Earn Free Gift Cards Playing Royal Match With Fetch Play

September 11, 2024

Royal Match is hardly flying under the radar these days. Word of mouth generated enough buzz to bring 55 million monthly active users. Am I one of the many who has opened the game, played for what seemed like 15 minutes, then looked up to find myself in a new decade?

Err… NO COMMENT. Let’s just say I’m armed with the know-how needed to start playing and the pro moves and hacks to crush this increasingly popular mobile game. I also have the Fetch Play gaming app, which means I can rack up reward points as I level up and complete in-game tasks, then redeem them for free gift cards eligible across a wide range of retailers.

Not too shabby, and you can get in on the action by downloading Fetch today. Here’s everything you need to know.

*Not all games are available to all Fetch Play gamers. Keep checking back, as more games are always being added!

What is Royal Match & how do I play?

Royal Match is a free-to-play tile-matching game that’s easy to learn but tricky to master.

Each level challenges you to complete one or more “targets,” which you’ll find displayed when each level kicks off and at the upper left corner during gameplay. Match 3 or more same-colored items and you’ll complete a target. Complete each level within the number of turns allowed and you’ll move ahead.

Refreshingly simple yet fiendishly addictive! You can also create a special match item by matching 4 or more tiles or combine two special items for a powerful combo move.

Power-ups from matching 4 or more tiles include:

  • Rocket: Clears an entire row or column.
  • TNT: Destroys everything in a two-tile radius
  • Propeller: Clears adjacent tiles before flying to another part of the board, removing whatever it hits.
  • Light Ball: Either swap with a tile to clear all of the same color or tap to remove the board’s most common tile type.

Boosters earned by performing different actions include:

  • Royal Hammer: Removes one tile.
  • Arrow: Clears a row.
  • Cannon: Clears a column.
  • Jester Hat: Shuffles the board.

Is Royal Match free to play?

Royal Match is free to download from both the App Store and Google Play, and you’re never forced to pay to win, progress, or simply keep playing.

You do have the option to buy coins, which can be used for purchasing power-ups, boosters, lives, and additional moves, but you don’t need to pay for coins if you don’t want to. 

There are a number of ways to get free coins in Royal Match, including:

  • Beating levels
  • Sending lives to teammates
  • Completing bonus levels
  • Beating King’s Nightmare episodes
  • Completing area chests
  • Finding in-game events
  • Completing collections
  • Following their Facebook and Instagram pages for giveaways

Can I make money playing Royal Match?

Nope, and don’t trust any website promising otherwise. The web is home to many suspicious URLs claiming to buy or sell coins, lives, and boosters – avoid them like the plague. The game’s developer, Dream Games, explicitly states that they do not provide any 3rd party services for selling in-game currencies or items.

And hey, games are about having fun rather than making money. Not everything needs to be a side hustle!

How to earn gift cards playing Royal Match with Fetch Play

Okay, you can’t make money from Royal Match… but how about the next best thing? Just as the Fetch rewards app helps you collect reward points to earn free gift cards, the Fetch Play feature lets you do the same with your favorite casual games. 

Here’s how to turn your Royal Match gaming into free gift cards from Fetch:

  1. Download Fetch, and open the app.
  2. From the Social tab (which looks like a silhouette of a trophy), navigate to the “Play” tab.
  3. Browse your available game library, and start downloading games; all Fetch Play games are free to download!
  4. Play games on your phone whenever you have a few spare minutes, and earn points for completing in-game tasks.
  5. Once you have enough points (you can view your points balance in the top-right corner of the screen), go to the Rewards tab and redeem your points for the gift card of your choice. It’s that easy!

Why are celebrities promoting Royal Match?

Scores of celebs have endorsed Royal Match – Kevin O’Leary, Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Rick Hoffman, Stacey Solomon, and Olly Murs are just a few. Fair play, who knows royalty better than the British?

Clearly each celebrity considers the game fun and credible enough to associate with their own respective brand – pretty high praise when it comes from someone with the profile and net worth of Simon Cowell. And celebrities are busy people! A game you can relax with for a few minutes at a time is probably a godsend.

More Royal Match hacks, tips & tricks

Using Fetch Play to earn free gift cards is already a pretty handy hack if you ask us, but why stop there? Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just dipping your toe in the water, the right tips and tricks can always lend a hand. Here are answers to some of the most frequently-asked questions we get about Royal Match.

How many levels are in Royal Match?

It’s easy to see why some consider Royal Match endless. There are currently over 8,000 levels, and more are added every two weeks. There is an end, but it’s a long old road to get there.

How to get free lives in Royal Match?

Failing a level means losing a life, and running out of lives means waiting until they refresh. You can have a maximum of five lives at once, and another one comes along every 30 minutes. Run out of lives and you can simply wait a few hours for them all to refresh – that’s part of what makes this a great game for commutes and the odd spare minute.

You can also get free lives by:

  • Joining a team
  • Using coins
  • Taking advantage of daily rewards and other freebies
  • Completing bonus levels

Where are the mini games in Royal Match?

Royal Match can really get the blood pumping and adrenaline flowing, so they’ve scattered in a few mini-games to break things up and give you a breather by playing something with lower stakes.

They’re called King’s Nightmares, rather than mini-games, in Royal Match lingo. When King Robert suffers a nightmare, you’ll help soothe his troubled mind by playing those mini-games for a nice 50-coin bonus when successful.

They appear randomly as you play through each level. The spontaneity isn’t for everyone, but we like stumbling across them as occasional treats.
