Best $20 you will ever spend Dec 08, 2010
By Ryan
Is there anything this game can't do? For only 200 megabits of space, it is unbelievably amazing how much this game has to offer. The HD graphics are out of this world. And that's right from the start menu, to the actual playing of the game.
Bejeweled 3 has 8 different games you can play. 4 of them which you can play as soon as you begin, and then the other 4 games you have to unlock by completing different challenges through out the other 4 games. I have unlocked 2 so far. Which were fairly easy. The other 2 to unlock are a bit of a challenge. Another amazing new feature are the number of badges you could win while playing. You can also build up in rank the more you play.
4 Basic Games:
*Classic Mode - The classic Bejeweled game we all know and love. This part hasn't changed at all. So hardcore Bejeweled fans will be pleased.
*Zen Mode - The endless version of the game that we also adore. However prepare to adore it even more. (Oh, yes! It's possible) The new zen version now has an option that it is just too good to be true. Can't stand the music of bejeweled? (Why anyone would is beyond me) Well, now there is an option to replace the music with actual relaxing sounds of nature. Yeah, you heard me. It's like having a sound machine on your computer. So if the music doesn't do it for you, perhaps the different sounds will please your ears.
*Lightning Mode - You only have a minute to to match as many gems as you can, but some gems have extra time on them. Match an extra time gem and it adds an additional 5,10, or 30 seconds to the clock.
*Quest Mode - The brand new main feature that makes Bejeweled 3 what it s. In Quest mode you have 40 different challenging puzzles to complete. Definitely time consuming!
With all the different ways to play as stated above, it's pretty fair to say that this game is highly addictive. The endless possibilities of the game are so entertaining that it's quite difficult to become bored while playing.
My only somewhat complaint is the music and backgrounds. I am not saying they are horrible. On the contrary the music and backgrounds are very relaxing to listen to, and look at. But you don't get the exact same euphoric feeling that you did from the previous versions of Bejeweled. The music and the background themes are very child like fairy tale oriented. Nothing wrong with that. It's in no way annoying. But what I loved about the older versions of Bejeweled was that relaxing trance like music, and tranquil backgrounds that made you feel like you were taking a slow trip to a futuristic paradise. This version lacks that experience. While the music and backgrounds on Bejeweled 3 are still very nice, the feeling you get from them makes you feel like you took a trip back in time by a few hundred years. Which is just not my cup of coffee (I don't say tea because I don't like tea)
Overall though this won't fail to disappoint any fans of the older Bejeweled games. The creators have definitely outdone themselves, and the game is worth more than $20. So if you're looking for a cheap, but very fun way to relax. Look no further. Happy gem matching!

Best waste of time ever Dec 14, 2010
By Z. Kootbally
"Kalucard"
Best Bejeweled so far.
The developers put so much effort into this game, sound effects, special effects, mini-games, ...
I was very impressed by this game. The AI is very well done for each type of mini games. My preference goes to the game with butterflies, you really have to think to make it far, very challenging.
Anyways, if you guys like this type of game, give it a try, and for this price, you won't be disappointed.

Best Bejeweled yet Dec 12, 2010
By T. Hiemenz
"seabreeze14"
This is by far the best Bejeweled I have played to date.
We have been playing this game since it's beginning and I definitely like this one the best--even better than Bejeweled twist.
I do not know how long it will take to get bored with this game but it looks like it is going to be a long, long time.
If you have enjoyed the past Bejeweled games you are going to love this one--it is definitely a keeper!!

Bejeweled Gamers Will Not Be Disappointed Jan 10, 2011
By Kathlyn Storey
"Kathlyn A Storey"
It is truly difficult to tear myself away from the game to write this review. Why do I love it?
1. It loaded like a dream onto my Windows 7/IE 8 computer and does not need the disc for play. Plus, I haven't had so much as one technical problem in playing this game.
2. There are four "basic" games, plus by superior play, you unlock four more.
3. Although you may not need them, you get to earn "stinking badges." Some are pretty easy, and others will challenge you, although generally speaking, I suck at these games. However, I am persistent have now earned one in each category, although not all at the maximum/platinum level.
4. The graphics and sound are great. These games especially make a lot of noise when you blow things up. It's really fun.
5. I wouldn't hesitate to get this game for any of my grandchildren, but it's pretty addictive.
Back to the game.
