Popular Facebook Match-3 Game Diamond Dash Comes to iOS

Diamond Dash, the puzzle game that combines the mechanics of a game like Collapse, where 3 or more adjacent gems can be tapped and removed from the board, and the speedy pace of Bejeweled Blitz, is now available as a free download for iOS. The game has been popular on Facebook with over 10 million players per month. This iOS version features the same gameplay, and can synchronize with the Facebook game through Facebook Connect. Users can compare their high scores with their Facebook friends, and compete in tournaments with other Facebook users and friends to try and earn medals for their performance. Each player session uses up a life, which recharge every 8 minutes, or can be purchased through spending gold acquired through in-app purchases. While the App Store lacks not for match-3 games at all, this kind of synchronization between platforms is something that is not seen very often on the the App Store.
