Gem Drop


aboutfeaturesscreenshotsreviewsrequirementsdocsdownload
Gem Drop is a fast-paced puzzle game where it's your job to clear the screen of gems before they squash you.

Gem Drop was based on "Magical Drop III" by SNK. Modern PC users might want to check out Gem Drop X for Linux, Windows, BeOS, etc.

You grab gems (up to 10) of the same color and use them to knock more gems off the screen. Match 3 or more of the same color in a column and they explode — any adjacent gems of the same color also explode, causing a chain reaction that might cover the entire screen!

The more gems that disappear with one shot, the higher the score you get.

May 1, 2021 - Gem Drop has been ported to C, and compiled with cc65. An updated version of the game, Gem Drop Deluxe, is now available!
