Yes, I played the free download until my time ran out, some time ago. It was fun. I really didn't have enough time to figure out much except that when you can't find a match, you need to look for the jewel that is twinkling.
I would like to play more, but don't usually pay that much for a game and it has no people interaction, so becomes a bit "self-centered" and I get hooked too easily.
It is a good game, well done and very good artistically and pleasant sounding "music". I would like to see more Bible based games.

Time flies whether you are having fun or not, so make the best of it!
Downloaded it and played to chapter 2... I have to say that this has to be the first Christian video game that has ever been something I can call "excellent". It is really well done and though it borrows from Jewel Quest and other similar games. It adds a lot more to the genre with its great plot and story mode style.
I will definitely be buying this when my trial expires.

Hmmm... I must be missing something. I found it very boring. The matching up of jewels/candy/etc never interests me for long. And the story line was pretty simple as far as I read... IMO. I think I would like to see them develop a game where you had to answer questions about the Bible (even if you had to look them up) to continue the game. Sometimes, when I'm listening to my gospel music station and they have people call in to answer a Biblical question, I'm just appalled at how little the general public seems to know about the Word. IMO.
The Jewels of Sinai game is really done in excellence, we really enjoyed playing the trial version- but I really am disappointed because we paid the $20 online to get the game and the serial # they gave us to activate the game was invalid. We tried in many attempts to contact tech support and they will not respond to us. So we paid $20 for a game we cannot use.
I hope Bible Arcade will contact us about the problem because it really is an excellent game and I hope they will make more Bible video games in the future.
If anyone knows another way other than the snail mail address to reach Bible Arcade so maybe we can resolve this problem- my family would appreciate any information you could give.
