One last thought before going to bed.

I am on the last section, I think it is called Temple de fuego, and there are these two gems embedded and they just will. not. turn!!!

Aargh.

And at 12:25 I have no clue if infernity is actually a word and nothing short of money will induce me to look it up.

Ha! I’ve gotten through it a few times, but now I’m stuck on the very first level again. I don’t think it’s mathematically possible to clear it. I still keep trying, though.

I just wanted to say that I like the word “infernity.” It’s a perfect combination of “infinity” and “infernal.” It also sounds a bit like “eternal.” So if you seem to be stuck in Hell forever, you’re not just in the underworld–you’re in infernity.

I bought it. I rarely buy online games, but I bought that one and I bought **Magic Ball 2** , which is like \*\*Arkanoid \*\* only easier…and well, I miss those hazy crazy days.

I like it…but not liking it enoguh to spend $20. It’s basically a bejewelled clone, and I can play that for free.

It’s not a Bejeweled clone. It is Bejeweled times 4.

Yeah, I bought it. I’ve never seen a version you can play on the web, only ones that you have to download and play for an hour. Can you link it?
