Bejeweled Twist

I really enjoyed playing bejeweled twist and I can easily see this becoming among my top games. I love the excitement that regular bejeweled and blitz gives me, but twist is more challenging. Perhaps it is because you have to twist those little gems to make them match before they explode that keeps a player twisting.
Perhaps it is the challenges that keep players twisting in hopes that they will score big. The entire game is challenging which slows down your progress but encourages you to keep playing it to master it.
There are 4 modes of game play classic, Zen, challenge and of course blitz. Watch out for the flame and lighting power gems, they can create havoc or pure enjoyment, and it really depends on how you look at it.
One twist can cause a whole number of gems to fall unexpectedly, which is very neat to watch. When a large group falls, it is hard to see all that occurs on the screen.
Instant replay of your best moves as far as gems crashing, cascades and of course the best removal. This is great for those times when you miss those golden parts of the game where you score huge because you were concentration so hard of winning.
The graphics in this game are very nice, and relaxing. The gems are plentiful, bright, and they shimmer at times.
People who enjoy views of outer space will love this. You will see space dust and stars that appear to move at the start and after you clear the screen, you will be treated to a space show and this includes a space ship tearing through the far reaches of outer space.
The sound effects in here are very nice, and they go well with the graphics. Of course, there is the option to turn them off but trust me most people will enjoy these.
There is music, which is nice, and sound effects when the gems explode. The player has the ability to turn off either of these, and switch the sound levels. I like the music so that level is high but the noise, which is made when the bombs explode, can get annoying at high levels so I turn this one down.
Bejeweled twist adds more excitement to the game of bejeweled and makes it even more addicting. Instead of simply flipping the gems, players need to rotate them and have to watch out for bombs, and lighting power gems.
I love the outer space theme and the animated effects of this game. It is something I have never seen in a game of this nature so that makes it new to me. Popcap games have a surefire hit with the bejeweled series and I cannot wait for the next one to arrive on the scene.
