Was Bejeweled originally called something else?
Yes. PopCap first released the browser game as Diamond Mine in 2000 before it was renamed Bejeweled for MSN Games. Bejeweled Deluxe followed as a Windows retail version in 2001.
What is the core move in Bejeweled?
The player swaps two adjacent gems to make a horizontal or vertical line of three or more matching gems. That simple swap rule became the template for later match-three games like Candy Crush Saga.
Which PopCap people are tied to the original Bejeweled?
Jason Kapalka designed the game, with Brian Fiete also credited on the original. PopCap later became known for Peggle, Zuma, and Plants vs. Zombies before Electronic Arts bought the company in 2011.
Which Bejeweled sequel added special gems and a stronger sci-fi look?
Bejeweled 2, released in 2004, added special gems, new modes, and the series' more space-themed presentation. Bejeweled Twist later changed the main move by rotating a 2-by-2 block of gems.
