If you fill the Chain Meter all the way twice you’ll receive a super charged fruit gem! Bear in mind though, that one non-matching twist will result in your Chain Meter going back to zero. This multiplier can be increased all the way to 10. Each match you make increases your Chain Meter, which in turn increases your multiplier by one. You generate more points by making consecutive matches. You earn points every time you match the gems. The aim of Bejeweled Twist is to create a match of 3 or more gems, when there is a match the gems disappear and new gems drop down.

Tapping with the stylus or buttons twist the gems in a clockwise motion. It’s a reasonable array of modes to play with, but considering how simple the Bejeweled Twist premise is, there should be at least another two more modes alongside the expected multiplayer functionality. Classic mode is unlocked the first time you play Bejeweled Twist Zen is the game to play when you want a relaxed session (there are no Bomb, Doom or Locked gems to contend with) Blitz is a quick game which contains loads of Bomb, Doom and Locked gems, whilst Challenge mode has you attempting to advance across 13 planets completing various challenges. There are 4 game modes on offer in Bejeweled Twist. Hopefully Bejeweled Twist will be an entertaining entry into the puzzle genre. Usually puzzle games are quite a niche market, because they are based on a simple premise. That’s right, you can play Bejeweled on your trusty DS. For all you lucky puzzle lovers out there, may I take the time to interrupt you from your Sudoku or crossword to bring you the good news that Bejeweled Twist is on the Nintendo DS.
