About Jewel Christmas Story
It may be Christmas by the time you read this but just in case it isn't, don't let that stop you from playing. This game can be seen as a nice holiday pick-me-up during your downtime or during the months when you wish you had a holiday. It's also just a quick and colorful puzzle game to play around with. The more you see the different objects, the more you may think about what you'll be doing for the holidays this year. It can also give you ideas for things to make just because like a nice cup of soothing hot chocolate.
How to Play
Jewel Christmas Story is a 2D puzzle game about gathering different objects for Christmas using the mouse. To make a match, you move the cursor over to an object, hold the Left Mouse Button, and then drag it to the adjacent object to swap them. If it won't lead to a match, then the swap won't work. The goal is to gather the requested number of items as shown at the top of the level screen. If you're unable to get them all within a limited number of moves, you'll have to restart the level.
You'll be placed on a snowy map screen where you'll need to follow a path of levels that unlock with progress. You can check the Target for Achievements or have a chance to spin the wheel for some helpful boosters. When you start the level, you'll be shown a grid that can be of different shapes and sizes. To make a match, three or more objects need to be lined up in a row or column. They'll then be removed from the board and other objects will fall into place. The bigger the number of objects in a match, the more powerful a power-up it will summon like a rocket or a bomb. Once you've gathered the necessary objects, the level will be complete.
Tips and Tricks
Boosters are rare and should be saved for the more difficult or demanding levels. Since this game uses the Domino effect, look for matches that set up multiple matches to occur one after the other. Try to avoid getting necessary items trapped at the top.
