Gem Match is a match-3 game against the clock. On an 8×8 board with six kinds of gems you swap two neighbours so that three or more identical gems line up.
Matched gems vanish, the ones above fall down and new ones arrive from the top. If that creates another match, the chain continues and each step multiplies the points. You have 90 seconds.
Tips
- Look for moves at the bottom of the board: falling gems there are more likely to start a chain.
- A swap that makes no match is cancelled, so it costs only time — but time is all you have.
- Scan for pairs with a gap: two identical gems with one space between them are one move from a match.
Questions and answers
What if there are no moves left?
The board is reshuffled automatically.
How are points counted?
Ten points per gem, multiplied by the chain step: the second match in a chain counts double, the third triple.
