I've spent some time playing the new Bejeweled Blitz Beta game, and it's a wild ride!

I'll have more to say about it soon, but get ready for a whole new game vocabulary. Pretty soon you'll be talking "flames," "stars," "rainbows," and "amazing speed" instead of power gems and hypercubes.

At the end of your one-minute game, gain additional points during the "last hurrah," where any remaining multipliers, flames, stars and rainbows are exploded.

And for those of you who have a problem with the addiction level of the original Bejewled Blitz, I have bad news for you. The new game is just as addictive!

I'll be adding Blitz Beta strategy tips to my Bejeweled Blitz and Bejeweled 2 guides very soon!

P.S. Here's a tip for the new game: it's easy to get caught up in creating flames, stars and rainbows, but keep in mind that getting and matching multipliers are still the key to the highest scores!

What do you think of the new feature that lets you match without having to wait? I like it, but I can see a few potential timing issues, and also possible misses caused by the gem that you thought was there no longer being there by the time you click.
