You have a time limit to complete the board, and points are given per match. As you do so, more jewels fall to fill in the space just vacated. Considered a timed “match-three” style game whereby you are given a grid board full of different coloured “jewels”, you try to match three or more of the same colour vertically or horizontally to clear the board. When I started playing Jewel Quest, I realized I am no stranger to this type of game. A CD game, I installed it on my PC and went to town. Jewel Quest is one of those games the hubs found for me on one of our thrift shop runs this past summer. This season, my go-to mindless casual game is Jewel Quest. And sometimes, I need something non-caffeinated, non-medicated… and, frankly, non-boozed to get me to relax a bit. Call it anxiety if you will, but my mind never stops thinking. Well, okay I’ll speak for myself…I do! Anyone who knows me in my personal life knows my mind goes in 17 different directions in a normal day. Sometimes, in our preoccupied lives we need games that are mindless time-wasters.
