always enjoy the mechanical creation themed HO games and this one does not disappoint. not difficult, but not so easy that you get bored.
demo was short so not interested in CE, but is a definite buy when SE is available.
music not bad and voiceovers were minimal and to the point.
I recommend this game!

Gem Boy is okay - reminds me of Ricochet..early levels boring but improve with power ups earned..but if you like paddle ball games, play Treasures of the Deep - imo, the gold standard and best of the best.

No clue why more players haven't reviewed this game and given it top rating. By far, the gold standard for paddle ball games. Patiently waiting and hoping for a follow up..meanwhile I try to top my best score.
I recommend this game!

I'm a fan of paddle ball arcade games but was pretty spoiled by Treasures of the Deep which remains one of my fav games. Gem Boy graphics remind me of Richochet but is far better, imo. While it doesn't come close to Treasures, it is enjoyable enough to play for awhile and the method of earning upgrades thru alchemy is unique. The early stages can seem boring, but give it a chance.. because once you earn a few upgrades, it becomes more challenging and fun. While I patiently wait and hope for a follow up to Treasures, will probably get this game as a back up alternative.
I recommend it to the players who are fans of paddle ball games

enjoyed the demo for its unique concept - a fun break from the usual style - altho it is not challenging, it is cute. not buying the full version because others have said it is a short game. For that reason I don't recommend buying unless you just really love the demo or have a younger player in your household..otherwise I do recommend playing the demo.
I don't recommend this game.

enjoyed the demo and will watch for it as a daily deal. when i finish a demo with as much as 20 mins left, i figure the whole game will be short as well so not a good value at full price.
reviewers are correct that it isn't a hard game, but i rather enjoyed the dexterity tasks that could not be skipped.
i recommend at least playing the demo.
I recommend this game!
