About Us

Who runs Match 3 Games, how we review games, and what you can expect from this catalog.

Site Purpose

Match 3 Games is a browser-first catalog of Match 3 and related matching puzzles. We host and embed free HTML5 games so you can play candy, jewel, tile, and bubble titles without installing an app. Current snapshot: Our catalog features 207 HTML5 browser games fully tested for mobile and desktop compatibility, including 77 Match 3 titles plus candy, jewel, bubble shooter, merge, and related puzzle formats.

Ownership & Operator

Match 3 Games is an independently operated web catalog published at match-3games.com. We are not affiliated with King, Microsoft, PopCap, or other major commercial Match 3 publishers unless a specific page states a verified partnership. Brand names that appear in game titles or comparison articles are used descriptively to help players find similar free browser games.

  • Audience focus — English (US) players looking for free HTML5 Match 3 and related puzzles

Editorial Team

Content is produced by the Match 3 Games editorial desk—a small team of puzzle-game editors and web producers focused on casual Match 3, candy match, jewel boards, and bubble shooters. Editors play each candidate title in a browser before it is listed, write page guides from hands-on play, and maintain comparison articles such as annual Top 10 lists.

  • Puzzle Editors — evaluate board clarity, fairness of difficulty, and whether controls work with mouse and touch. Catalog scores shown as “Editor score” reflect this review, not live player averages unless a page states otherwise.
  • Web / QA Producers — check embed stability, load behavior, and cross-browser responsiveness before publish.
  • Corrections — factual errors and broken embeds can be reported to info@match-3games.com; we verify before updating listings.

Game Testing Standards

All HTML5 games hosted or embedded are manually reviewed for malware risk, performance, and cross-browser responsiveness before they appear in the public catalog. We do not auto-publish unverified third-party iframes.

  • Smoke-test load in current Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari where available
  • Confirm mouse and touch input inside the player frame
  • Reject embeds that fail to start, crash on common devices, or show deceptive overlays
  • Re-check reported broken games and remove or fix listings promptly

Detailed ranking and advertising rules live in our Editorial Policy.

Operating Principles

We respect game copyrights and present embeds under license or permission from rights holders or authorized distributors. Rights holders can use our Copyright page to request review or removal. Advertising does not decide which titles pass QA. We improve the catalog using analytics, player reports, and scheduled editorial reviews.
