Boring mix of Match 3 and HOS
Help to find the oracle of Ur in Mesopotamia.
Graphics are ok, VO is well made, but too much talk, music is very tiring - endlessly repeats the same.
Only one level of difficulty - and pretty easy. You can not skip tutorial - spoken and written !!
HOS are easy, and start with 3 hints. If you find three gold coins on scene, you win one more hint, and, besides being able to use the three when you want, if finishes, fills fast. No penalties to random click.
Collect gems to purchase "more help" (remove jewel or shape, time, free swap) in Match 3 - which is formed with boards that you collect in scenes.
Mini games easy and well known.
Pop up and VO all the time, explaining, helping, etc ... very annoying !
It has three characters, when the first ends the investigation, the other begins - in the same places! All the same.
I quit !!

.......Because I am a fan!
I liked it, why? Only because I have always been a fan of the Jewel Quest series. Am I dissapointed? Yes! Only because I found this game lacking in challenge from its predesesors. I can imagine that this game would be ideal for those who have not yet played the earlier Jewel Quests, who enjoy Match Games and HOGs as well as have an interest in Archeology. You will have alot to read and unfortunately alot of interruptions from dialogues and instructions. There is only one play mode and the graphics are poor making objects very difficult to find. The only real challenge are with the HO scenes, objects are tiny and obscure and with the poor graphics, finding some of the items is next to impossible. The music is just plain annoying, on a loop that really gets on your nerves. There are V/Os and you play three different characters on your search for the treasure. Your journal gives you lots of facts and if you are not a fan of reading, this is not a game for you. There are jewels to collect for money and coins for hints. Once you find pieces of the jewelboards, you play the Match Games that offer you power ups. Like I said, beginners will enjoy this because the gameplay is relatively easy compared to what I played in the earlier installments where I usually ended up tearing my hair out in frustration. I am curious as to why this game did not meet standards that I expected however, as I am a fan, (and you would have to be one to buy this), I will spend a credit for old time sakes and continue on my journey to find the Oracle of UR. I really cannot full heartedly recommend this game and will say this....only if you are a fan and want to continue on with the series.

Sorry
The idea is good but didn't fulfil the promise. I don't use the sound but the graphics were good. Progress was slow because of interuptions & hand holding. Maybe ideal for newcomersbut I only managed 12minutes before feeling sleepy. Sorry devs, keep the idea simple - I feel that you are trying too hard to impress.
You'll never satisfy everyone but you missed the mark this time. Don't give up

Jewel Quest Mysteries: The Oracle of Ur
Hidden Object Puzzle / M3 game.
HO scenes are NOT junk pile. I think that term is misused quite regularly. You are searching rooms, not a pile of stuff or a box of stuff. Items are very cleverly hidden but not frustratingly so. Items aren't small, they are the correct size for the environment.
You also need to be on the look out for -
gold coins (x 3 gives you an extra hint# and
gems #which help out in the M3 games) and
shards of the M3 board
M3 games are timed but whilst not being a great M3 fan, I had no trouble finishing within the time given.
Puzzles aren't unique but better than some I've seen.

Not worse than earlier J Q Mysteries, gets quite hard later
I've played all the Jewel Quest games, and I don't agree that this one is not up to the others. I've now finished the first chapter, and there have already been some tough mini-games. The Jewel Boards are getting harder also.
It is a forgiving game, in that the HOG scenes are not terribly tough, and hints are available. There is a timer on some of the jewel boards, but you can buy extra time. Mini-games are infinitely resettable and skippable.
To me, the mix of puzzles, match-3 boards with unusual features, and attractive HOG and "fix the mechanism" scenes hits the spot. I don't mind the somewhat excessive dialog, and the less than stellar story.
Not the perfect game for the action addict, for sure, but a nice relaxing game for a more laid-back player, except for a few of those frustrating mini-games I never want to skip!

S'up to you
I played the whole demo, so for those who didn't, you didn't miss anything. I like HO's and M3's so I liked that bit of it.
The viuals where a bit grainy but the music was killing me. The same thing over and over.
You can't get out of the cut Scenes, but you can fast forward by clicking the continue button.
This is an easy game. When I saw it was a Jewel Quest game, I thought it would be better than it turned out to be. So sad. The storyline didn't seem as good as the other games.

Annoying
I have always enjoyed playing Jewel Quest games, but this is a very annoying poor quality version.There are 2 separate games going on at the same time, a hidden object and a match 3 and they do not mix well. This is a game I will not be buying.

Jewel Quest Mysteries: The Oracle of Ur
My hopes were built up when I saw a new Jewel quest, I love match 3 but this was mostly HO which I'm now becoming bored with. I won't be buying this one.
Give us more match 3 please we have had enough of HO's

Didn't like it. Very long pauses, too much reading. Unable to stop hints

good idea poorly made
The opening storyline looked like a film beginning but sadly what came after it was not up to scratch. The first challenge i could not even complete as what i was meant to do could not even be done. The first HOS was so tricky that i gave up. I managed to play about 10 minutes of it, but i wont be finishing the demo. Very disappointing from a hopeful start.
