The ‘twist’ of the title refers both to the twist on the original Bejewelled 1 and 2 and also the literal twist of the new method of gameplay. In this version you again must match 3 gems of the same shape and colour, but to do this you now spin groups of 4 gems in a clockwise movement.

Other additions to the gameplay including the addition of bomb gems. They give you a limited number of moves, indicated on the countdown clock on the gem, to include it in a row of 3 otherwise it blows and ends your game. If you don’t like the sound of being blown up you can play in ‘zen’ mode bomb-free.

The game is pointer controlled, with the well sized target areas making it playable for both eye and head control. A 60-minute trial and the full version can be downloaded from: http://www.popcap.com/games/bejeweledtwist
