Pros & Cons:

Pros

Fun and Addictive game

Cons

The optimized version for DROID/Nexus One sucks badly…
Recent update removed multi-player

Features:

Bejeweled is the popular gem swapping game on many mobile platforms also available on Android! Brought to you by EA Mobile, makers of Madden football gaming franchise. If you like Bejeweled, also see similar games like Jewellust. Swap adjacent gems to form a vertical column or horizontal row removing them to score points.

Gripe Alert: Bejeweled designed for Android 2+ devices is a really poor release. It doesn’t fill the screen to take advantage of 480×800 screen real estate. Not to mention the recent update stripped multi-player actions… what gives EA Mobile?!? Stay away from buying it at 5 bucks until they make some serious corrections!

The Android port of this sucks full stop. It’s slow and the controls are painfully flawed. The free Jewels games is better than this, though it’s quite plain looking. If you want to buy a jewel game, you can’t beat Jewellust.

Agreed re jewellust (and other variations from same developer) MUCH better than the half-ar$ed bejeweled port on Android.. On WM and iphone it is a great game, but on Android it is a waste of money.

Bejeweled is not available on the Android Marketplace. Frankly it is disappointing admittedly I have a clone on my Droid X, but after having it on my WM6.1 phone Why the heck is there no decent port, in reality there is no port for the Android. EA, Popcap Games, and Jamdat need to rectify this ASAP.
