Gems Odyssey: One Bar for Every Gem Colour

Gems Odyssey is a gem-matching game in which every colour has a progress bar of its own: fill one completely and your stake is increased by that gem's odds. Look for it under the 1xGames heading on 1xBet in Algeria.

The board itself has 25 cells, five across and five down, taken up by six kinds of gems that differ in shape and colour. A banner up top requests a bet, and six panels run down the left side of the board, one per gem, each showing the odds and the bar for that gem.

What each gem is worth

At 5, the long purple crystal carries ten times the odds of the yellow triangle, which stands at 0.5. As for timing, the increase lands at the end of the game rather than at the moment the bar fills up.

Clearing lines on the board

Find 3 or more gems that match, lying in one horizontal or vertical row; diagonal lines do not count. Click that combination and its gems leave the board, while new gems automatically take over the empty cells. When no combination is left anywhere on the board, the game is over.

Two ways to play

• Manual: you pick the combinations yourself.

• Autoplay: the combinations are selected automatically.

Starting a new game refills the board with new gems.

Casino, sports betting and a DZD account

The casino has a part of the site to itself. Pre-match bets go through the list of upcoming fixtures, and matches can also be backed as they unfold in the live section. Registration sets up a new account, which runs in Algerian dinars (DZD).
