Play Samsung's new match-3 web game for a chance to win real prizes

Samsung has launched a puzzle video game that anyone can play entirely for free. It's called Level with Knox. It isn't a high-budget triple-A game, but a web-based matching game you can play at www.levelwithknox.com. Get the high score and you might earn a new Samsung appliance or smart device.

The gameplay is based on the match-3 puzzle concept. Swipe across matching symbols to advance and score points. Connect seven or more matching symbols to unlock a bukjumeoni power-up that clears the surrounding area and boosts your score. Each round takes 60 seconds.

Is there anything else to the experience? Well, yes. First, Samsung intends for Level with Knox to educate players about digital threats and demonstrate the core concepts of Knox Security and Knox Matrix. The game is intended to help players visualize security in a connected device environment.

Better yet, if you go for the high score, you have a chance to win prizes, i.e., Samsung smart home appliances and devices. The top 10 players win exclusive prizes. And the higher your score, the bigger the prize. And since it's a web-based game, you can play and aim for a high score on your phone, tablet, or PC, wherever you are.

Prizes include:

It's unclear how long Level with Knox will be live. We don't know if it's a permanent interactive experience or strictly a temporary promotional campaign, but the top players already have over 5 million points as of this writing.

Likewise, the game was announced by Samsung Netherlands, who hasn't specified whether players everywhere are eligible to win prizes.

Either way, the game is just as entertaining. If you've been waiting to play a new match-3 game with a Samsung theme on top and have a chance to win some prizes, Level with Knox checks all the boxes. Make sure you check it out while it's still live, just in case it's a limited-time experience.
