Description

A faithful web revival of the classic Bejeweled 2. The artwork and sound effects are the originals, extracted from the Android release; the game itself is re-implemented from scratch in vanilla JavaScript on an HTML5 canvas so it runs in any modern browser - including on a phone, a tablet, where it can be added to the home screen and played fullscreen.

Background

The game was made with the assisted of Claude AI.

iOS App Setup Instruction

Quick disclaimer: Android users can always get the vanilla game by installing the APK file, so yes you are being left out on this one.

Before we get started, open the webapp version on Safari browser, because apparently only Safari can do this.

The version of the game on this current page is not a webapp version, make sure you only do the next step once you open the webapp version of the game on a new tab.
