Bejeweled Twist from PopCap is the most ambitious follow-up yet to the Bejeweled franchise of games. The original Bejeweled was the game that launched the “casual gaming” craze, with game mechanics that anyone can pick up and enjoy, and now with Bejeweled Twist, PopCap has added more depth and strategy with a twisting maneuver.

A New Twist on the Wildly Popular Game
PopCap has sold more than 25 million Bejeweled games, with over 350 million copies downloaded, making it one of the most successful game franchises in history. Bejeweled Twist was four years in the making, and brings an exciting spin on the classic gameplay: instead of dragging the jewels around, you rotate them. The goal is still to create a line of three or more identical jewels, and each successive turn in which you do so gives you a multiplier for even more points. A key difference from the older games is that you don’t have to make a match with every turn.
The graphics have been updated as well, with new backgrounds and animations. The graphics are crisper and more modern while still retaining the fun, colorful look of the old games. The new game exhibits a high level of polish and production values, including nice animations in between levels, fun explosion effects when power-ups are used, and extras like being able to watch an instant replay of high-scoring matches.
Four Different Play Modes
Bejeweled Twist features four different play modes: Classic, Challenge, Zen and Blitz. Classic mode lets you progress through increasingly difficult levels where you try to create jewel chains before a bomb detonates. Challenge mode creates specific tasks for you to complete, such as destroying ten gems in one move. In Blitz mode, you frantically try to accumulate as many points as you can within a certain amount of time. And in Zen mode, you can play a relaxing game without any obstacles or timers.
There are various power-ups that can be used for higher scores, such as a lightning gem, which you’ll receive by matching five gems at once. The lightning gem then eliminates the entire vertical or horizontal column or row where the gem is located. When a you get consecutive matches to max out the chain meter, you’ll receive a fruit gem that destroys all same-colored gems.
Like all great puzzle games, you’ll be surprised how fast that time flies while playing Bejeweled Twist.

If I had found and played the online version of this one I never would have waisted my money on it. But, at the local Wal-Mart they had several rows of these in the PC Game and programs area so I thought I’d try one. The first one that came out is a lot more fun and a bigger challenge than this one ever will be. I’d take it back and get my money back on it if I could. But on PC games and programs, no refunds if the package is open. Any who, I think the game stinks and is very boring.

This game delivers what you expect it to. It has an easy stree free level where you can just match the jewels without worry and of course if you like it tense then you can play with the restrictions. I prefer the the relaxed version.
the game comes with a user friendly how to option in case you’ve never played before but it really dosen’t take much to figure out on your own. The graphics are good but what exactly do you want from bejewled? This is just another good solitare state of mind game thats good for wasting your time if you can’t think of what else to do. Overall very good and still addicting.

This game is an out and out blast. The graphics and music are fantastic and the gameplay is extremely addictive. I’ve only been playing it a couple of days but I’m seeing jewels in my sleep! I love the new games and variations on what you can do with your puzzles. It’s amazing they were able to squeeze this much gameplay into the original concept. Very, very imaginative. Highly recommended.

My wife is totally into Popcap Games, and often plays Bejeweled when she talks on the phone (that’s multitasking, baby…), so I got this for her. Other reviews have mentioned all the different features, so I’ll just add that this is a fine followup to the original game. A little more complicated, but more fun as a result. It’s totally addictive, and the hours will fly by before you realize it. I wish I had a dollar for every hour Bejeweled has wasted in this house, but I wouldn’t take any of them back!
