Zuma is one of the best casual puzzlers money can buy on mobile even now. But do we really need another game based on the same formula?

Several publishers have aped the game, with the latest being HeroCraft's new game Zum-Zum. Well, with that name, at least it's not hiding its inspiration.

Anyway, if you need a primer, it's all about coloured balls snaking onto the screen in lines, with you shooting other coloured balls at them to match three of the same colour in a row and make them disappear.

There's also an Egyptian theme – cue scarabs and pyramids aplenty – with 35 levels to play through in two game modes and three difficulty settings.

Can Zum-Zum live up to or even exceed its influences? Click 'Track It!' to find out when we review it.
