Fun but not worth $30

Jewel Quest is a fun game - the story line that provides that background is pretty lame. 98% of the game revolves around solving "Bejeweled" type puzzles of increasing difficulty. Pretty fun

MY only complaint is that at $30 Jewel Quest is one of the more expensive games for the DS. In fact for an additional $5 you can buy Zelda.... which is more of a true game. Jewel Quest is more along the lines of a game you would buy for a cell phone. It is fun and is great at killing time - but it isn't too in depth.

Pro's

- Fun puzzles can help kill significant time on flights.
- The DS stylus works very well for this game
- Lots of variety in the puzzles
- I like the use of the "Gold Coins" that allow you to complete one unmarked spot.

Con's

- A little expensive for the game's content - I think $20 is more appropriate but to each their own.
- The "story" is more annoying than anything.

As a whole - not bad - definitely worth buy if you ever see the game discounted on Amazon or on a discount shelf at a local store!

Challenging feat for the adult puzzler...

I like this game as it is along the lines of super collapse, the old tetris for the 1st generation game boy (which I had back in the day), and the luxor games. This keeps one challenged and entertained for hours as you try to get further into the complex and harder levels. It's replay value is there; once I get to the final level, I can see myself starting over and doing this again.

Nintendo fun

I became "addicted" to the Jewel Quest 2 game on my computer. However, when the computer screen kept freezing partway through the game, I had to give up the computer version. Now, I have the DS version, and have become addicted again to this matching game....Much more interesting than the Brain Age game.

good

It is fun and challenging. I specially like that it gives you little pop ups that tell you about new challenges that come up in every level.

Great Christmas Gift!

I bought this game for my mom for Christmas. She loves it! My only complaint is 2 days before Christmas I found this game in my local game store...for $14.99, brand new.

Jewel Quest Just Like the PC Game

This Nintendo DS game seems to play just like the PC version that I had sampled. I only gave it 3 stars because as you get up in levels when some of the "Jewels" are covered in "black tar" they don't show a small hint of what the color of the jewel is making matches almost impossible. Otherwise it is a good game.

Fun but a little pricey...

I've played this game on my computer before and always found it fun and sometimes challenging, but a $30 tag price makes it one of the more expensive games for the DS. :-(
Besides that, an addictive and time killing game worth having.

its more challenger!

My husband & I, both, have DS'es and we wirelessly link up and play this game almost every night - it's fun AND addicting! The play-alone story version is fun & challenging, too! I highly recommend this game to anyone - young & old!

Bewjeweled but more challenging!

I was surprised when I was reading the previous reviews at the complaints about price, and yes $30 is a lot. But, once I got hoooked, I completely forgot the price! If you like bewjeweled, you'll love this game. It's the same concept of moving gems, but as you move on in the story the puzzles are more challenging. You have odd corners to try and remove as well as jewels covered in stone that you have to break open in order to reveal the stone within and remove that line. You can also earn coins by getting 3 in a row which will remove any jewel you choose.

I agree, its a bit on the higher side of DS game prices, but if you're a fan of these types of games it is totally worth it! A great, challenging and addictive game.
