I played the hour trial and immediately used a credit to buy this game. A bit less intense than the Chronicles of Emerland, but the same style of play. The mini games are fun a little break in the action and keep you playing. I am not big into pirates or anything but I really like the visual look of the game, cute but not too cute. This game is not overly mentally challenging, but still keeps you playing because it's just so engaging. It's definitely worth checking it out and a good use of your free credit for sure & probably worth paying for too!
I recommend this game!

Believe it or not this is the first game I played from the Jewel Quest series. As I am back tracking now to play the whole series, I can say that this is one of the best. It is challenging, frustrating but also tons of fun. I admit I really don't pay too much attention to the story line, but the boards kept me engaged. All sorts variety between boards and different types of challenges make it impossible to step away from. The only negative is that you can't make any moves while jewels are dropping, this gets frustrating when playing with timer, but I am fairly certain the timer stops during this time as well. This game is also very re-playable so a sound investment for sure.
I recommend this game!

This game is a unique style of match 3 that is so much fun. The storyline is better than most. This game is infinately replayable and a good length to boot. At the sale price of $2.99 it is a steal.

This is my first time playing any of the Mystery P.I. series and I am hooked. This is a HOG in a nice setting. No creepiness and no wandering around, just great scenes and looking for stuff. The game is challenging but not overly so and the scenes are crisp and not "junk pile" style. The mini games are a good break from staring and keep you sucked into playing. I highly recommend this game.

This game is tons of fun right of the bat. It's a game where you can sit down to play for 15 minutes and realize it's been hours in no time. The match 3 game is fun and there is definitely some strategy involved. I never played the first fishdom and started here and I am glad I did. I can see players of all ages being into this game. I definitely recommend adding this game to your collection, you will not be disappointed.
I recommend this game!

This is the perfect game to relax with. Not as intense as many games are. The hidden object scenes aren't the toughest around but they are still fun. I often play this game to "warm up" before I dive into the tougher more serious games. I am going to download the sequel and I am sure I will be just as thrilled.
I recommend this game!
