Gemology is a unique gravity puzzle game. It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\n
The first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall
\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\n
Lapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\n
The second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\n
Anneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\n
Touch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the
\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\n
Two additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.

It draw inspiration from titles like Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Bejeweled, however, actual gameplay is significantly different. With two games to play, Lapidiary and Annealiation, Gemology is an original title that challenges player\u2019s wit and judgment.<\/p>\nThe first of these game modes, titled Lapidiary, tasks players to solve a series of pre-established puzzles. The objective is to mine (remove) all of the raw gem-formations in each shaft. Players accomplish this by calling down rocks, breaking them into gems and completing rows. Unlike the aforementioned titles, the player has no control over the movement of these objects. Rocks will fall\nfrom the left and right sides and the player must strategize how to allocate these pieces by altering the environment.<\/p>\nLapidary: \u201cengraved on or suitable for engraving on stone and therefore elegant and concise.\u201d<\/p>\nThe second of these modes, Annealiation, is an arcade experience challenging the player\u2019s sense of priority and judgment. In a frantic game of risk and reward, players must choose to prolong their match or score big. Combine gems for higher values or save smaller gems to extend the timer. Simple controls and easy-to-master methods allow players of all ages to enjoy this exciting experience; dynamic gameplay and responsive decision-based consequences make this an experience to keep coming back to.<\/p>\nAnneal + Annihilation. Anneal: \u201cto subject to a process of heating and slow cooling in order to toughen and reduce brittleness.\u201d<\/p>\nTouch screen controls allow the user dramatically-increased control over both games and involves the player further with direct responsiveness. The Wii U GamePad is also utilized to offer three different playing options: Immerse yourself in the world of Gemology with unique content on both the TV and the\nGamePad, Off-TV Mode keeps the Gemology experience on the GamePad; and an additional Observers Mode allows for easy viewing.<\/p>\nTwo additional options to play, level creator for Lapidiary and an Annealiation multiplayer mode, are currently under development and will be made available as a free update to users once available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSource: BNC Design Studios PR<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gemology is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 2, BNC Design Studios announced today.
