There are so many free online flash games on the internet, and their topics are really diversified. There is a game for anyone, no matter their hobbies and preferences. Some of the games are really funny and even dumb, while others are more serious and require some intelligence and concentration. And the most famous games from this category are the puzzle games. They are really interesting and addictive games, that have simple controls (usually you have to use just the mouse) and that have all sort of tasks and activities that will put your mind to the test.

Bejeweled is one of the most famous puzzle games and it is played by millions of people every day. It can be played by a child, by also by adults when they want to take a break from work. The game is not that difficult to play, and the rules are quite simple. There will be on the screen a lot of gems of different colors. Your objective is to swap one gem with the one next to it and to form a vertical or horizontal chain of three or more gems with the same color.

When doing this, those gems will disappear and you will gain points. The bigger the chain of gems is, the more points you will get. And you will have to make as many points as possible before time runs out, or before you complete the level objective.

The original Bejeweled game was made by Popcap Games company, but there are many other games inspired by it. One of them is the “Bejeweled 80 days”. This game is inspired by the famous book “Around the world in 80 days” by Jules Verne, and begins with a story. So you will travel from one city to another and discover cool adventures. After the first story, and the dialogue that takes place in London, you will begin the game. The rules are the same: you have to swap tiles that are close to each other to make matches of three or more with the same color.

The clock will show you how much time you have left to finish that level. You also have to drive all the item pieces from the board to the bottom of the screen, by getting rid of the tiles underneath them. When matching four tiles or more you will recharge and upgrade the power-ups that will help you in the game. To collect bonuses also free them through the bottom of the game board. As you make matches you will slowly open the stamp that is under the game field. You will complete the level when the entire stamp is open. And there will be a stamp with each of the cities you go to. So after all this is a really fun game, that will keep you busy for hours. Enjoy it!
