Description
Instructions: Use your mouse to play this game.
Jewelish is match 3 in its purest form. Colored gems fill the board, you swap two neighbors, and any row of three or more that share a color disappears. Line up four or five and you get a special jewel plus extra points, which is where the real scoring starts.
A timer runs through every game, so this one is about how many points you can squeeze out before it hits zero. You will spot it with the other Matching Game titles here, and it is equally at home on a smartphone screen or a big monitor.
Swapping gems against the clock
Click a jewel and then an adjacent one to switch their places. The move only counts if it creates a line of at least three stones of one color. Those stones vanish, the gems above fall into the gap and new ones drop in. Longer lines leave behind special jewels. Keep matching until the time runs out and try to beat your best score.
