Bejeweled 2 Deluxe
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★

Summary - A complete expansion on the original with a cool cosmic theme and a soundtrack that puts you in a flow state. If you are looking for a game to calm the mind, I recommend losing yourself in this cosmic journey.

__The Gameplay (★★★★☆) __
It's a match 3 puzzle game, so the premise is very simple and easy to understand. This game has plenty of modes to choose and from what I can remember as a kid, you will need to play A LOT of bejeweled to unlock everything there is be experienced in this game. The bonus modes are mainly abridged version of the mode they replace and are there mainly to reward your dedication (I love Hyper mode). Like most early Popcap classics, there are a handful of easter eggs to spice up your planetary expedition.

__The Visuals & OST (★★★★☆)__
Obviously cleaner than the last. The theme here is this alien feel. Mix that in with bejewels usual soundtrack that has you feeling transcendence and it all comes together near perfectly. I say near, because the music kind of blends a little tooooo well. Like it all feels the same.

__Over all Rating (8/10)__
This game is a good grab if it's on sale and whether you are new to the series or experienced in the past, it is definitely worth launching into this vibrant classic.

Love the game, hate the fact you can't turn hints off.

gem alert !!!!!
