Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 2 - Collector's Edition

What a beautiful solitaire game with this maritime theme, it's also with tons of levels, so you have a lot of time to spend on. Some of them are quite difficult but still I enjoy this solitaire so very much. I have all games of the Jewel Match Solitaire series and this is no doubt one of my most favourite ones.

Enjoyed the separate areas. Being able to play the quest line and to also being able to play each separate type. The scenes created are very nicely done.

Love this game. Very relaxing to play on breaks. However, the game randomly quite or doesn't start correctly.

It's a fun solitaire game with lots of extras, but it keeps closing randomly between screen transitions which makes it frustrating to play, since sometimes you can't even click on the first game you want to play on the map without it shutting down immediately. Still, it's fun, it's not perfect, and I'm unable to find any helpful information online about how to stop it from crashing, but would still recommend it since apparently it works just fine without crashing for my mom.

[i] My Experience [/i] Oddly enough, I didn't get around to trying [b]Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 2[/b] until this year. I thought that I was basically current with developer Suricate Software's solitaire releases, but this one had passed me by. However, I was able to find it dirt cheap during a recent sale since it's now essentially three years old. Although I initially thought that skipping [b]Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 2[/b] was an oversight, after starting it in earnest I realized that perhaps I did purposely skip it upon its release. While [b]Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 3[/b] included a very fun and playable Match-2 mode, the second game in the series included nothing outside of the +1/-1 levels that I was interested in seeing. This doesn't mean that extra modes aren't included - only that they aren't ones that grab my attention. I'd tried Suricate Software's "supersize" levels in a different title and found them to be more frustrating than fun. They take forever to complete, which makes it feel even more punishing than normal if you fail. I also ran in a level in which I couldn't remove a seal covering a stack of cards because there were no cards left on the table with the necessary suit. I suppose this is a liability when the designed layouts are composed of random cards (and I only had to restart the level on this occasion to shuffle things up), but it still felt like a ridiculous situation. While I still appreciate the undersea aesthetic (and may still pick up [b]Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 4[/b] - especially since it also includes my beloved Match-2 mode), [b]Jewel Match Atlantis Solitaire 2[/b] just doesn't bring enough to the table to set it apart from Suricate Software's other releases. If all you're interested in are more levels it will do the trick, but certainly don't expect anything above this bare minimum.
