Get the gems is self-explanatory from the title itself. Dig through various underground mazes to collect all the gems on the map. But, as you progress, there are more enemies, obstacles and other challenges added to it. It’s a very reactive puzzle game. You must act immediately and time your movements well in certain parts of the game. The simplistic 2D bit-art reminds me of the old, retro puzzle games from the early 2000s on websites like Miniclip, Pog, Armor games, etc. Movements and animations are also very basic, so don’t expect flashy, triple A graphics here. Though I noticed that the FPS on cave 23 gets very laggy, and the only way to resolve it was to change the graphics to the lowest settings. Regardless, I enjoyed Get the gems for what it’s worth; a short thrill ride on an old school puzzle maze games. Give it a try, you may enjoy it too.

I like this game a lot. Its a time machine and brings back such great memories of games. Unfortunately, Im stuck at level 11. Ive been overwhelmed by the sheer number of creatures. But Im not giving up. The game is great for anyone who loves old school games. At the low cost, a recommended buy.

Get The Gems is too difficult for my liking. The main problem is that the levels are way too long and you have to collect too many gems to pass a single level. You start all over again because of one single mistake. Each level is also timed which makes it even more ludicrous. The creatures move way too fast. After 7 hours of game play I cannot even make it past level 5. I might come back to this game in the future when I am more patient and wise. For now I give it a thumbs down.
