this time it will not only not to worked but also will brings major disadvantage to you. Upon doing the trick, it will lose all of your lives right away and it will take additional an hour and half to replenish all your lives. So never do the cheat in this game.
2. Look for stars and switches. If it is possible for you not to finish stages right away, you can look around for stars and switches. You will find stars are inside of treasure chests and it will allows you unlock more levels. You are also able to collect switches which if you collect enough, it will open up a secret level full of treasure. So don’t rush and take patience on looking for more stars and switches.
3. Do upgrade. The good thing to think about upgrade, is that this includes permanent combo upgrade as well as new combo recipes. The main upgrade allows you to pop combos that are one block bigger and combos of six or even more which lets you earn catalysts that come as red stone and this will allows you to use formulas.
4. Familiarize yourself with blocks. In game you will find different blocks which come in different color. There is a green rocks that will let you earn energy and the blocks with gold rocks which let you earn gold. Gold is the currency that you need to buy new characters as well as different items that you can consume during stages including power-ups. Actually there is no need to purchase additional character as this is only for aesthetical/model purposes only and there is no technical advantage from it seeing that both characters have the same capabilities. Instead use your gold to purchase different p0wer-ups to make it much easy for you to complete stage. But if you are looking for real advantage go for permanent upgrades that are able to add effectiveness to your gameplay in the long run.
5. Prepare a way back up. Upon matching blocks downward, you must try to do it in a way that leaves some stepping stones behind that works as staircase as your back up way. Keep in mind that you can get a little height with your jump so you really need to have a back up way to go higher altitude. This will not let you lock yourself out of a star or lever since you have a back up way up. Though this will add challenge to yourself but if you are serious in playing Puzzle to the Center of the Earth, this is a good practice to play the game effectively.
6. Use formulas for your advantage. Upon playing with formulas, you will find it as a good way of conserving your energy and get the tough spaces. For instance, the explosive formula, it is capable of blowing up a wide space, so if you wish to clear larger space on your workstation, you can go for explosive formula. Aside from explosive formulate, there is also energy formula and magnet formula which allow you to automatically attract gold, catalyst and energy.
7. Grind in previous stages. If you are dealing with tougher stage and stack up on it for hours, instead of spending more time, just go back to previous stages that you already completed and still loaded with lots of gold to collect. Spend time of playing on it so you are able to earn more gold that you can use to purchase more items, formulas, and power-ups which you are able to use as your edge in the current stage you are playing.
8. Go for already made openings. In game you will find that there are already a pre-made openings which telling you to go as you are able to go for treasure. You will find it as your hint and you will notice it having a big opening or sometimes are small space where there are no blocks. From this area, you will find star and sometimes levers too.
9. Purchase Detectors for easy star hunting. If you have lots of gold, and just like what we’ve said that don’t spend in buying additional character but with boost. And if you are looking for a good boost, you can consider Detectors especially if you are looking forward to earn more star. It will helps you find the location of the star in a level and that good thing to think about detectors is that you are able to get it for only 75 coins.
