Game Description

The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 1.2
Jewel Quest III is a puzzle game developed by IWin.com. The game follows up on the storyline of the previous two Jewel Quest. The story of this version goes like this: Rupert and Emma are about to open a museum. But an accident with Natalie, Rupert's daughter, has him traveling around the world in order to help cure her. The game formula is the same as you would expect: you must match three or more figures of the same type in order to change the board to golden tiles. Once the whole board is golden, you have completed the level. The nice thing is that while you are traveling around the world, the game changes a bit. For example, in Europe there are some special fire tiles to break out iced jewels. In China you have to trap monkeys. In South America you play against the AI. These game changes all make the game very entertaining. It contains a huge amount of levels as well. There is a small annoyance with time limits. Some are incredibly tight and will frustrate you more than once. In all, Jewel Quest III definitely improves from its older brothers. |
