Wicked Mode
Gems wicked mode is played by pressing 3 simultaneous keys from the numeric keypad (zero key excluded). When the pattern of pressed-keys matches a pattern of gems on the game, matching games are destroyed scoring points.
If you have a Laptop, you need to press the "Num-Lock" key to activate the numeric keypad within the letter keys.
Not all keyboard controllers work the same when multiple simoultaneous keys are pressed, and it may be possible that Gems is not compatible with your keyboard.
On most modern keyboards, when any three keys which would form a square are pressed, the third key will not register. Therefore, not all possible 3-key patterns are valid.
The following images show a valid pattern at the left versus a non-valid pattern at the right.
