Community Insight:
Too bad he started putting ads on that when we paid for it, but we still love the game. Please take the ad off. Thanks thanks.
We had this game a while, recently we tryed to play and it has been filled with awful and obnoxious ads. We originally paid for this game. It had no ads. Is there a way to get rid of them, or is the game doomed.
This is our favorite of this developers games. We love the Egyptian jewel theme. We havent had any issues with it. We appreciate that this developer charges a fair premium price with no ads or IAPs. We really enjoy playing it. Its challenging without being overly frustrating.
We love all of this developers games!! This one does freeze sometimes but its still fun. Beautiful graphics!! We would love to see a new jewel game. Thanks.
Love, love, love this game!Not too hard and not too childish. Just right! No the best part, NO ADS!! Well worth the money for our sanity!! LOL.
Wish there were more relaxed levels because we love this game. It works well, smooth and has nice features. Graphics are classy.
Very addictive. We like how it talks to us but if annoying can turn it off. So much going on.
No freezing for us either. This developer writes fun and challenging match three games.
No freezing on iPad. Smooth game, addictive.
Jewel Drops 2 has 5 levels of difficulty: Relaxed with no timer, minimal gaps, no bombs; Easy with no timer nor bombs; Medium, which is standard or normal mode; Hard; Expert. Have not gone beyond Medium. Music has a rhythmic beat that may get repetitive, but we play in short spurts, so that's ok. Am only on level 17 of Relaxed, but the game is relaxing so far with mild challenges to make it interesting (beat level with fewest moves). Hated Jewel Drops as it wouldn't run smoothly for us on iOS 9.3, but JD2 runs well. We'd recommend.
The Gap Maker has got to be this dev's most innovative baddy yet.
Still freezing up. When are you going to fix the problem? We're going to delete this app and try again some other year. Three years ago, an other Jewel Drops 2 -Match three player said the same thing concerning the game frequent freezing, and we're wondering why there is no update that has fixed this problem. Now we players have to start the level over. We are playing the. Relaxed, no sweat level with the ability to play the level over and over until we've won and can move on. We're not sure the other players in the more advanced levels have the same chance to redo the level over and over again with no in app purchases. Please noteand fix the problem because your game players will end up deleting your otherwise fun app.
We really liked the first version of this game. This one doesn't play as well on an iPhone, but is still fun although buggy. It helps to turn off the messages that pop up congratulating every move and cover the screen, but even then the falcon takes too long to get out of the way and slows down play. On the timed levels this is annoying. We personally like that particular raptor and never felt the urge to kill one before this. There are some issues we think may be only on a smaller iPhone like ours, including some bugs that cause it to freeze that some of the other reviewers have mentioned. One bug is that it will freeze when a crown or jewel somehow moves into a gap created by the gapbringer. Twice on medium, three times on the hard level, and four times on expert so far, it done this when we had apparently won, with moves to spare, but the gapbringer was still active. The game freezes instead of ending. Iphone had to be turned off & back on to restart the game, forcing a replay of that level. As much as we hate the falcon flying in our face, we think most of the bugs are gapbringer related. It just froze on the 39th game of the expert level for no reason we can fathom, then did it again on game 60 of the expert level. There is one bug where it will continue to play but a space will appear to have a nonfunctional gapbringer. This all may be just on the iPhone, BTW. There are 60 games on each of the five levels, and it has frozen on us maybe eleven times in all. We still would recommend this game, just with slight reservations. Our main criticisms are on the iPhone the Falcon is too large, the color renditions are sometimes off on the nets, gapbringer and falcon, and the periodic freezing. Still a really good game. We recommend this developer overall and hope this game can be fixed for the iPhone. We haven't been able to finish the last game of the expert level. It froze causing a reboot yet again. Frustrating.
This game has frozen up three times in 1 week. Why bother playing if we have to reload this and lose all the levels we have cleared.
We usually like these games. This one, however, crashes far too often. Very annoying when you've won the game and it crashes.
Purchased game for use on iPad with fully updated software. Randomly in the middle of a level, the game shuts down. Money spent on this game is money down the drain.
We were so excited to see a new game by this developer, and then the disappointment hit. As stated by another user, the game freezes and the only way to get out of it is to delete it and reinstall. The freezing is random. We hated to give it this rating because we really like this developer, but there was no way to contact him to advise him of the problem and give him the option to fix the bug.
Game keeps freezing up. The only way out of it is to delete the entire game and start all over. Waste of money.
