Sandi Crystal Ball has joined the ranks of YouTubers to release their own game. The 26-year-old YouTuber, who runs the channel CutePolish and boasts over 2.5 million subscribers, launched her free mobile video game Polish Blast on October 23, 2015.
Developed by Red Piston, Polish Blast is a tile-matching puzzle mobile game (a la Candy Crush Saga), where players have to match at least three nail polish bottles of the same shape and color in order to level up. The mobile game boasts 140 levels, five different game modes, and Facebook connectivity so users can easily compete with their friends. Available for iOS and Android, Polish Blast also features a cartoon version and voice of Ball instructing gamers on how to play.
Ball, who’s partnered with StyleHaul and recently signed a content deal with Michelle Phan’s ICON Network, said in a video how Polish Blast is “the perfect combination of both of my favorite things,” which are (of course) nail polish and video games. The YouTuber and polish expert also explained in a release how she wanted to make Polish Blast “as cute, colorful, and magical as possible.” “But what I wanted it to be most of all? Fun. You’re seriously going to have a blast playing it!” Ball said.
So far, fans have responded positively to Ball’s game, tweeting pictures of their gameplay using the hashtag #PolishBlast:
