Here is the first sneak peak for Gemsweeper 2. One of the new levels – a parrot.

WOW! I very rarely write a review but I just had to say kudos to this one! If you’re a Brainiac for thinking games this ones for you. Both my sons & I deal with A.D.D. but this game keeps our attention … and THINKING!

Thanks to Demmi for this nice Gemsweeper review, posted at Shockwave.

Good observation on Gemsweeper:

While the Minesweeper influence (especially with the title) is evident, after playing the game, almost compulsively, for numerous sessions I have come to the conclusion that Sudoku has at least an equal bearing on the design of the game.

Gamezebo reviews Gemsweeper. And they like it!

Gamezebo has reviewed Gemsweeper and they seem to really like the game. There current rating is 4 out of 5 stars and the user rating is even better 4 and a half out of 5 stars!

Gemsweeper is a refreshingly different (and difficult) game for puzzle fans. It will especially appeal to those who love Minesweeper or other grid games of deduction, such as Sudoku. It does, however, take a good hour or so for it to pick up – but watch out – once it does, it can be one tough puzzler to keep up with.
