Reviews: What People Think About Bejeweled Classic

Rating: 5/5
…since the “update to 3.1.3,” I can’t open this game. I’ll keep trying and update my review if things improve. 4 days later and lots of negative reviews, nothing has changed. PopCap has really ruined a good thing. 2 weeks later: 3.1.2 is on my iPhone and opens just fine. 3.1.3 on my iPad still doesn’t open. The circle almost closes, and doesn’t. I see other reviewers having the same issues and wonder if this will be resolved. About 3 weeks now: I actually opened the game a couple of nights ago but, the success was short lived. It only opened that once and now we’re back to the same issue. The circle that goes around the PopCap logo doesn’t quite make it all the way around. The game doesn’t launch. I opened a “case” with EA, but honestly, the “techies” there are useless and I don’t think they understand when I explain the issue. Does anyone read these reviews?
Today’s update: if I turn off my WiFi, I can launch this game. So, I go to cellular, launch the game, then turn the WiFi back on. Why is that?
New issue: “Poker” will not open. Other games will open, but all I get is a blank green screen on the poker game.
And, yet another issue update: AGAIN, THE POKER GAME STOPPED WORKING. ALL THE OTHER GAMES WORK FINE BUT POKER IS JUST A BLANK GREEN SCREEN. Emailing the developer is not working. Sure hope someone reads this.

Bejeweled has been with me for a while. My dad had an iPad (that I still have lol) that he gave to me to win him a game. He didn’t actually need help. He was just like my mom, on level 300+ but not on candy crush saga. Couple years later, we just stopped. He deleted the app, (he wanted to delete it, he just got a bit bored and unchallenged) lost all his progress, and passed the iPad to me because he got a MacBook. I reinstalled the app on my phone two weeks ago. Still as I remember, but a bit harder. Zen is my favorite mode. It’s amazing how you can just calm down and match with those soothing noises when the gems clad together or you get a supernova gem. I love Bejeweled, but I wish it wouldn’t crash. The more I use the app, whenever I go into any mode, (Zen, ice storm, diamond mining, ect.) everything freezes. It’s weird, but it’s not too often. Other than that, I’m obsessed. Barely any ads, it’s calming with sound effects (THAT YOU CAN TURN OFF), and so much more. It can be thrilling when your timed, but soothing when you have anxiety. I would rate it 5/5 stars, but for me I don’t like the ever-so-often freezes. Thanks for reading !

I've been a big fan of Bejeweled Classic since I found it included in the freeware that came with my flat-screen iMac over 20 years ago. It's been one of two steady go-to games on every iPhone I've had. I've never experienced the kinds of problems I've seen in reviews here, though there have been UI issues on my last two phones.
All that seems to have changed with the latest update. A big problem is that the game board is suddenly half the size it's always been, an inexplicable change, as far as can tell. It's still playable, but barely. Restarting it didn't change anything, so it doesn't appear to be a glitch. A much bigger problem, however, is that the game now quits abruptly after about 10 seconds.
Deleting and re-downloading didn't help. Just erased all my data, of course, but I'm not real concerned about levels. I reached the end of them a long time ago.
However - I did discover something new. I hadn't seen the developer's privacy policy before. It is, in a word, unrestricted. Tracking and data sharing are completely unlimited. This alone might be enough to make me delete the game. I had no idea over all these years that it was so permissive. My fault, for sure, for not checking, but I haven't looked at the app on the store for years.
So, I guess this is (a long) goodbye to an old friend who seems to have gone to seed or something. I'll sure miss the it.
