In Butterflies, random gems are designated as butterflies. They all add quite a twist to the gameplay, and one of them I find to be so addicting that it could be it’s own game. The four bonus modes are Butterflies, Diamond Mine, Ice Storm, and Poker. There are quite a few quests to blow through and, predictably, they get harder as they go. I like the latter as it presents challenges to you that are always different from the last one that you tackled. Lining out the rest of the default game modes are Zen, which allows you to play for an infinite length of time without losing, and the Quest mode. They are plentiful at first, but as the time gems become more and more rare, Lightning becomes a very nerve-wracking experience. While the idea is to get the highest score possible before time runs out, it is now possible to extend your timer by breaking specific gems that grant time bonuses. The time attack mode in Bejeweled 3 is called “Lightning” and is fairly addicting. I attribute this to the improved graphics and catchy soundtrack. This mode has received little if any upgrades at all, but still somehow feels fresh. Break as many gems by aligning three or more of a kind together and amass as many points from doing so before you end up with no more possible moves. This gives you quite a substantial variety in terms of how you’re going to play with your shiny little gems.Ĭlassic mode is what we’re all familiar with. While Bejeweled 2 prided itself in having two game modes as well as one or two hidden bonus modes, Bejeweled 3 boasts four standard modes and four bonus modes. I was skeptical at first, but after playing the latest Bejeweled I can safely say that I’ve laid my doubts to rest.īejeweled 3 is everything we know and love from the numbered Bejeweled titles and more. It has been several years since Bejeweled was really even on the tip of anyone’s tongue, and after PopCap soared to even greater heights from the success of Peggle and Plants vs Zombies, it seemed like a strange idea for them to decide that making a Bejeweled 3 was the most logical next step for them to make. “PopCap goes back to their roots to give us a good reminder as to how they own our souls.”
