Bejeweled 2, the sequel of Bejeweled, is a classic puzzle game. This game too has been developed by Popcap games. This popular game is available on the iPhone as well. This game is so popular that gambling websites like king.com and gaming websites too have offered this game for surfers of the web. This game is fiercely contested on all online portals.
Bejeweled 2 will set you back $10, making it one of the more pricey games available for the iPhone, especially as the game can be played (at least partially) for free at many different online sites. Is it worth the cost to have the ability to play it on the go? What if anything is new to this version of Bejeweled 2? Read on for the answers.
If you loved the classic puzzle games of the old which worked on a “simple to understand but hard to master” premise, you will love Bejeweled 2. Understanding how the game works is not very difficult. The game has two modes and you can choose to play the game in either mode. However, the gameplay is not very different in both the modes.
At the beginning of each stage, you are presented with many colored gems on the screen. Your task is to move them around to form chains of 3 jewels. The chain must be made of identical jewels only. If dissimilar jewels are matched, the board shall be reset. Your task is to form a chain every time you make a move. The game must be permit random moves to be made where no chains are formed. This makes the game a lot tougher even though the concept is very simple and easy to understand.
Sounds simple enough, and it is, but the real trick to the game is in setting up combos and larger chains. Much like chess, you must think ahead and instantly be able to recognize how doing one thing will affect everything else that is going on. Simply plowing through the game by matching everything in sight may get you a decent score if you’re fast enough, and you may very well stumble upon combos and larger chains at times, but the game can only truly be mastered by those who can actively ‘create’ their own combos.
The trick to winning a large number of points in the shortest possible time is to create long chains to obtain greater bonuses. Creating a chain consisting of four jewels will result in a glowing gem on the board. Once this glowing gem too is matched in a chain, a bunch of gems surrounding the glowing gem will be destroyed and your points tally will see a big increase. A five gem chain is the biggest chain that you can create. This move results in a super gem being created which, if matched in a three jewel chain, will destroy all the gems on the board. Large chains apart, a combo will also help you increase your points. A combo is created when the creation of a single chain leads to realignment of the position of other gems into chains without any additional moves.
As far as graphics are concerned, they are sharp and colorful and do not distract you from the game. The background images remain static to ensure the focus and attention of the player is not hampered. Creation of a combo or a chain results in fantastic explosions of color. However, apart from this, there is not a lot of activity on the screen to distract you from the game. This is a good thing because fancy graphics and effects only create an obstacle in the gameplay of a puzzle game.
The audio production is much like the graphics, very solid, but ultimately limited in scope. The various sound effects are particularly pleasing to the ears, while the music is very laid back and conducive to thoughtful gaming for the most part.
The lack of any type of score keeping in the form of a high scores list is certainly disappointing, as this is a staple of games of this type, and has been since the dawn of gaming. Bejeweled 2 also lacks any additional modes or variations of any kind to separate it from the many different versions already out there, also somewhat of a disappointment.
Overall, Bejeweled 2 is a good puzzle game. However, this game often seems very random instead of being challenging or strategic as good puzzle games ought to be. It may take months for an individual to master this game which is a good thing. The price is on the high side and those playing this game for the first time may find it too expensive. However, for those have played this game, it certainly is a good choice to keep yourself occupied
