Chinese version

I don't own it, but it appears that Chinese version of Bejeweled 3 has several changes:

  • Time Bomb secret mode, with brazing speed bonuses (RubycoredBejeweled's YT video)
  • Number of matches required to activate brazing speed bonus is reduced from 15 to 9.
  • Ice Storm mode has speed bonus and brazing speed. Although unconfirmed until secret.cfg is compared to English version, but the speed of ice columns are increased to compensate this.

Could someone please upload the entire properties directory of Chinese version's main.pak? Possibly I can find more changes by comparing with the English release...


I have a copy of the Chinese release. We fans call it "Bejeweled 3 Plus". The original is here but I was also altering it for a while and also translated it and included some more features; download link and more info here --BoggY (talk) 19:33, 12 May 2018 (EDT)

Videos on Unused Content.

I'm making videos on some of the unused content mentioned here. I already have a video for the debug menu.

Currently working on videos for the unused quests. Then I'll do one for the unused stats screens.

Unused backdrop???

Unused backdrop? This appears to be an unused backdrop. In main.pak, it can be found in images\1200\backgrounds\cloudfloat\cloudfloat, along with unused images and a .pam file. It's similar to floating_rock_city. I don't think this is used anywhere in the game.

Blender File "Coal" Gem

A user by the name of B1 Gaming was able to get into the Blender file of Bejeweled 3 from the Chinese main.pak. He found on the 8th slot (from Blender 2.41), there is an 8th gem called "Coal" which has a similar color, but no other resemblance to the coal from Twist. This gem has 40 frames of animation. This is an entire cut gem in the game, but I'm putting this here so I can get word around this. If anyone else can find something, please tell it here. I've gathered this information from the Bejeweled Fans Discord server.--INFAMOUS TerraKing-Infamous SignatureSymbol.png (Talk) 21:28, 27 July 2022 (UTC) TCRF FindBejeweled3BlenderCoal.png

"Zeitgeist 1"

Just for curiosity, I've just found "Zeitgeist 1" refers to a movie promoting conspiracy theories about religions and governments and released in 2007, although it likely doesn't have anything to do with the unused song. But the word zeitgeist does mean "the spirit of the time; the general trend of thought, feeling, or tastes characteristic of a particular period of time", so the song may represent it. --Davi 6596 (talk) 00:15, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
