After her adventures in Egypt, Eva Witheby receives a call from her uncle
Donald asking for help in India. She travels to Southeast Asia arriving at the
famous Bijapour, the “Monkey City”, on her 21st birthday, and starts to search
for pieces of the missing jewel boards, the key to great treasures.

Jewel Quest Mysteries 2: Trail of the Midnight Heart , like its
predecessor, is a hidden object game with tile-matching mini-games between
each chapter. A new adventure element was added to the design, with the
inclusion of an inventory in the interface. Most of the time, the objective is
to find and click on all the items from a list at the left side of the screen
within a time limit, on locations filled with assorted things scattered around
the scenery. Some of the objects are stored inside the inventory to be used
later, by dragging and dropping them over logical places on the screen to
solve puzzles. The interface at the left side has three tabs for the jewel
board pieces, the list and the inventory.

Besides the required items, each screen is decorated with lots of jewels that
can be collected, to be used later as currency for upgrades. Each location
also has three gold coins with lion heads, that when collected give an extra
hint. Certain helpful items and upgrades can be purchased between chapters,
like a dragonfly that helps to find the gold coins, an upgrade that makes the
cursor glimmer when near one of the jewels, extra slots for hints, a freeze
power-up that stops the chronometer for some minutes and golden background
portions for the tile-matching game.

In some instances, the main character travels to another location initiating a
quick separate game, where the location scenery is replaced by the view of a
window on the moving vehicle or other mean of transportation. The goal is to
click on a number of objects of the same type while the window scenery is
scrolling, with the option of repeating the level at the end if the player was
not able to find them all. At the end of each chapter the tile-matching game
comes up, where the objective is to swap two adjacent tiles to make matches of
three of the same kind and break the background, turning it into gold.
