The classic gem-swapping puzzle game now comes to mobile phones. PopCap Games has launched the mobile version of the popular gaming title, Bejeweled Twist with an innovative way of moving gems and amazing graphics.
Bejeweled Twist is one of the most attractive puzzle games and has been a great hit on desktops since its launch. The developer claims that this game has been a top-seller on wireless and on retail platforms. Developed with an innovative style, this game promises to remove the barriers of traditional match-3 games.
The objective of the Bejeweled Twist game is to create a line of three or more gems of the same type by rotating the entire 2×2 block of gems. This game provides complete flexibility to gamers and allows them to rotate the gems anywhere on the board while making combinations, cascades and chains.
Spin and match explosive gems for fun and rotate the jewels to setup electrifying combos. This game integrates an array of new power-ups and obstacles as well as it includes new gems types such as Flame, Lightning, and Fruit gems for fiery explosions and other effects.
“We’re excited to launch what we believe will be the mobile game of 2009 – an amazingly accurate translation that offers truly deep and fun gameplay with tremendous visual appeal,” commented Andrew Stein, director of mobile business development at PopCap. “Bejeweled Twist is a milestone title in the mobile games category: novice players can pick it up and enjoy it immediately, while avid gamers will appreciate the depth of strategy, challenge and the overall flexibility in its gameplay.”
Besides adopting a completely different method of moving gems, it also includes new obstacles like Bomb, Locked gems and Coal. The Bejeweled Twist game includes four game modes namely Classic, Blitz, Challenge and Zen where each mode offers different ways to experience the time killing game.
The Bejeweled Twist game is now available for a wide range of mobile phones from North American and European wireless carriers. There is no word on its price as yet.
