Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Sonic Frontiers However, it's still pretty pricey.Įvery Nintendo Switch Online N64 Game Ranked With all its Mii support and multiple modes, it's the best alternative. Whether you'll like Jewel Keepers: Easter Island is dependent on whether the multi-coloured elephant in the room Bejeweled is worth 1000 Points. It's cheap, but it would have been good to have a multiplayer function – even a poor one – considering the lack of modes available in the game. Along with the small matter of price, this would give it the extra edge over Bejeweled, but sadly there's no multiplayer element. Something which could have extended the life of the game would have been a multiplayer mode, online or otherwise. This, and the angry Professor "H" making an in-game cameo to remind the player that "You cannot do that!" should you make a wrong move, which while brilliant unfortunately gets tiresome after a while. It is, however, soulless in that this is the only thing setting it apart from games like Bejeweled. Of course, the theme does provide a diversion as well as befuddlement, and the combination of music and backgrounds ties it all together. It also would have been Bejeweled, but that's besides the point. This does help pad the game out and keep it interesting, although to simplify the game would have been better. A good point is that there are many, many levels within the story mode – over 40 – and the story stretches throughout. It's presented well, but the controls and various different types of jewels are a bit fiddly. Power-ups includes horizontal and vertical jewels to remove entire lines, and bombs that remove whatever colour the meter stops on. Rather than filling a combo meter to move to the next level, you must turn all the squares gold that is, involve every square in a combo. As you move on through the story mode, the levels become more difficult, either through grids with awkward shapes or jewels that can't initially be affected, and free play mode allows you to play around on those levels that you've already unlocked. There are two modes: story mode and free play. It's all very tacked-on, and demonstrates why puzzle games don't have stories. It also includes a pointless story: a bizarrely furious-looking man named, simply, Professor "H" attempting to save an anonymous victim of something or other along with his son and daughter. So with Bejeweled 2 on WiiWare already, why buy this? For a start it's 500 Points, half as much as Bejeweled will set you back. That's that, save for a few inconsequential parts: the core game, like any good puzzle game, is simple, and very addictive.
