Jewel Match IV

About

Jewel Match IV is a puzzle game where you swap tiles to create matches of three or more gems. The goal often involves clearing gold tiles by matching over them while navigating obstacles like chains, fog, and locked boxes. As you advance, the puzzles introduce unpolished tiles requiring double matches and wider boards that force scrolling. Matching four gems produces a rainbow gem that pairs with any two of the same color. Five-in-a-row creates a helix that clears full rows. Wizards occasionally assist by breaking chains or lifting fog to reveal hidden stones. The game blends straightforward match-three mechanics with light adventure elements and shifting challenges. Its 2014 release includes 100+ levels across multiple boards, with a story about tracking down a researcher responsible for vanishing magical gems. Community feedback highlights its gradual difficulty curve and the utility of special moves, though some note repetitive later stages. Played on PC, it’s a single-player affair with a focus on strategy over speed.
