Hi All,

Did you have a chance to review the screen shot in the previous blog post to see which move you would make next? If not, take a minute to look at the picture below before reading what I would do.

First of all, here's what I would NOT do.

I wouldn't move the white gem on the 5th row up, because that would remove the ability to do anything with the power gem on the 5th row.

And I wouldn't move the orange power gem on the 6th row to the right because that would destroy my left power cube on the 7th row.

I also wouldn't move the red gem - 5th row, second gem from the left - to the left because I wouldn't be able to use it on the power gem on the 5th row.

The move I would make would be to move the red gem - 5th row, second gem from the left - to the right into the red power gem.

This accomplishes three things. It detonates the red, orange and green power cubes for lots of points. It protects the hypercubes from destruction, and if the gems falling from the top don't interfere, it still allows me to have a move on the white power gem on the 4th row.

I'll try to post more of these problems to keep you thinking and improving your game!

Happy Gem Matching!

Hi All,

I was playing Bejeweled 2 (so what else is new?), and I came across this screen scenario and thought it would make a good "What Would You Do?" puzzle for you.

There is no *absolute* answer here, but I have a reasoning and strategy behind which move I would make next, so see which move you would make and I'll give you my thoughts tomorrow.

I did the screen shot with the "help" arrow pointing at the next move the game suggests, but it's not the move I would make.

Happy Gem Matching!

I am just so excited! I finally finished my new book calle "Bejeweled 2 Secrets!"

I knew from watching all of the blogs, forums and question sites that you REALLY wanted to be able to jump your Bejeweled 2 scores up dramatically, and after playing the game for hours upon end for the last three years, I knew I could help you!

My new eBook has hints and tips and FOUR videos to show you how to increase your Bejeweled 2 scores, PLUS a really neat section called "What Would You Do?" that has sample screens with a potential hyper cube in it, and you can see if you can spot the move you need to make to create the ability to make a hyper cube!

Just click on link below to find out more about my great downloadable book, and start to increase your Bejeweled 2 scores instantly!
