Here are some Bejeweled Blitz tips and hints for you:
Multiplier - The multiplier is key. Multipliers are made when you get rid of 12 or more gems with 1 gem swap. You'll want to explode a power gem with another near by power gem or make sure that a cascade happens at the same time.
Multiplier - When you get a multiplier on the screen (first make as many as you can), your next goal is to get it to explode. You don't necessarily need to get that multiplier's color combination to do this. If you have a power gem next to it, then get that power gem to explode and you still get the multiplier because the near by explosion caused it also to explode.
Strategy - Your first move of the game should be to look to make a power gem. Take a second and look for one. Many times, the game starts you off where you can easily make one. Get the 2x multiplier within the first 5-10 seconds of the game to score high.
Strategy - One of the best ways to get cascades to happen is play at the bottom of the screen. When you do that, you're a lot more likely to get things above to just sort of randomly happen.
Strategy - Always be looking to create power gems. Always. That's basically your goal. The more you have on the screen, the more likely you are to find combinations that will make them explode. Aviod having them blow up on the side of the screen since the blast radius will be less in that case. Move it in if you have that option so that you explode more gems.
Strategy - Once you make a combination on one side of the screen, immediately look to the other side of the screen where blocks being removed won't affect anything and set up your next move there instead of waiting to see what happens where you just made your move. This saves a ton of time and you don't get "lost" when things didn't work out like you wanted. This is an important Bejeweled Blitz tip for sure.
Strategy - Once nice thing about this version (Bejeweled Blitz) is that you can move gems before the game lets you. Once the game is ready, it performs that move. If things are happening, you can go to another sector of the board that isn't going to be affected by what's going on and make a move in advance and sort of get ahead of the game. Not all versions of Bejeweled let you do this, so take advantage. You can also get in an extra move at the end of the game even when time has run out if you've done moves in advance while time was still on the clock - usually just one move though.
Strategy - One strategy I use on the longer game is to look for combinations based on color/gem. Like like over the whole board and do all the blue ones, then maybe the red ones, etc. If you deplete a certain color, then the game is usually more likely to give you more of that color when it gives you more gems, thus putting those gems near each other. It sort of creates nice groups for you. This might not be the best strategy for such a short game, but try it if you want.
Tip - If you can be patient and try to group like colors/gem together instead of just making single, 3-gem combinations then you're more likely to be able to create a power gem. There isn't much time though, so don't waste it.
Tip - You can get down to the point where there are not a lot of combinations. When that happens, look at the top of the screen where new gems have come in. You're more likely to find a combination there since the game seems to be set up with its own rule so that you never get stuck. This can actually play to your advantage since it'll keep having to make combinations to obey its rule and you can all of sudden get multiple cascading combinations going almost automatically.
Tip - Play quickly. There are bonus points for playing fast. When you make a connection and you hear the higher pitched noise, that means you're making those bonus points.
Tip - And don't look at your score until the end of the game. You might lose focus if you do. You should look at what level your multiplier is though.
Tip - You can start moving your gems before you're told to "Go" but there are some words in the middle of the screen, blocking your view of some gems, so it's best to just move something at the top of the screen that won't affect other good, potential moves below.
Tip - Some people do better with the sound off. I actually like to hear when the game is ending and when multipliers become available. Try it both ways and see which works better for you.
Tip - Don't overthink every move. Just keep playing. One caution about this... I've tried playing the game really fast and my scores drop when I do that. I miss great moves. So don't go too fast. Keep it moving and watch the whole board for what's happening.
Tip - Whenever you get a power gem, blow it up. Don't save it unless you know you can use it really soon - meaning have it blow up in a cascade (which is how you get the multipliers). There's not enough time in this gave to save them up. Often when you blow them up, you get some better gems generated.
Hypercubes - Hypercubes (zaps all of the color you choose). They're great to get. What really matters in Bejeweled Blitz is if you use the hypercubes when your multiplier is high. So you can save it if you want. Just don't explode it or you lose it.
Hypercubes - Should you save a set up gems where you're waiting for the middle one to fall into place and create a hypercube? If it's not in the way, then try it if you want. You might just be best off creating a series of 4 gems for a power gem instead. You don't have much time in this game.
Too Slow? - Play on a computer that's fast enough, has enough memory and a good Internet connection. Close down other programs if you have to.
Too Slow? - Right click on the play area and change your Flash quality to low.
Bad Game? - If you have a bad game, don't get down. Just play another one. Since the background color of the game seems to change, sometimes it's harder to see gem combinations with certain background colors - so it's not you!
Bad Game? - If you have a bad game going, keep playing. You'll get practice and you never know what might happen at the end of the game. The next game is less than a minute away and you can try again.
Bad Game? - If you're stuck, use the Hint button. It's better to take a small hit on points than waste time.The game usually gives you excellent hints.
