The aim of tiling windows is (obviously) to arrange your work windows and easily picking the next one to continue work. This is because Windows (before Windows 10) has only one monitor screen (workspace) per physical monitor. So in Windows “tiling.

Development[edit]
Bejeweled was initially created by PopCap Games as a web-based Flash game named Diamond Mine. PopCap created partnerships with established Internet gaming sites, such as Microsoft Zone, to host Bejeweled as well. The name Bejeweled was suggested by Microsoft, who thought the original name Diamond Mine was too similar to that of an existing game, Diamond Mines.
The game has been ported to other platforms, including Microsoft Windows, where it was called Bejeweled Deluxe. Astraware produced versions for PDAs on the BlackBerry, iPhone, Palm and Windows Mobilesmartphone platforms. They also released Bejeweled Deluxe on the Xbox as a downloadable Xbox Live Arcade game. It was released as one of the first games downloadable from the iTunes Store for the iPod in September 2006.
PopCap Games initially announced a version of Bejeweled for the iPhone that was not a standalone game, but rather a web application playable over the Safari browser.[5] A native application for the iPhone has since been made available for purchase in the iTunes store, although the web-based version still exists.
Influence[edit]
Bejeweled was influenced by the game Shariki,[6] written in 1988 by Russian developer Eugene Alemzhin, which had nearly identical gameplay.The popularity of Bejeweled has spawned several clones. Collectively known as match three games, these games revolve around the mechanics of creating three-in-a-row combinations of identical pieces.
Legacy[edit]
Bejeweled is often considered an important part of the match-3 genre. The series had won multiple awards. By 2013, PopCap estimates that over 10 billion hours of the game had been played on over 500 million downloaded copies.[7] In 2020, Bejeweled was inducted into the World Video Game Hall of Fame.[8]
