I've not really ever been one of those people that gets addicted to online Flash games. Generally when I'm in front of my PC I tend to play bigger games. Thus I never really played games like Bejeweled. However, if you've ever gotten addicted to those sorts of games, you'll love Diamond Twister.
I've officially lost almost an hour or so playing this game. It has a fun little plot about stealing precious gems which takes you to 8 different cities around the world. Each city features 8 levels in which you swap gems to create rows of three or more of the same type. You get a variety of bonuses for getting four in a row, or several combos in a row. You have a target goal that you must reach before the time limit is up. The goal is in the form of a cash value, that correlates with the number of rows you have completed.
The game is pretty straightforward, and is highly addictive. When you fail to complete a level in time, you may simply restart it without any penalty. Of course you'll generally get some sort of snide comment from your “boss” about how he shouldn't have trusted you. One cool feature is that you can rotate your iPhone, and the direction that the jewels drop will change.As you complete the levels you will occasionally unlock a new mode of play. These lend to the replay value of the game, which is fun for just a few minutes, or to lose yourself in for a long time. Diamond Twister takes up 46.1MB, and costs $4.99.
