Chucking light reviews to WP7 games, thought I'd throw my thoughts over here.
Bejeweled is famous all over the gaming world - we're due a BJ Blitz (copyright Facebook!) on XBLA shortly, the original came with most Xbox Pro's, you've probably at least heard of this?
Bejeweled WP7 is a like-for-like port of the main gaming functionality; match 3+ gems and they disappear, match 4, 5, or a 3 twice (that is, using same gem for two matches at the same time) for bonus jewel.
There are three modes available here;
- Classic (complete level of making enough modes; if you run out of moves, Game Over!)
- Action (Timed - think fast! Make moves fast enough to end level)
- Endless (What it says on the tin; pretty pointless, but probably easiest way to clear most achievements, as later levels are very long, and no chance of game over).
Achievements - gets a bit messy. Some will be quick enough to complete Action mode, and walk their way to 'Blazing Speed' - I'm not. Too old probably, beer does things to your reflexes.
In addition to this, the classic Bejeweled grind achievement,
No-one's got it as of today, and I'm 3/10 of the way there; not cool, not at all!
