Now there are things called Currents, which are like rivers that run down the board, and the gems move down them to potentially create matches. We thought it would be awesome if the board were interactive. So, in our game, you collect things called SkyGems, that you can use as ingredients to build power-ups-as opposed to having to pay for them.Īnother way that we’re evolving the game is by changing the board, which is normally a pretty static piece, although there might be challenges like clearing a crystal or destroying a stone. But we also wanted to evolve what it means to play match-3. The matches feel good, there are lots of great visual effects, the audio is spectacular, and matches have the same gravity and weight that you expect. We’ve taken the classic match-3 mechanic that we created with Bejeweled and maintained the quality that we’ve been known for. How is Bejeweled Stars different from previous games?Įssentially, Bejeweled Stars is a game about playing how you wish to play. This game is a manifestation of all of those ideas. It’s part of PopCap’s DNA, and there are a lot of people here-including myself-who have been thinking about how to bring Bejeweled to the next level. The inspiration for Bejeweled Stars comes from our passion for the Bejeweled franchise, how we think of Bejeweled fans, and how match-3 has evolved over the six years since we last launched a Bejeweled title. What inspired PopCap to make a new Bejeweled game? She talks to listdaily about bringing Bejeweled back, competing in a genre it created, and how PopCap excels in making games fans can connect to. Heather Hazen, the game general manager for Bejeweled Stars, has been at PopCap for eight years and worked on various Bejeweled titles.
The game, available for iOS and Android, takes the classic match-3 gameplay and combines it with a number of new features for a fantastic and fun experience. It has been six years since we last saw a new Bejeweled game, but PopCap is still wowing the mobile gaming world with the recent release of Bejeweled Stars. Match-3 games are immensely popular right now, and that’s all thanks to Bejeweled, which originated the gameplay and helped make PopCap Games one of the most recognizable companies around.
