I started playing the Facebook social game, Bejeweled Blitz, several weeks ago.

It’s a fun game, with the object to line up colored balls in a row to score points. You are provided 60 seconds to line them up. The more balls you line up that are white, blue, yellow, brown, red, or green; the more points you can receive. Only balls that are the same color are eligible for points. If you score so many points in so many seconds, special balls appear that multiply your points.

I called it a Facebook social game. That means it is accessible as a Facebook application, and you can play against your friends to see who can get the most amount of points.

Suffice to say, it’s an addicting game.

PopCap Games, the Dublin, Ireland-based developer, debuted Bejeweled Blitz in December 2008.

After six months, PopCap announced over 5 million Facebook users played the game–with nearly 75% women. I’m unsure why such a large gender gap.

But the game is silly; the developer built it with the ability to cheat.

Earlier tonight, I decided to test it. You can see the result below with 750,000
