Destruct-O-Match III is the first game in Neopia to have a third remake.
Following the same gaming style as DoM 1 & 2, the aim of the game is to match boulders of the same colour and then click to remove them. Only groups of 2 or more matching boulders can be removed in this way. The more boulders you clear at once the more points you earn, and to progress to the next level you need to achieve a certain number of points.
Modes
Zen Mode: No points are awarded in this mode and you will never get game over. You can play for fun, practice, or stress relief.
Classic Mode: The most basic gameplay mode. Double click to clear the blocks and finish each level with as few blocks left over as possible. You must earn a certain number of points to continue to the next level (shown in the lower left hand corner), but there is no time limit, so take your time and plan it out.
Extreme Mode: There are no levels in this mode, every so often, a new row of blocks will come up from the bottom, pushing all the blocks closed to the top of the screen. Your job is to keep the blocks from hitting the top. If you manage to clear the entire screen, you will receive a 50 point bonus!
Double Trouble Mode: The gameplay for this mode is the same as classic mode, except you have two columns of blocks to deal with, as if you were playing two games at once. Remember that both sides are separate, nothing you do in one side will effect the other.
Double Trouble Extreme Mode: Extreme Mode... doubled! Gameplay for this mode is the same as extreme mode, but with two columns of blocks. Beware! If one column hits the top of the screen, your WHOLE game will be over. On a lighter note, if you clear one of the screens, you will receive a 25 point bonus!
Power-Ups
Some boulders have symbols on them - if you manage to clear one of these boulders then something special will happen. More of these special boulders were introduced in DoM3:
Fill - Adds another row of blocks to the top of the tower. Timer - Clear the block before the timer runs out or it will become indestructible. Multiplier - You get three times the points when you clear this block, so make sure you hook it up with a lot of blocks to get some huge points. Explode - Click this block (does not need to be touching another of the same color) to clear every boulder touching it, 8 maximum. Overkill - Destroys all boulders of the same color, very handy. Morph - The block constantly changes color, but has no effect when you clear it. Wildcard - Can be used as any color block. Undo* - After collecting the power up, you can use it at anytime to undo a previous move, except a move in which another power up is used. Shuffle* - After collecting the power up, you can use it at anytime to shuffle up the blocks. Scamander - Stops columns of boulders from rising. (Extreme modes only)
