Jewel Master: Cradle of Egypt
- Platform: Nintendo DS
- Publisher: Rising Star Games

- Genre: Puzzle
Cradle of Egypt is an addictive Match-3 puzzle game with an engaging resource mechanic. Building on the key features that made its predecessor such a success, it now includes bonus items and tools associated with ancient Egyptian mythology to use throughout the game.
To clear a level, players must match three or more of the same tiles in order to smash the blue marble slabs that lie beneath them, all within a time limit; once completed, a Scarab will appear on the board and must be freed.
Unlike many puzzle games, Cradle of Egypt forces people to think two or more moves ahead to ensure they complete the challenge - the quicker gamers are, the bigger the time bonus. But the longer they play the more resources they accumulate in order to rebuild an ancient Egyptian civilisation.
