1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

Bejeweled is perhaps the brightest shining gem of casual PC gaming.

It can be played on Plants vs. Zombies, too! PopCap, the devs of both games, added a version of this and Bejeweled Twist as minigames in PvZ.

Anyone got a favorite "more involved" version of this?

Or more specifically, how is the new Puzzle Quest, if you've tried it? Is it good, unlike all the mobile-centric later PQ games that came out over the years? Because until now HuniePop/HuniePop2 were still the best Bejeweled variant, IMO, but I've not tried PQ yet.

Might and magic : clash of heroes by far, but the story/overworld bits in between the actual gameplay take too long.

I really want a version of Bejeweled to kill time with on my phone. But all that seems to be available is the usual heavily monetized mobile slop.

Bejeweled Classic is the app you want, at least on Android. The app itself is free and then you can pay the $3.99 or whatever it is to remove ads permanently.

A few adult games made me realize I like the base concept of the game if it finds a way to feel rewarding and doesn’t ratchet up in difficulty (eg, mechanics that cover half the screen in stones)

Still haven’t really located a game that applies the match 3 formula in a way that makes me want to keep playing. EA’s touch is definitely one of those souring aspects.
