Description

First Person

"Gems of Darkness is Courtland Shakespeare's 1997 follow-up to his 1995 Jewels of the Oracle. Gems is not so much a sequel to Jewels as it is a lush remake, offering refinements in terms of interface and gameplay. This time, the reward for solving all 24 of the mechanical, logical and mathematical puzzles is the opportunity to crack the 25th puzzle and gaze upon the Gems of Darkness. Unfortunately for Shakespeare and for those who like his style of puzzles, the business miseries that plagued Jewels also dogged Gems. Like Jewels, the rights to Gems were bought up by DreamCatcher which currently markets Gems under the title Jewels II: The Ultimate Challenge." - by Bradford Roberts
