PopCap Launches Bejeweled HD for iPad

Sat, 19 May 2012 14:10:26 +0000

PopCap Games‘ Bejeweled, undoubtedly one of the most popular multi-platform puzzle games, has been on iOS for a while now, starting with Bejeweled 2 and continuing with the semi-recently released Bejeweled 3. The only problem is that the game had not been optimized for the iPad until now, as Bejeweled HD is now available on the App Store.

Bejeweled HD takes full advantage of the new iPad’s Retina display and otherwise functions just like Bejeweled 3 for the iPhone/iPod touch. The new title is selling for $ 3.99 a piece on the App Store right now, and it’s really a great buy if you’re a fan of the series or just entertaining and time-killing puzzle games in general.

PopCap Finally Releases Bejeweled HD on iPad

Sat, 19 May 2012 04:54:29 +0000

Bejeweled is probably the most popular mobile game out there, but for some reason, PopCap has never actually released it officially on the iPad. It’s been out on the iPhone before, and of course you could play it on Apple’s tablet, but it has never run natively. Until now, that is — PopCap has finally released Bejeweled HD, which means you can now play the grandaddy of gem matching games in full Retina Display style.

The game is now $ 3.99, and it’s got special modes like Diamond Mine and Butterflies, four special gems to put together, and all of the usual extras that we’ve seen in Bejeweled games before. If you think the price is high, PopCap has sales on its titles pretty often, so we may eventually see it drop, but keep in mind this is an iPad title, and PopCap usually tries to keep those up as long as possible.

Daily iPad App: Feed Me Oil HD

Fri, 18 May 2012 05:53:53 +0000

Chillingo’s Feed Me Oil was released a little while ago, and it’s a solid game that didn’t get a ton of press when it first dropped. The reason for that is probably because it’s somewhat similar to Where’s My Water, in that you’re trying to get a fluid simulation into a certain place on the screen by tweaking physics-enabled objects in the world. But while Where’s My Water was all about digging, Feed Me Oil is much more about creation — you place objects like platforms and wheels in the world to try and get the “black gold” flowing where you need it to go.

Like pretty much all of Chillingo’s other titles, there is lots of content here to play through: Lots of levels and puzzles with an increasing number of objects to use and move around to your heart’s content. And while the game is on the iPhone as well, it’s much better on the iPad — the graphics are bigger and the objects are easier to manipulate in the game’s space. Feed Me Oil is an excellent game, and especially because it’s on sale today for completely free. Check it out.
