Bejeweled Blitz - Day 30

I knew what Bejeweled Blitz was about coming into this hobby, but it definitely evolved since I first played it over a year ago. For example, it never had "Boosts" when I first played it. It also didn't have metrics like it does now.

This game was perfect for when I didn't have much time, or was physically indisposed, like walking my daughter around the apartment to get her to sleep. I could just pop up this app on my phone, play a couple rounds then put it away without wasting much brain power or time.

It has proven itself to be a game of luck. You will play 30 games where you will get 25,000 points, but then you will have one game where all of the jewels line up and its like fireworks on your screen with jewels blowing up left and right, and your just sitting there watching your score skyrocket.

It made me very hesitant to purchase boosts. They cost several thousand coins to purchase and only last 2 - 3 games and when you only make a couple hundred coins per game at best, it made me not want to waste them. My highest score was 257,600, whereas some of my friends would score almost 500,000 points. I spoke with them about their secrets and their answer was basically to use the boosts.

The ability to play this on the iPhone was definitely a plus, in fact, I think I only actually played it on the iPhone, but would login on the computer to take the higher resolution screenshot.
