Bejeweled: My Latest Obsession
Bejeweled: My Latest Obsession
A guest post by Jean
I have worked on a couple of projects with Popcap Games over the past few months, but I never really sat down to check out the games. Oh, I have played the online version of Alchemy, but I did not really play with the others that much. Well, about 2 weeks ago I started playing the online versions of Bejeweled 3 and Bejeweled Twist. Since then, I have spent many hours playing with the online versions of these games.
I was asked to write a review of the games so today Popcap Games gave me authorization codes so that I could install the full game on my system before writing a review. So I downloaded Bejeweled, authorized it and started to play….
I have played all of the 4 main games that comprise Bejeweled along with each bonus games associated with the main games. The Classic game is the original untimed matching game. The Lightning game is a timed version of the game. Zen is a laid back version of the game and Quest is a series of small challenges that get increasingly difficult as you go through each level. I like all of them, but my favorites are Classic and Quest and my favorites for the Bonus games are Poker and Diamond Mine. I am sure this is because I while they are still challenging, I get higher scores on them.
As for the graphics on my MAC, I find them very good. I like the Black Hole type thing that happens when you go from one level to the next. It is really kind of neat. When you get it, you will see what I mean. There are some really cool things that happen with the “real” game that you do not experience with the online versions of the games.
You can look at your scores as compared to other folks, the badges that you have won and the stats. I would say the only thing I did not like was the fact that the stats told me how much time I spent playing the games today. Now mind you, I think it is a good feature, I just realized I spent A LOT of time playing Bejeweled today.
Bottom line…. I would recommend this game to people that enjoy playing challenging games. I suspect that I will be spending far too much time playing with Bejeweled. If you need a last minute gift, this is a good one to install on someone’s laptop, mobile or gaming device. Check it out for yourself. I’ll bet you become obsessed too.
