The game has an excellent intro with thrilling animation and in-between levels. While it seems dull and artless, the developer adds a lot of eye candies, twists, and bonuses to let you optimize the game’s potential. The Treasures of Montezuma is a typical puzzle game where a player has to match three or more jewels bearing the same color to earn points. So, if you loved the first and second game variations, you will surely love the new. The gameplay and most features remain the same. If any of your purchases do not work, or maybe for strategic reasons, then there is an option to trade them in for one of the other items.Treasures of Montezuma is back in its third release. During later stages of the game you can purchase enhanced versions of various items. There are also power-ups that give you an additional three seconds of playing (even three seconds can made the significant difference between failure and success), destroy nearby tokens and activate a Hint feature for three seconds. These magic tokens can prove useful whenever you make successive matches of the relevant colour. Among the items on displays, although not all are immediately on sale, will be magic tokens for each of the different colours. As there is no time limit when visiting the shop, there is more opportunity to use strategy when making purchases from the available magic tokens and power-ups that are available. These Stars are the local currency for purchasing items from the game shop. Once you have achieved or exceeded all the set points totals for the current treasure chest, you will be rewarded with a Gold Star. By filling a container at the bottom of the game board with sand, you will activate the Score Frenzy mode which doubles all the points you earn within a short time period. Also by collecting enough gems you will activate a score multiplier feature. By including these gem-enhanced tiles in your matches you will help to increase your points total. However despite the limited amount of time to score your points you do need to be on the lookout for those tiles that contain a gem. Planning a strategy is almost a luxury as you try to make your matches on a game board made up of eight rows and eight columns of tiles or tokens. With your initial allocation of just sixty seconds, speed is of the upmost importance.

Failure means that you must try again until all challenges have been met.

In each case your score will be assigned to the highest challenge still available. Each of these points totals need to be achieved within a basic time limit of one minute. Each chest sets you a number of challenges to reach or exceed specific totals of points. The game starts as you enter the first of a series of treasure rooms which contain a number of locked and chained chests containing treasure.
