Microsoft Jewel is now available as a standalone app on iOS and Android, bringing Xbox Achievements to the match-3 game and syncing progress with its PC version. Microsoft describes it as the fifth app in Microsoft Casual Games’ mobile lineup and the group’s first new mobile release in seven years in its Xbox Wire announcement.
Players clear jewels by matching three or more, then use Bonus Jewels and power-ups to set up longer matches and chain reactions. Gems from a player’s collection can be placed anywhere on the board, and Daily Challenges offer a fresh goal each day.
Signing in with a Microsoft account also lets players earn Xbox Achievements on mobile and track them on their Xbox profile.
Progress syncs across the standalone iOS, Android, and PC apps, so players can switch devices without starting over. A Microsoft account is required to sync progress and track achievements.
Game Pass members receive Premium benefits on PC, including an ad-free experience and extra in-game bonuses. Ultimate members get those benefits on both PC and mobile.
Microsoft Jewel is available through the App Store and Google Play, with a PC version also available.
