Gems With Friends for Android
On my S8, tapping the Gems icon opens the wrong app half the time. How about fixing the 4x3 ratio tablets like Nexus 9, Galaxy S2, etc. Top row of board is hidden.
Fun twist to the match 3 games. Take advantage of the free spins! Additive. Excellent way to pass time. Definitely recommend the download. Be sure to start game play on your day off. Even if you do start playing on your day off, you're going to find that this little bugger will take control (even if you don't believe it could happen to you, try to stop yourself after a single game in) Be careful
This is a fun addicting game. I wish there was a solo mode. That way you could practice against a computer. It gets annoying waiting for other players to make their move.
Fun game I play daily. But in the last 15 secs of the game it's more difficult to place your tile or the game will place a tile anywhere but where you want it to go.
Great way to occupy time. In app purchases are cheap. Seldom crashes. Difficulty level adjusts to player.
Fun game to play against others and to make your brain think fast, where you have to come up with strategies for the most points
You can only sign in with Facebook. There is a link to use your email but it sends you to the bowels of their website that has no answers... Junky
No matter how many updates y'all do the game bugs get worse. Now it's not working at all.
This game is very fun but it needs a practice mode so you can work on strategies. There should also be level groups beginner intermediate and advanced.
Update: Downvoted to 2 stars due to the input lag issues not being fixed. It seems to be worse now; the game sometimes won't even register your moves, and I recently upgraded to a LG V20. Old review: It's a fun game, but it does have a few issues... One big issue is the game seems to have this lag that causes it to be slow to respond to user input. I'm not sure if it's any better on faster devices (I have an old phone, a Samsung Galaxy Note 2), but it's very noticeable and can cause a player to place pieces in unintended places. There is also a major game balance issue. The Golden Heart power up is way overpowered; it centralizes the game. If you face a good player, they get the Golden Heart and you don't, you're going to be at least 150k points behind at the end of that round. If it happens in 2 out the 3 rounds, then you have lost the game. Also, the Extra Hearts power up is completely useless. It's just a plain old wild gem that has no beneficial effects compared to the other power ups, and you certainly don't need more of them. Tablets are obviously at a speed disadvantage because bigger screen = bigger board, and bigger board = you have to drag your finger further to place a piece. You are better off playing on a smaller device. Last, but definitely not least: Please, for the love of God, ADD A PRACTICE MODE! We would be VERY happy to see that.
Love this game but still would like some extra coins/power ups or something for winning a match. Also, would really like the option for a single player mode for when you are waiting for people to take their turns. I removed a star today because when you go to buy the no ads it says .99 and then when you confirm to purchase it says 1.99.
Is it .99 or 1.99 to remove adds? This needs to be fixed to show correct price and why isn't there a practice mode? I will rate 5 stars if these 2 things can be fixed and added. Other than that I love this game. Great work.
Such an addicting game, but be prepared to shell out a lot of money to buy boosts. It's the only means by which to win, and it'll cost you around $1 per round, or about $2.50 per game. I wish there was a longer game mode available, and one that didn't depend upon 2 people to play. One might have to wait DAYS before another random opponent becomes available. I would play for hours, but Gems simply prices people out of a sense of value for their purchase.
Not sure why..... love this game. Getting a bit frustrated with the coins. Used to get the 3 stars or 3 clovers every now and then but now never. Seriously. Went from 36000 points to just over 6000 in a very short time. Only seems to now give 20 with each spin.
Love this game! Been playing this game for over two years still look forward to playing awesome game. Does cheat u out of spins when they don't register at times.Still love the game!! Want more coins though ugggg.
The implementation still needs work. The app still has a few crash points: "Spin For Coins" continues crashing the program & loading new games sometimes does too. A single player practice modes would be valuable to have when there is no connectivity; I did pay for the app afterall

Just want to play but need to register. I know there is little privacy on smartphones but do not like it when I need to provide more info.

I really enjoy this game. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that the scoreboard hasn't been working correctly in quite some time.
I keep logging in to find that I have a negative balance in coin. No matter how many times I force close or log out of Facebook it is not correcting.
I'm instantly addicted, but Since updating now the notifications of my moves isn't working properly
Great game but I still don't understand significance of the stars. I can't find helps to play better. Also don't understand how scoring works.
Game is really fun but there needs to be prizes awarded if you win the game. It takes so long to get coins. There needs to be another way to obtain besides spins and buying them

So far I love the game no issues. I am not sure if I like always looking for someone to play. I guess it's alright.
I am stuck on this game... But when I do my free spins it freezes & kicks me off so I have to respin..
Please stop starting games for me with people I don't want to play with. Mmmkay? Thanks!
Used to love this game but you destroyed it with those obnoxious stars that float up the screen: WTF WERE YOU THINKING UNINSTALLING AFTER HALF A DECADE OF LOVING THIS GAME
Very fun game, im fine with the ads especially since it helps keep the game free, Would love a solitare game in which to practice, also would love a longer game that depends more on stratagy then speed. Thank you for the game
Will not let me start a game with a friend unless they accept it really sucks it also will not load or let me get out of the free spin without logging out and then back in.
Wicked Awesome, once you get the hang of it. Took me a little while.
Addictive, my Sister introduced me to this game, now I can't stop playing it, my everyday goal is to beat my previous score.
Big fat ZERO!!! F- New update worse than the last. Can not start a game, coins still missing and can not send messages to a player. No bugs were fixed, just created more.
I removed this game from phone...only to reinstall it(months later) and get hooked again.
I can play this all day! Would give it a 5 star rating but it's constantly crashing, restarting and freezing on my HTC One M8. Its hard to find people who will play against you and finish the game until the end. I've read other reviews and some have said you need to make purchases to play. You don't need to spend a cent, the free spins are incentive to play. Please just fix the game.
I really enjoy this game. I think it is very under appreciated. The free spins are usually enough to buy the boosts you need to score big, but the mechanic seems a little broken. I'll use 20-30 free spins and barely win anything, then I'll be away from the game for a few days, come back, and 3/5 spins will be jackpots. I would give this game a higher rating, were it not for the annoying Jimmy Dean "nuke the sausage" ads. Also, a single player practice game would be nice.
Fun game to play, but it should be better. When you play someone how about each of you get the same gems and puzzle. What a concept. I wind up losing even though I out played my opponent just because they got better gems. Very disappointing.
