ChilliConCarnage, the mastery skills basically just increase the damage dealt by the respective gem. I want to know what the gem/monster hue means.

Ripped off. For the last stage, the only purple gem I got was the level 5 that I started with. How am I supposed to defeat armour of the gods with that?

love the game, and have played several of its successors, but man, its hard to get a glowing frame, currently around lvl 15 mage. have come to within 10,000 pts of a glowing.

It's really satisfying to continously upgrade my gems, and it's an interesting decision on whether I should spend large amounts of mana to get a high-tier gem, or gamble, and see if I get enough of one type of low-tier gem to eventually combine into a high-tier one. I also love how many different gems there are, how each color has it's own special effect, and how these effects can be combined to create a multi-purpose (although slightly weaker in both effects) gem.

Most of this games difficulty comes from RNG, I should've been able to beat a lot of levels much faster if you could simply pick what colour gems you create.

Awesome game with a surprising amount of depth. Recently heard about the series from the Creeper World community and I'll see how far I get playing through each one in order. Enjoying it so far!

Be aggressive at the start araashi. Jack up your max mana to at least 8k so you are getting lots back for your kills. Maybe save 5k mana so you get 2 passes at the boss. Don't forget you can sling all your big gems at him as gem bombs.

@AstroCrafter The second game in the series is Gemcraft 0, but story-wise, it would be Gemcraft: Chasing Shadows.
TL;DR version: Gemcraft 0

Ouch!!! Saver beware. I've been playing for a week. Got nearly to the end only to sign on today to learn that my save game has disappeared. Keep this in mind, my friendly grinders.

I've been coming back here to play this game for 2 weeks straight so I could finally beat it. I have to say, it really drew me in... there's something really satisfying about continually upgrading my gems and I like how combining them can make potentially useful dual-colored gems. Once I completely beat this, I'll be sure to check out Chapter 0 next.
