Jewel World Skull Edition Reviews

This game is essentially the same game as Candy Crush Saga and all of the other virtually identical knockoffs. It’s fun for awhile, but if you play long enough eventually you encounter levels that are basically impossible to solve without resetting hundreds of times or spending money on tools that help you pass the level. Presumably this is an effort on behalf of the developer to bully you into spending money on a “free” game. This title is slightly less obnoxious about this than CCS, which is why I ended up playing it longer, but the whole business model is completely asinine. You get stuck on a level you can’t beat, play it over and over until you’re frustrated enough to spend money, buy a couple of icepick tools for a few bucks, pass the level, and your reward is…to advance to another level that can’t be beat without spending money. I would much rather just pay for the game up front and own something I can play and enjoy than be endlessly subjected to this kind of forced upsell. The “freemium” model needs to just hurry up and die already.

This my second review. The ads that appear at the bottom of the screen interfere with the game because they cover the bottom row of play and I can't see the jewels under them and can't play well. I used to love this game but now it is totally frustrating! I am deleting it from my device and will not play anymore.
Disappointedly yours

I like this game. It helps me pass time and challenges me with different puzzles. I had to reload the game recently and start new. I have noticed some of the special skulls don’t show up anymore. Only four in a row and five in a row work now. Not sure if I have the same version of the game that I used to?

Have been playing this for several months and enjoyed it, until lately, that is.
You have added some sound effects which I find a little irritating, so irritating, in fact that l don’t feel like playing anymore. There seems to be no way to turn them off.

Until the sound effects came along this has been a good game.

This game is very addictive ... I’ve had it on my iPad for awhile now and hadn’t played it. So while on vacation after an exhausting day, I opened the game and started playing sometime around 9 pm ... Fast Forward to 5 am, when I discover how early in the morning it is and I’ve just missed a night of sleep. Needless to say I really like it!!!

I really like all of the jewel world games. I play it every day. I didn't think I'd like this one but I like it.
I would recommend giving it a try. This is a great game to play it's good for the mind see how fast you can do it. I play JewelWorldSkullEdition and almost to the end gotten all of them without buying any extra tools.

Brought back an older version that is a bit easier and yet still challenging. Bought a few extra tools and can usually make it through all levels again. Love this game

I played this years ago, but my app didn’t support the iOS whatever....I was looking for new match games and here it was again! Of course, I downloaded it, and it’s much more fun now because before there was a NO WIN puzzle!! Now, however, every time I lose, the game freezes up!! It says to tap on the tool, but it’s frozen! So sad that such a fun, un-greedy game is such a failure!

Love the game with the different levels and the speed with which you have to play and the awards of tools, very exciting. Exciting! Love this game! The different levels make it a challenge and fun. Can't wait for more levels to come! Love playing! Love the different levels

What a colorful and forgiving game. I love that there is a time "goal" for each level, but you san take as many moves as you want to get finished. I wish there were a Scramble option however, when there are no moves available, rather than making you use your extra tools. Still fun...

This game is just challenging enough to have to think about some moves. I do wish you could collect more "chances" but I really like that you can hit replay and try again. There are a lot of levels within levels too!

Love this game. It’s my relaxation and favorite game. I’ve played it for a couple years now. Still my go to diversion. However I agree with the annoying sounds/music and mote disturbing now the game randomly freezes. What’s up?

I really enjoy the game. I have never played this sort of game before because it was to complicated, but this is very to the point and fun. The more I play the higher my score gets.

I love this jewel game. It takes me awhile in the morning to wake up and I play this while I have my coffee. In the evenings if, I have had a stressful day at work, it’s relaxing almost zen-like for me. Thoroughly enjoying it. I hope they have more. 😀

This game requires planning ahead and strategic thought. My only complaint is that sometimes it’s difficult to see where you need to clear a space because the background is so dark.

I used to play this a great deal. I moved away to more complex games and stumbled on this again recently. Challenging enough, but also relaxing. Ver satisfying when I beat the suggested time or my own record.

I agree: sound effects are totally annoying with no way to mute. What gives? Please fix!!

I've been playing this for over two years and it still holds my attention and challenges me.

This game is so addicting. I can't stop playing it. True, it is a simple matching game, but there is strategy to go along with it. I could and have lost a whole day playing this game.

I love it because it can be tricky for me but also love it because my kid will play it when we have meetings or long rides where she would normally be bored to death. It is a great game/app!
