Bejeweled Stars vs Portal
Bejeweled Stars
Bejeweled Stars offers a fun new twist to the usual basic match-3 gameplay of older Bejeweled games. It adds in exciting power-ups, special gems, cute collectibles, and more, giving its gameplay that extra flair, and its players something to strive towards. The gameplay is quite varied and engaging since there are several new game mechanics introduced, such as the constellation-based rewards system and a Power Lab which allows you to craft your own power-ups using Skygems you collect from playing matches. The game also has a pretty hilarious tune which is played at the end of every level in addition to the brilliant visuals.Bejeweled Stars may be a match-3 puzzle game on a mobile platform that’s practically saturated with games of the similar genre, but this game definitely made a massive effort in standing out… and I like to think that it managed to do so. That being said, if you enjoy a fun and unique puzzle-based match-3 game, you’ll definitely want to play this game!
Portal
Portal is one of the most highly acclaimed and innovative puzzle-shooter game of all time. The game is set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories where players, while playing as the human test subject, Chell, will need to manipulate objects and move through space by strategically opening portals to solve physical puzzles in controlled environments generated by the nefarious AI supercomputer, Glados.Featuring 19 levels in total that gets progressively more difficult than the previous, the game promotes creativity when it comes to puzzle-solving especially in the later levels, requiring players to explore various ways to best solve the level. There is also an advanced mode that drastically increases the difficulty of the last 6 levels. This is perfect for players who want to go a step further to challenge their puzzle-solving skills.
Portal is rather revolutionary in its own way and it's no wonder why the game has been awarded and nominated for multiple awards. If you fancy a fun and somewhat relaxing brain teaser, Portal is the game for you. Do check it out!
