Free Game Friday: "Bejeweled"
It’s Friday, and you know what day that is. Time for your free game.
Title: Bejeweled
Developed and published by: PopCap Games
For: Windows and Mac OS
ESRB rating: Everyone
The archetypal “match three” puzzle game, “Bejeweled” is a habit-forming brain teaser. The goal is simply to swap gems horizontally or vertically to make a match of three or more; do it right and with a little luck you can set up combos as falling gems stack into more pairs. It’s controlled enough that you can almost figure out the sort of chain reaction you’re about to set off, but random enough that it’s impossible to truly predict what will happen. The game is available in a free browser-based version (as per the link), or you can download a fancier edition with a limited free demo. And if you like it, you can always check out the sequel.
