    Very well designed and fun to play.

    For a puzzle game, the graphics of Bejeweled 3 absolutely blew me away. It is the most crisp and awesome looking bejewled game I have ever played, and runs fantastically on lower powered PCs even at 1200x1920. The gameplay is as simple and addicting as ever, add to that 8 different modes of play, and you have a well polished gaming gem.

    Bejeweled 3 takes everything great about 2, adds many more modes and goodies, and cranks up the graphics dramatically. Like Plants vs Zombies, this is a game even "serious" gamers should give some attention. The thing that caught my attention immediately was the visual quality - the game runs at *native* 1920x1200 on my PC, and looks breathtaking.

This game actually *uses* your video card, and there are cool warping, scaling, and heat haze effects, as well as beautiful animated backgrounds. There is an addictive quest mode, 4 or 5 more gameplay modes (Poker and Butterflies are great), and lots of "badges" (ie achievements) you can earn in-game. The game is perfection... I can only hope we get a Plants vs Zombies 2 soon that raises the bar on graphics and gameplay the way Bejeweled 3 has.… Expand

    Fun but very time consuming. I like all popcap games but this one can be a little difficult.

    You're only goal is to reach as many levels as you can without running out of matches? Kind of boring and the game gets boring after playing 20 hours straight, nothing seems to change. The three in a row match seems super popular, every time I think I'm about to run out of matches but come to    Fun but very time consuming.

    The three in a row match seems super popular, every time I think I'm about to run out of matches but come to find out that 1 match is still possible, every time. The qube that explodes one specific type of jewel when selected and the four in a row match seem to be getting less rare each level I go up. Getting easier as I progress??

    I'm at 260,000 points on level 25 in ZEN. I feel I should have more than this. Bejeweled is a game with a bunch of different games built inside of it however I don't see much of a big difference with them all, the same objective and concept applies for all of them, nothing different. Music get's annoying after only a few hours, only 2 or 3 different ones in cycle.

    Good point and click game but extremely slow for me... So: 3/10    … Expand

    Before you bomb my house, lemme just explain my low 1/10 rating. First of all, match 3 is probably THE most overused concepts in video games, so bejeweled pretty much sucked, but then popcap went on to make multiple sequels!

    I am very suprised of this game. I never played games like this before. Simply idea, but lots of modes. Simply gameplay, but very catchy. One idea of gameplay is enhanced many ways in this game. There are various elements so game dont loose attraction. Dont believe to who says this game is only for kids and girls. Graphics style is quite childlike, but this game is interesting anyway.

    El mejor juego de puzzle en mi opinión. Un montón de modos de juego, gráficos sorprendentes, una música sobresaliente y una gran cantidad de contenido que asegura horas de diversión. Pero todavía falta un modo multijugador... En resumen, uno de los mejores juegos de Popcap y el mejor juego de la saga.

    Flawless gem of a game. The true Bejeweled title, it can capture attention like no other from the series.
    The OST, as well, is extraordinary. Recommended absolutely!

    There are plenty of similarities between the latest and previous incarnations, but PopCap have achieved their brief of introducing innovative ideas while maintaining the classic Bejeweled gameplay we know and love.

    If you've played any previous version of Bejeweled, then Bejeweled 3 consists of exactly the mental image you're formulating right now. PopCap know they can't fix something that isn't broken.
