Jewel Drops 2

Still freezing up. When are you going to fix the problem? I'm going to delete this app and try again some other year. Three years ago, an other Jewel Drops 2 -Match three player said the same thing concerning the game frequent freezing, and I'm wondering why there is no update that has fixed this problem. Now we players have to start the level over. I am playing the. Relaxed, no sweat level with the ability to play the level over and over until I've won and can move on. I'm not sure the other players in the more advanced levels have the same chance to redo the level over and over again with no ”in app purchases”. Please noteand fix the problem because your game players will end up deleting your otherwise fun app.

I really liked the first version of this game. This one doesn't play as well on an iPhone, but is still fun although buggy. It helps to turn off the messages that pop up congratulating every move and cover the screen, but even then the falcon takes too long to get out of the way and slows down play. On the timed levels this is annoying. I personally like that particular raptor and never felt the urge to kill one before this. There are some issues I think may be only on a smaller iPhone like mine, including some bugs that cause it to freeze that some of the other reviewers have mentioned. One bug is that it will freeze when a crown or jewel somehow moves into a gap created by the gapbringer. Twice on medium, three times on the hard level, and four times on expert so far, it done this when I had apparently won, with moves to spare, but the gapbringer was still active. The game freezes instead of ending. Iphone had to be turned off & back on to restart the game, forcing a replay of that level. As much as I hate the falcon flying in my face, I think most of the bugs are gapbringer related. It just froze on the 39th game of the expert level for no reason I can fathom, then did it again on game 60 of the expert level. There is one bug where it will continue to play but a space will appear to have a nonfunctional gapbringer. This all may be just on the iPhone, BTW. There are 60 games on each of the five levels, and it has frozen on me maybe eleven times in all. I still would recommend this game, just with slight reservations. My main criticisms are on the iPhone the Falcon is too large, the color renditions are sometimes off on the nets, gapbringer and falcon, and the periodic freezing. Still a really good game. I recommend this developer overall and hope this game can be fixed for the iPhone. I haven't been able to finish the last game of the expert level. It froze causing a reboot yet again. Frustrating.

Jewel Drops 2 has 5 levels of difficulty: Relaxed with no timer, minimal gaps, no bombs; Easy with no timer nor bombs; Medium, which is standard or normal mode; Hard; Expert. Have not gone beyond Medium. Music has a rhythmic beat that may get repetitive, but I play in short spurts, so that's ok. Am only on level 17 of Relaxed, but the game is relaxing so far with mild challenges to make it interesting (beat level with fewest moves). Hated Jewel Drops as it wouldn't run smoothly for me on iOS 9.3, but JD2 runs well. I'd recommend.
