Gem Battle




Summary

Game Battle is a game similar to the well-known Bejeweled. You must match three or more pieces of the same type either horizontally or vertically by swapping two adjacent pieces. Pieces may only be swapped if their swapping will cause a match. However there is a twist on the classic mechanics – Gem Battle is a competitive two-player game. Players take turns making their matches while also trying to empty the opponent’s health bar. They can do so by matching up sets of bombs, which do damage immediately, or match up stones and collect them to throw at the enemy. Another special feature is abilities. As each player destroys more gems of each colors, they fulfill the requirements to fire off different abilities, which use up the allotted gems and deal significant damage, heal themselves, alter the opponents gems, or even alter the board itself.
