Long Game Description
Use your fast fingers and strategy skills in the most glamorous race on the planet, the Monte Carlo Rally of Monaco. Choose from 5 challenging courses and knock out your competitors with match 3 mastery. Grab power-ups, like oil bombs and car repair, to blast rivals and keep moving. Speed to the front of the pack as the competition falls behind, but watch out for snow, ice, oil, pot holes, and other cars that can damage your vehicle and put you out of the race. Cross the finish line first to score big, or sign in to win tokens. Shockwave UNLIMITED members can win tokens and trophies, like The Full Monte or Faster Blaster. What are you waiting for? Hop in your match 3 racer and play Three Car Monte Carlo exclusively on Shockwave!
Game Instructions
Use the mouse to aim and click to shoot balls at like-colored cars to make matches of 3 or more, and clear those cars from the race. Steer your car with the arrow keys (or WASD keys), to get better aim, jockey into position, and avoid dangers like ice, oil slicks, and potholes. Pick up Repair power-ups, and other bonuses, by freeing them from the pack.
See in-game help for detailed instructions.

Yes - shoot like-colored balls at a group of the same colored cars. And you can steer the car with the arrow keys to get the best shot. TIP: shoot often and go for connecting groups of the same color -- leads to massive wipeouts :0)
bluerobbie
This is a very fun member - only game ( Somebody managed to make a match 3 game decent, Finally! )
mjolk
Fun and challenging. Interesting take on Bust-a-Move style gameplay. I like it. Thanks Club Shockwave.
cybobbie
Great game, lots of fun and its quite challenging. Thanks SW for the new game and for being a trophy one.
raventimelord
This is a fun mix of racing and match-3. I love this and I don't even like racing games! Very enjoyable.
Butterflygirl0112
I don't usually like racing games or "balloon pop" type games, but this is a great combination of both and I love it!
kittymin11
A game I can actually win! *smiles* Fun and challenging.
raventimelord
Third place - that's the best I've ever done! Challenging, but very fun. A matching/racing game, what a great idea! I'm really enjoying it.
raventimelord
1st place on two courses. The most delicious veggie lasagna I've ever made, a perfect cabernet, and this. This has been a fine day off. It doesn't take much to please me.
southdakotafox
My new favorite game. Combines the best of racing with the best of bejeweled! Love it!
annsten
surely enjoyed this game even for a 83 year old. It is fun thanks
eviiil
like the game but cant seem to figure out how to get a high postion highest i finishest was like 24th and i am matching everything i think that is
Kevver1
Hi eviil, you are doing great. Just like the real road race, the way to place is to pass as many cars as possible - for this game that means making the biggest possible combinations and making combos often. Good luck! Major wipeouts are fun :-)
emilycook10
I don't get why there are check points and the ending of the race is a waste of time. Please change this.
cybobbie
Something is happening because every time that I win a race he game freezes on the trophy page showing 00000 in the scores, combos, bonus tokens, tokens and so on and this started last week. Hope they fix it soon.
bbsan
Not really my thing, but a a different take on match 3.
emilycook10
I don't know if it's my internet connection but the bonus game loads really slowly. Also, I would like to comment again that I see no benefit to the checkpoints or the animation at the end. PLEASE CHANGE!
plumchiefs
Love this game. Very addicting. But I agree with emilycook10. No point to the checkpoints or the animation at the end of the race. I want to keep going, especially when I am doing so well.
pezperson
ok i love this game and would play it alot more if it did not keep freezing when i win a race. i dont think its counting for anything. i also agree about the check points being senseless.
raventimelord
I play this every day, I do love the game. However, it seems many feel the same as I do: I hate having to stop for those checkpoints!
farmgirlinfl
Absolutely love this game...play it everyday even when I say I won't. Trying to win first in every race!
UKnowWho
Good game. The challenge is to get first place before the third checkpoint. One question - why aren't the high scores visible??
raventimelord
Yes, Uknowwho, I don't get that either. I do wish the high scores were visible for this game.
ErinBQ
I agree, take out those *#$#$%#$ checkpoints. I find my 'cannon' sticks sometimes and I have to shoot blind before I can move it or the car again.
Eckgart
Exciting! Almost thrilling! And most of all . . . BRUTAL!! I think I like it.
farmgirlinfl
This game has me so hooked...I can't stop playing. Lots of tokens if you do well.
Riffsmom
Great game - old game with a new twist. good puzzler.
Refreshment
Superb game for the kids and me....mom of 48!! Whoo hoooo
booksr4nerds
Fun game, but the controls make it difficult to play on a laptop.
98kevin
I just dont get it. It looks like when people make game they dont test it. Hey people!!! you guys need to test this game first. It is so bad, and so stupid, when it freezes you are already hitting the cars, it is not accurate enough, please shockwave take this game out please.
ErinBQ
SW has changed the scoring system. My best score was 1380, now they're like 122, 130.
nickyms77
well i'd like to play but it doens't want to let me.
QuiltMaker
This is a great game...when it works right. Unfortunately it usually bogs down and eats tons of computing power rendering it very jerky and hard to play. Also Shockwave has changed the way the scoring works recently.
dakween
i still love this game but the new scoring system sucks on this one
nitrobunner
why did they change this games to an everyone from club shockwave
manzoj
i played it not a good game . but the first 10 seconds are cool
dahszil
any racing game that demands more than the arrow keys is just too much for my burned out self.
SILENTSLICKZ12
wat i rubish game my grandma can make a better game
huiwen00
I clicked RACING Game and it come out to be a MATCHING game!!! And its really REALLY bad!
Jerseygirl0131
Took a long time to load. Could be a good game because I like the concept, but it needs to be executed better. Gave it two stars....because it needs work.
TyrannyJane
Love the music! Loads smoothly & plays perfectly for me-- and I think it's easy to win. Full Monte trophy for me! Maybe women just make better paintball-race-car drivers. ^^ But I do love that paper-cup trophy you get when you lose....
zylantis
The challenge to obtain high score is now up chance as you have to get the bonus tokens, doesnt matter how you play if you get the bonus gold your laughing, no skill involved, I hope that they put the game how it was before....
huahua124
It's a decent twist on the classic bubble bursting type of game, I like the fact that you're in a race with the other cars as you pop them. It's a good way to spend a few minutes, and it's better than a lot of other generic bubble bursters out there.
ztant
It´s a really nice game. Perfect for spending some spare time on.
videoboy
Placing in this game means nothing. The bonus car is few and far between. I've played 10 times in a row without ever seeing a bonus car.
DrewNik
game keeps freezing once completed :( so do not get any rewards
rhianna9jlo26

I think this game is really cute,it's a shame that each race doesn't last longer and I think it would be better if you could buy some sort of upgrades.New pb or 329 today.
