This game was incredible! When I finished the game, I was very satisfied with the story and ending as it didn't have any major plot holes and the finale felt like a finale. The story has a twist that actually surprised me. I played on Hardcore, didn't skip any puzzles and couldn't use the map and the main game lasted at least 6-8 hours. I kept thinking, it's going to end anytime and would look at the guide to see how far along I was and I'd still have two chapters to go. Wow! It kept going and going - in a good way. I didn't want it to end AND it didn't! I only needed the strategy guide a couple of times when I couldn't figure out where I was due to taking a break from the game. Thank you Blue Tea Games! Your game was perfect!
A jeweler is tasked with the restoration of some timeworn jewelry, but when he mysteriously disappears, rumors circulate that the pieces may be cursed.
I've been obsessed with getting the "Gold" Bar at the end of each level and have been totally pulling out my hair! I need my Gold Bar!!! This game is not for sissies or people who want a game to relax to. At first I didn't like this game, but I restarted it and went through the tutorial again and it made sense and I've been addicted ever since. Although this game is "Timed" it isn't really - it only awards you with bronze, silver or gold bars - that's it and you have the ability to replay any level to get a better score. This game is a TM game with Match-3 sort of like Coffee Rush but without the Coffee - it's a 3-Ring Circus! Okay, I'm off to play #Grrrr!!!# some more!!! Gold Bars!! Gold Bars!!
I recommend this game!

This is a great little Match-3. I finished the game in about 10 hours of play. Some levels are harder than others. I noticed some of the negative reviews referenced confusion at the beginning levels. I was there as well, but gave the game a second chance and read the "How To" and restarted the game and it made complete sense. After your first 10 levels, you aren't interrupted with the tutorial. Lots of different board set-ups from moving a key to a lock to battles with different types of enemies. Very enjoyable and it has replay options which I'll take advantage of next year.
It's a spinning marble popper game and it challenges me to the core!
Marblez is intense and revs me up so I have to take a break before I can return to play. You do not want to play this before bedtime as it definitely will wind you up. No sleeping here! I was able to get through two levels before I started dying off, luckily it will restart at the level you're working on and not at the very beginning of the game.
I really enjoy this game. I have set up two different profiles and am trying to beat my scores on each level. It's a "linked" match 3 type game with simple mini games thrown in. Tho' this game seems simplistic I try to challenge myself to get long chains to increase my score besides trying to meet the goals of each level. Don't take my word - try it out yourself! It might surprise you....
The only down side: a little pixilated, not crisp for HD screens.

Love the game BUT it has too many issues. Unfortunately, I bought the game enjoying the first few levels. It's almost as though the game wasn't reviewed by their quality assurance department. After about level 5 you'll start noticing missing items, your "dog" helper will change, money will disappear. Also, if you've played other games before playing this game, the speed of the game is very, very, very slow. I had to reboot my pc to get it to play correctly. I played through level 15ish, went back to play again and it started me all over again AND won't let me past level 1. A real bummer.
