Bejeweled 2 Deluxe

When you first see this game, you don't think about it much. You'll probably think "ah, a classic" and proceed to ignore it. But then you might think "I wonder how it will be like playing this in 2024?" Then you buy it. You download it. You open it up. You'll think "damn, this game looks aged". You see the different game modes. You start playing classic. You start to get the hang of it. It's very simple and easy, right? But then you try action mode. It's the same thing but timed. You see the timer at the bottom of the screen. You match jewels, you earn more time. But once that bar gets low, you think "fuck, am i gonna die?" Then you find a match at the last second. Then you see another match. Then one of the special jewels explode, earning you many points. You catch up on time. You get stuck on this continuous cycle. Until it finally happens. You actually ran out of time. Your score gets shown and you think to yourself "that was pretty fun". You close the game, thinking you'll forget about it. But you don't. It stays on your mind. "One small game won't hurt" you say. Then that small 10 minute game turn into 20. 30. 50. An hour. Two... You think you'll stop but you keep coming back for more.
Anyways, good classic game :D

I would say in a joke for that i love this game, but this is one of the first and most important video games of my life. Discovering Bejeweled 2 was the first time I ever enjoyed a video game this much during my early years. While it may just be a small thing now, this is my all time favorite time waster, even going back to the countless amount of times I've purchased Bejeweled 2 on almost every platform. Beautiful game I will say!

I mean, it's Bejeweled we all know and love, but with more modes and the impetus of the series' tried-and-true cosmic space setting in future Bejeweled games... except 3 which uses a medieval theme for some reason
I consider 2 as the best of the series by a nostalgia standpoint

Beautiful soundtrack, solid and addictive gameplay. Not much else to say.

Good Fun, Love the Nostalgia. Who needs any other match 3 game

Fun object-matching game. Nice music and backgrounds. Good for relaxation. The puzzle mode is my personal favorite.
