About Jewels of the Wild West

Jewels of the Wild West is set in a quiet, faraway place called Colinstown.

You take on the role of a courageous gunslinger who responds to a Help Wanted ad issued by the townsfolk. Facing off against well-organized criminals is not an easy task, so you'll first need to gain the support of all citizens of Colinstown: from miners and bankers to cow-boys and the sheriff. Only by joining forces and combining your efforts will you be able to fend off the mean no-goodniks, rebuild the town to its former glory, and make it a true diamond of the Old West, which it surely deserves to be.

Your goal will be to become the new mayor of Colinstown, make sure the inhabitants are safe, and oversee renovation work on many unkempt buildings. In terms of gameplay, you'll most often match 3 in a row to complete numerous quests, but you'll also have a part-time job as a builder to help reconstruct this beautiful town. Blast through amazing levels using power-ups, unlock achievements, receive cool rewards, and bejewel Colinstown!

What are Match 3 Games

A casual game refers to a type of video game suitable for players of any background. These titles are simple enough to learn for non-gamers yet challenging enough to keep even renowned cyber athletes glued to the screen. Match 3 is a magic subgenre of casual games that is built upon known mechanics of matching same-color pieces on a game field to score points.

General Information

Levels

Jewels of the Wild West has to offer over several thousand match-3 levels featuring all types of challenges and objectives, so even the most die-hard fans of this genre will find something fresh and engaging in its gameplay. 

Difficulty

Jewels of the Wild West is a game suitable for players of all ages and skill sets with challenges of ever-increasing difficulty. Initially, the objectives are simple and easy, allowing players to get used to controls and learn to hunt for jewels in a match three setting. However, as the storyline progresses, completing missions becomes harder. At advanced levels, players can expect difficult obstacles and interferences that put their abilities to the ultimate test.

Rules

Although there are a lot of match-three games available, the fundamental gameplay rules typically remain constant, and Jewels of the Wild West is no exception. Every level exhibits a field containing 3D gems or jewels of varying colors. During their turn, players exchange positions of any two adjacent pieces to match a sequence of three or more, resulting in a combination. Configured combinations vanish, allowing for fresh pieces to emerge. Each level gives players particular objectives: at times, they may need to eliminate a specific number of same-type jewels, while other instances require them to eliminate obstacles or interact with particular portions of the game area. The complexity of level objectives increases proportionally as players advance in the game. There are means by which you can assist yourself in achieving these objectives, but we'll delve into that further below.

Features and Game Mechanics

Match3 4fun: Using Tools and Boosters

The primary mechanic in Jewels of the Wild West is to match three in a row, which has already been described in this guide. However, sometimes merely shifting jewels on a game board isn't enough to fulfill all tasks in a level. In such cases, you'll discover numerous helpful tools that can speed up your progress in achieving excellent outcomes. In particular, boosters like Shotguns will allow you to remove whole areas of pieces from the puzzle screen, while others like Boots will add more turns to a level. Some of them even enhance your probability of obtaining specific rewards: for instance, Native Citizen's Journal gives you a guaranteed EXP boost for exploring buildings. Which boosters you use depends solely on your playthrough strategy.

City Building

Another vital in-game mechanic is constructing the village, which in time evolves into Western city-building. Erecting buildings in your settlement unlocks new story and dialogue options and reveals new quest chains. For example, rebuilding a Telegraph will let the townsfolk communicate with the outside world, and renovating an Apothecary will improve their well-being. Therefore, you must use resources intelligently, foresee upcoming requirements, and make trade-offs, exactly like a real mayor trying to optimize their limited resources in order to reach the best possible outcomes.

Rewards for Completing Collections

In addition to diverse rewards associated with primary quests, you can sometimes get special collection items after completing a level. If, at some point, you get all the items belonging to a certain collection, that collection is considered complete, and that gives you additional rewards. Immerse yourself in the game and assemble the 3D item collections in their complete magnificence!
