Jewelinx

Jewelinx is a gem-matching puzzle game focused on building high-scoring combo chains. You drop gems onto like blocks to make them disappear, but simple matches incur a block penalty. You can also arrange non-matching gems to break as many as possible at once, setting off chains where two becomes four, four becomes eight, and so on.

Game modes

In GAME-A, you keep stacking for as long as you can and try to build large combo chains. Your scores accumulate and can be used to unlock new block types. In GAME-B, you start with a set number of blocks and try to destroy them all before the screen becomes overrun. Both modes let you adjust the stage and difficulty.

Stages and blocks

The game has five stages, four difficulty levels and six unlockable block skins. Its puzzle play calls for quick, forward-thinking moves, alongside 8-bit visuals and sounds inspired by late-1980s handheld games. A nostalgic chiptune soundtrack accompanies the action.
