Try to find 5 real gems scattered among the fakes. Get bonus money for combos and other moves. Who can get the highest score?

It's a little bit like minesweeper, but it's also different from it anyway. It's a nice game for a minute or two, but that's nearly all.

Minesweeper... But smaller and with gems. I did however enjoy the lack of explosions evil smiley face staring at me.

there's no way to tell which are the 5 real ones when u first start, they all look exactly the same, not very interesting and i dont understand why it only has 1 level, that music sounds like elevator music

Darkmoon500 - thanks for your review. You are right about the first pick - that is based upon luck, but the next ones are more based on deductive reasoning. The original main idea of the game was to keep playing to get a high score, but I'll consider your idea of adding more/different levels.

Mine Sweeper with bonuses. I like it. Would be even better with the ability to get bigger maps or custom sized maps (ie. choose x and y to make X wide by Y tall), increase or decrease the number of "real" gems to make it more challenging.

Music catchy, and not too annoying, The ability to mute is nice.

Alright, but a little simple.

I sort of enjoyed this game. It's an alright skill game with an alright theme to accompany it, but that's about it. It's too simple to grip me for any longer than a few minutes.

If I could recommend, you do have a good, functional foundation on your hands. Some suggestions could be the addition of more levels, different game modes, perhaps a timer, among other things. With some work, this could be a very good game to enjoy for a good long while.

Jaredskye001 - I appreciate your input. I just uploaded a new version of the game where the fake gems will let you know how many real gems are touching it. Kinda like how minesweeper worked.
