About this game

Three gems fall. You decide where they land, and what colour goes where.

Column Gems is a fast, clean falling gem puzzle. Slide the column left and right, cycle the colours inside it, lay it flat when you need to, and land it where it completes a run. Match three or more of the same colour and they clear. Everything above collapses down, and if that collapse makes another match, it clears too. Good placement does not just score. It cascades.

THREE WAYS TO PLAY

1. PLAY hands you one stage at a time. Every stage reshapes the board and sets a goal, such as clearing thirty gems, breaking through obsidian, or stringing together chain reactions. The fall speed never ramps here, so the difficulty comes from the board and the goal rather than from a clock. Clear a stage and the next one opens.

2. CLASSIC is the endless game. Thirteen speed levels, and the game reaches them through your score rather than a timer, so play well and it comes at you faster. Your best score is saved.

3. PUZZLES holds over five hundred set boards, grouped into areas of nine. Each one has a time limit and three stars to earn, and every board has been checked by a solver, so a puzzle you are stuck on is one you can still crack. Leave it and move on if you would rather.

MATCH IN EVERY DIRECTION

Runs count horizontally, vertically, and along both diagonals. That fourth direction is what makes the board interesting. A gem you drop to shore up a column can quietly complete a diagonal you were not even looking at. Longer runs are worth more, and each link in a chain reaction multiplies the score of the one before it.

Bombs are in the mix as well. Line up three bomb segments to blow a crater in the stack, or land a fully armed bomb to wipe one colour off the board.

BUILT FOR ONE THUMB

Every control is a gesture, and none of them need precision.

- Drag left or right to move the falling column
- Tap to cycle the three colours inside it
- Two fingers down to lay the piece flat, or stand it back up
- Drag down to speed up the fall
- Flick down to drop it instantly

No buttons crowding the board, and no menus in the middle of a game.

SET IT WHERE YOU WANT IT

Cap the speed, turn bombs off, or leave both wide open. Each of the four combinations earns its own badge and keeps its own best score, because a run at full speed with bombs live is not the same achievement as a run with the speed held down.

What’s new

New PLAY mode. Each stage reshapes the board and sets a goal, and clearing one opens the next.

CLASSIC and PUZZLES now sit together under GAME MODES. The endless game is called CLASSIC.

EXIT is back on the main menu, and the PLAY pause panel has MAIN MENU and EXIT.

Green and cyan gems are easier to tell apart on a dim screen.

Fixed the Back button quitting the game on Android 16, and the board running on under the consent form.
