    About as good as casual games can get. Perfect gameplay, ultra crisp graphics, catchy beats, extremely easy to just pick up and play.

    Just don't show it to your mom/sister/girlfriend if you're sharing the PC, because you won't be able to get to that PC ever again :D

    It is the time for a review. I have hit almost 8000 hours... Okay, so lets not talk about how much of my life I have wasted on this game. What we should talk about is how cool the game is. Its casual, easy to play, no microtransactions, and just a good game overall. I like to play it with youtube or netflix open and just chill while I play watching a movie or something. This game gives a new meaning to "Netflix and chill". When I got this I expected just a game that I would play every once in a while... But I play it ALL the time. Awsome, adictive, casual, and fun. Nice for arcade gamers aswell.

    What more can you ask for for 4.99?
    10/10 wasted my leif on gaem IGN

    Guys, guys...

    This game is evil!
    The very core of evil I am telling you.
    How come a sane person kills hours and hours of her precious time, staring at a frog which throws colored balls out of it's mouth... and actually identify with it otherwise?

    I remember my high school nights, instead of going out and drinking until the next morning as all my other friends did, (Was it the game or was I too much of a geek? Anyway;) I played this game! For hours! As the levels got higher and harder, I felt the satisfaction of being this good at something.
    It gives you the kind of feeling that you manage to catch that plate right before it hit the ground you know?

    Also, I find this game as therapeutic since it doesn't allow you to think of anything else but your next move.
    Well, since this game was one of the first ones I searched for when I got into Steam...

    Okaythegameisgoodarright!

    Get it! Play it! Serve the evil forces for all I care!
    We shall see eachother on the dark side my chicka.

    ^.^

    The SteamPlay icon says this game runs on Macs. It lies. Okay, technically it *does* run on old Macs; the system requirements list "OS:OS X version 10.5.8". That doesn't mean "or newer", that's just that release. So if you're still rockin' Leopard it's a good game and probably one of the few that will run on a system of that vintage. Or it's great if you have a PC, which is where all my play has happened. Newer Macs, don't waste your money. Thumbs up for the game itself, thumbs down for the misleading labeling of supported systems.

    Great game with a simple concept, I played this years ago and just loved the gameplay then, and I still love the gameplay now. It's easy to just pass the time or to tell yourself that you'll stop when you finish a level, nope, it's a game that'll keep you on your feet

    Another addicting puzzle game courtesy of PopCap. Though I don't like it as much as Bejeweled, this is still an easy-to-pick-up game and is fun for a few hours.

    IDK why, but I just really like PopCap games. I love the classic feel and they're all really simple, fun, and good-natured games.

    Ok, I will say this once cause it is totally true! Excellent game that brings the childhood back. This game is so f***ing awesome. I remember when I used to play it in school, my computing teacher let us to play it when we had finished, this and other games, but this was special because besides I played it with my friends I also competed with them to see who was the fastest. The game didn't save up so we had to start from the beginning, but so easy the first levels. In my house I downloaded it and started to play, I was almost a whole Saturday, and reached the third temple in a very little time, obviusly I died but I never gave up. When I realized it was in Steam I put in mind to save and buy it in a near future. And now I am here playing it and remebering my childhood. This game was the inspiration that gave me to become a gamer, this was the exact game that made me to realize how much I like games and play them. Is this type of games that looks so easy to play but when you keep moving and moving forward and trough the game, the difficulty increases and so your experience and cognitive coordination of hand-eye and viceversa. I highly recommend this game to those new gamers, this turns into an addiction believe me. Until you don't finish it ou won't leave it and that happened to me, Unfortunately a virus ruined my computer and I couldn't keep playing but I still remember perfectly well this game, all the stages and the final level (which I passed only once and at the first try) and the tricks to beat it. You will never get bored of it! I assure you. I thank my teacher to show me this game and to PopCap to bring it to life, excellent work. The mentioned before made me into what I am today, a dedicated gamer that loves videogames and to play them with my bros.

    Very laggy if played fullscreen... impossibly small if not played fullscreen. (Fullscreen is basically the original 2003 game letterboxed.)

    I was hoping to play, as it's still a fun game, but the lag makes it impossible.
