I love build and gather games but this whole game after level 2 revolves around trying to keep camp fires going. I have no interest in a game where every two seconds I have to stop and relight the camp fires. I quit after level 7. Wish I had my money back as I will never go any further in the game or finish this game.
I don't recommend this game.

I own this game and I can not tell you how many times I have played from beginning to end and it is a long game. You start out in your lab which as you accumulate money you buy artifacts for. These items also increase your wisdom and popularity. You can also buy Spells which are really power ups to help you if you get stuck but you also get power ups on the boards for certain matches such as 5 or 6 match. There are also Awards, 54 in all I believe. I have never been able to win all the Awards. The boards are easy to see and play. Some boards repeat themselves as the one where there are bubbles on the bottom line and you have to get the bubble to the top. I can't say enough good about this game, I just love it and wish there would be a sequel. As always give it a try to make sure but I think you will enjoy it! I highly recommend this game.
I recommend this game!

I do agree that the game is slow. The matching could be faster when you switch tiles but I did like everything else about the game. The graphics are great and I enjoy building games. The object is to build an empire bigger that the King's so you can marry his daughter. I played on normal and got "Perfect" several times which means I finished the board before I lost any stars at the bottom of the screen where the timer is running. A Perfect takes you to a Maya God and you choose a bonus globe. The bonus is not revealed until you click on the globe.This is a buy for me.
I recommend this game!

I downloaded the game, opened it, keyed in a name, selected a mode and then the first screen (board) began. I immediately got out and uninstalled. Really, still with the moving boards! I wasted my money on the last Jewel Match with moving boards, not again. I do not recommend this game.

Concept really good. I liked the story line and was excited to play but then I played....no skill involved at all. Especially when it came to the matching. Either by luck the cards you needed showed up or they didn't; like I said no skill just plain old dumb luck which on one hand I had none. After playing it about 5 times and running out of cards I said "Enough". There are too many games out there better than this to spend my money/credits on.

I own all the other Jewel Match Games and have enjoyed them (some more than others) but this is the first one where I wish I could get my money back. The moving board is distracting and does not follow your last move as the instructions say it will. Do not believe the reviewers who say you can stop the board from moving. You can slow the movement but not stop it. I am on level 22 and cannot get anymore buildings to open. They just stay locked. I tried playing the bonus game to try and open them up but that did not work as you cannot clear the boards. You keep running out of moves and have to start the game over. In a word "Aggravating". I am done playing and will never waste my money on another Jewel Match!
I don't recommend this game.

You have to hold the right mouse button down to fill in the dead cell(s). You cannot switch to cross out boxes and then switch back. I found this cumbersome not to mention very annoying and only lasted about 5 boards when I gave up. I also did not care for the side bar. I kept thinking there should be more to see. It was like the bar was cut in half, distracting.
I don't recommend this game.

The game does not allow you to make matches while the tiles are falling. So there is no way to plan ahead of the sand tiles. There is a match and you are trying to make it to keep from more tiles from turning to sand and the very tiles you need for the match turn to sand since they are frozen as tiles fall and you cannot make matches. I sure wish I had my money back and they had their game back! :(
I don't recommend this game.

What a horrible boring game. I love Frogs and was excited to see this was one. My excitement only lasted until I had played a couple of boards. The objects are easy. The story non-exsistent. Graphis poor. Please do not waste your money on this one.
I don't recommend this game.

I am surprised at all the 5 star reviews. I thought this was a terrible game and regret buying it. It take forever to fill the vials which look like test tubes. I was so bored because you are on the same board forever as you try to fill the vials so you can move on. I played this for a couple hours after buying it and have never played it again. In my opinion it was a waste of money.
I don't recommend this game.
