Quest (kind of like an RPG, minus the characters, story, dialog, or combat, or anything else RPG-related.Classic (regular Bejeweled, but now better-looking!).This is where I come in, thanks to this handy cheat-sheet I printed out and stapled to my dog’s head as I type this. You may want to know, for example, what you’re getting in Bejeweled 3 that you couldn’t get in 1 or 2. I rest my case.īut perhaps you want a few details on what it is you’re actually buying with Bejeweled 3, other than the satisfaction of knowing your purchase will spark a dudebro-like high five amongst the bean-counters over here at PopCap. Meanwhile, those gems in Bejeweled 3 aren’t going to swap themselves, are they? No sir. Frankly, the landlord can probably wait a few days, and I’m sure there are plenty of leftovers in your fridge if your family starts whining at you while clutching their swollen, distended stomachs. I mean, sure, I suppose some of you “need” to pay the rent, or feed your family, rather than buy the new Bejeweled.
I mean, “need” is such a relative word, when you think about it. I’m going to be perfectly honest with you: Yes, you do. “What do I do this time-Match 4?” “Do I really need to give those clowns more of my money just to swap more gems?” “How much different could they make a Match 3 game?” you may ask.
Now if you’ve played Bejeweled 1 or 2 before, you may be asking why you should upgrade to Bejeweled 3. Within the Poker mode, you are supposed to build a hand by having consecutive matches of the same colours, but it is a game of chance that leaves little room for skill or clever moves.Hello PlayStation.Blog fans, and other citizens of Earth! I’ve got some good news for Bejeweled fans: We stopped watching kitten videos, fixed the hamster wheel, and are now happy to report that Bejeweled 3 is finally coming to PlayStation Network! Huzzah! Some people like the Poker mode, but for many it has too much randomness to be enjoyable.
For example, they may ask you to free butterflies, or get to ticking bombs before the timer goes off. The quest mode involves finding things within the block of tiles. There is also a butterfly mode, and in this mode, you see some of your tiles transformed into butterflies that will move one tile up when matched. For example, they play relaxing background music and noises. There is a Zen mode that allows you to play in a more relaxed setting. People see the puzzle game on demos and videos and figure that it is just another boring puzzle game, so they have added effects to make it look more exciting.
They have clearly been used by the developers to attract new players. There are a lot of lightening effects in this version of the game, and that is not the only flashy gimmick.
There is Classic Bejeweled to start with, or you can try their 40 quest puzzles. There are eight game modes to choose from that were designed to match or compliment the mood you are in. They help you enjoy a richer and fuller gaming experience. One would like to say that the extras were tagged on to give the developers reason to create another sequel, but the extra features do make the game better. It is not a remake of Resident Evil, or a Call of Duty sequel, yet people seem to love it.īejeweled 3 is the third in the series, and the developers have made the game flashier and have added more features and gameplay elements. To say that the reception of Bejeweled 3 was hot is an understatement-it was overwhelmingly positive, which is a surprise when you consider that this is a two-dimensional flat puzzle game with pretty colours.
The puzzle game that people seem to love.
