Thoroughly enjoyed the story line, however the load time for each subsequent level took way too long, and yes the background "yahoos" were annoying. My biggest negative was the S L O W downloads. The rest I could've overlooked, but not as fun as I'd hoped.
I don't recommend this game.

The levels, although boring at first, become hard to the point I give up after "unlocking" gems, over and over, numerous times The flashing gems are annoying as they block the color and shape of the gems next to them. After awhile, you run out of power-ups because so many are needed for certain blocks, and the fun factor is totally lost after that.
I don't recommend this game.

I fell in love with Jewel Legends - Tree of Life so much so that I put it on my iPhone too. Really had hopes that this next edition would follow. My issue is the music which is morose and dull, and so unlike the first game. This was the disappointing part for me. Found the game to be fun and interesting, so for the most part, I bought the game and glad I did. The music is the bummer part for me.
I recommend this game!

Don't remember when I've enjoyed a mahjong game as much as this one. The story line was very interesting, the tiles were beautiful and easy on the eyes, and although the game was short, you can go back and improve on any level you've completed. You won't go wrong with this game if you truly love mahjong games.
I recommend this game!

It is an OK game, but it looks like the developers dug out an old game with old graphics, spruced it up a bit and submitted it as a "new" game. The game is simple enough, the music is soothing but repetitious, but it gets a bit more challenging as you go through the upper levels. Not sure if I will buy this one since it is a Match 3, which seldom shows up these days, but the game just isn't appealing so think no sale here.
I don't recommend this game.

I'd played this game before so didn't understand why it was "Tomorrow's Game" today. True, the sound/music was definitely unappealing bordering on annoying. In spite of playing in Full Screen mode, it was still hard seeing where the squares were that still needed to be uncovered.
Nope, this is not one I would recommend, and I really don't like timed mode although all the games I played I finished long before time was up. This might be a treasure to someone, just not me!
