PDAmill Updates GameBox Gems: Now with 30% More Sparkle!
Alright, so I made that up. I'm not sure exactly how much more sparkle this set of games has, but the updates are fairly extensive:
� Completely redesigned graphics and user interface
� Rebalanced and updated games with new combos, extras and challenges
� Lots of new visual effects and sounds
� Installation size dramatically reduced
Those who have already purchased the game can now re-download the new version from Handango or the place of purchase. Those who haven't purchased the game yet, but now have an overwhelming desire to do so may purchase it for the staggeringly low price of $9.95. [Affiliate]
In related news, PDAmill has won the Developer of the Year award from Handango! Way to go, PDAmill! :way to go:

Gamebox Gems is truly a really fun game to play with, especially for those Bejeweled addicts out there. The games are really well made with great sound, graphics, and animations.

Yeah, same here - I liked the contrast. They're still excellent games, though. :mrgreen:

I got this game free as a result of my membership to this site. Can't remember if I downloaded from Handago (I think) or their site. Anyway, am I eligible to receive this free update? I don't normally play games, but these are SIMPLY THE BEST! Totally addictive.
My problem is once I have sucessfully installed an application, I delete the email from whomever I purchased. If it was through Handago, would I contact them to see if I am eligible?
Thanx,

Well, I installed and played with it today. It's certainly tolerable, and I'm not going back to the older version, but I still miss the dark contrast and the "menu animation".
