Get ready to spend more hours killing time in front of your computer - PopCap has just released Bejeweled Twist. Currently, the casual puzzle game is available only through the official Bejeweled Twist site, both as a free demo and a 19.95 full version and is designed for Windows XP and Vista machines. PopCap is also offering a deal where people can get Bejeweled, Bejeweled Twist and Bejeweled 2 for $34.95. Bejeweled Twist will be available in stores and on other game portals on November 18, 2008.

The new version has you rotating four gens in the grid to match up three or more gems of the same color to eliminate lines. If you’re curious how this works, sign up for the free-to-play pet sim Moshi Monsters and play the electric factory game. The original Bejeweled had you just swapping two gems’ positions at a time to make rows of three or more of like colored gems.

I’ve played the Moshi Monster version of Bejeweled Twist, which has been available for months, and tried the demo of Bejeweled Twist, and I have to say that the new iteration is much more challenging. Its still addicting though, so I’m sure PopCap will find success with Bejeweled Twist.
