Jewel Quest is a 'match 3' puzzle played on a grid filled with
various tokens, such as diamonds, gold nuggets, coins, and skulls. The
player may swap any two adjacent tiles, as long as the swap results in a
horizontal/vertical line of three or more matching tokens. The matched
set disappears, allowing tokens to drop into the gaps from above; if
more matched sets form as a result, they disappear as well.
Whenever tiles disappear, the background grid positions turn gold.
The player must turn every square on the board to gold in order to
complete the level. Failing to do so within the given time limit, or
reaching a situation in which no more swaps are possible, costs one life
and sends the player back to the start of that level.
As the game progresses, new variations are introduced to make
gameplay more difficult: irregularly shaped grids, squares in
hard-to-reach places, tokens that must be matched multiple times to
clear them from the board, and so on.
