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.

So, how does Gemsweeper work? Your goal is to rebuild an ancient Mayan city by solving a series of over 225 puzzles. The puzzles are made of 5×5 up to 30×30 tiles that are all faced down.
