This game has nice graphics, and the first few games are the standard match 3 format. Then it switches to a "rotate four" version of the game which is WAY too complex to complete in the time allowed. Each game is only 3 minutes long, and with each level, you have to get a higher score. Well, it is nearly impossible to get 6,000 or more points in a "rotate 4" scenario in just 3 minutes. If there was an option for a "relaxed" mode with no time limit, the game would be a lot more fun. I gave up on it after just a few days and took it off my computer. Another thing that was irritating is that the box indicates there are "Arcade" and "Puzzle" modes, but you aren't allowed to use them until completing part of the "Adventure" mode. Um, this isn't school ! I bought the game, and if I want to go right to the Arcade mode, I should be able to. (Although it does not offer untimed play either).
If you want a good match 3 game that has reasonable time limits, try the second edition of "7 Wonders".

Bejeweled like! Seven Wonders like! BUT,
Much more in terms of possibilities. It has very variation!
Some levels are easy; others are very hard!

Wonderfully Frustrating

7PM turns into Midnight before you know it

Highly recommended - Beautiful Graphics - Interesting Musical Score

I was somewhat disappointed in this product. It didn't meet my expectations at all but I guess for the price it was ok.

Although the game was advertised as compatible with my P.C., it did not function well. I threw the game away. Very dissatified.
