Current opinion of this game
Bejeweled for the DS. Basically.

It's Bejeweled.

That's basically all you need to know about this game...though I did play through all the modes just to see if there was anything interesting. There isn't. Well, I'm being a bit unfair here, the game is fine. It's just that I didn't see any special IN ADDITION to everything that Bejeweled has. If you love Bejeweled, get this game.

Ok, since this GameLog won't be having any more entries, here's a list of fun stuff I found in this game:

1. Some modes/challenges require that you collect certain amounts of certain animals. (animals = gems in Bejeweled). The animal faces are animated and when you are lacking in a certain kind, the expression on the animal's face changes to being really grumpy! LOL.

2. There is a fun mode where you have to complete 10 challenges in a row, as best you can. At the end of each challenge your boss rants at your incompetence. It's been a while since a game insulted me so! Very bad! You suck! I actually thought this was really funny and enjoyed it...

3. The interface is great. Really easy to use...

While I won't be regularly playing this game, I'll definitely carry it around since it is very accesible. I also think there's a two-player mode that I'd like to try out sometime...
