★★★★ Nathan Scott 7/1/2026 v2.46.4
game itself is great but the ads ruin it, we expect ads on mobile games but there thrown at you ever minute or so, multiple times each level. makes it almost unplayable. my advice would be to just put an ad at the end or beginning of each level to retain your players
★★★★ Stephanie C 7/1/2026 v2.45.9
the original was an amazing game. I just redownloaded it after some time when I remembered it, and the new version is truly terrible. It lacks all the fun of the original and makes it like every other game out there. It also isn't as satisfying when you can't finish clearing everything? I'm genuinely so sad and disappointed.
★★★★ Hayron Moscoso 7/1/2026 v2.45.9
This game sucks. Halftime ads, weird layout, easy BOTS, and AI slop. I was thinking of rating it 2 stars, but this game SUCKS.
★★★★ Elvis Mutuku 7/1/2026 v2.45.9
Too many Ads😕
★★★★ Katleho Maretele 7/1/2026 v2.45.9

★★★★ saneth samararatne 7/1/2026

★★★★ Gilar Permadi Ardiansyah 7/1/2026
lagi asik main contoh level 5, iklan datang oklah, tapi setelah iklan ditutup ngulang lagi dari level 0,dan ini kejadian tiap kelipatan 5 level, sudah pasti setelah iklan ditutup maka akan mengulang game dari awal lagi
★★★★ Eshmaria M 7/1/2026
too many adds cant play peaceful even for a second dont install guys
★★★★ Teresa Ruiz 7/1/2026 v2.44.10
Too many ads. At times after you watch an ad while you're playing a level, it restarts the level.
★★★★ David Duncan 6/30/2026 v2.45.9
played two mins and hit with a 2 min add. played another min or so and another ad. u can't complete a damn level without a bunch of ads. why not do like most others and hit an ad at the end of levels? auto uninstall.
★★★★ Maria gordon 6/30/2026
WAY entirely too many ads!!
★★★★ Nora S 6/30/2026 v2.45.9
if your gonna put that many ads in the game , just pause the game it's online
★★★★ Tom Ryan 6/30/2026
Played one level then it forced me to play an entirely different game which I couldn't exit
★★★★ Marjan Hussen 6/30/2026
বেসি বালা না
★★★★ Solas Shiron 6/30/2026
Ads mid game is crazy greedy. At least put them at the beginning or end. Would rather give it 0 stars. Garbage dev.
★★★★ Michael Madlangbayan 6/30/2026
ads
★★★★ Kira Carver 6/30/2026 v2.45.9
please don't waste your time with this game. was interrupted on level 2, 3 different times with ads that force you out of the app and into the play store to download something else. these interruptions were thirty seconds apart, each. I timed it, after having that same experience on level 1.
★★★★ Bryan Mcdonald 6/30/2026
14.99 to remove ads is crazy
★★★★ cayyline 6/30/2026

★★★★ T Ja 6/30/2026 v2.45.9
Kayla Mua happy 🫠 what you do on this game ca . com ...
★★★★ IazzyIuk 6/29/2026 v2.45.12
Sold out to adds. ruined the game experience. made it unplayable.
★★★★ Brandon R 6/29/2026 v1.25.1
What's the point of playing a game that you can beat in less than 15 seconds when it has a 10-minute level timer and the super hard level in less than 3 minutes?Also, it's plagued with ads, and there's no point in playing more than a couple of levels because it's all the same and not challenging.
★★★★ Duck Man 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
Way too many ads in the middle of play makes game unplayable. lag is horrible, barely playable.Can't see , can't move, ads make experience with lag horrendous. Worst hole.io game I've ever played, so bad, lag is so bad.ADS are so bad and in the middle of play, do not download.Do not play Stay away.
★★★★ Jeremy T 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
The game is kind of ok, but the ads interrupt game play, running the game.
★★★★ Tiana Ayman 6/29/2026
this is not a game this is an AD IT SELF it's like downloading an ad and then REGRET IT LATER ON like as soon as i downloaded it and i started playing boom an ad i HATE THIS GAME I wish i could give this 0 stars
★★★★ Burhanuddin Saifuddin 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
What nonsense. Ad ever 10-15 seconds in middle of the game. Useless.
★★★★ E. Samet 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
Too many ads...
★★★★ Ken M 6/29/2026 v2.44.10
Greedy Ad Farm, this is the worst ad filled gameless 'game' ever. Less than 30 seconds into a level and already an ad, less than a minute later, a 60 second ad, no skipping. Forced ads between levels as well. No reward options, no benefit for watching like some games do, just a shameless ad factory attached to a meh excuse for a game.
★★★★ Jackie Grantham 6/29/2026
I would tell you about this game but I didn't even get to play it with so many ads
★★★★ grumpygamer1066 6/29/2026 v2.44.10

★★★★ Dutch Vandermeulen 6/29/2026 v2.45.9

★★★★ Tg 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
the game sucks there ads every 15 seconds. and to remove them cost ten bucks??. Don't download this!!!
★★★★ Julie Lomas 6/29/2026 v2.44.10
very frustrating when you can't even get through level Bec the ad is so long it freezes then kicks you out having to start over. every minute a add automatically pops up in the middle of the game then the ads take 2 mins of apps some are so long they freeze
★★★★ Sunil Maharjan 6/29/2026 v2.45.9

★★★★ Nathan Elders 6/29/2026
uninstalled. can't get through a single level without an ad every 30 seconds
★★★★ Toh Wei Jun 6/29/2026

★★★★ Shenna Carter 6/29/2026
you're absolutely joking hitting someone with an ad in the MIDDLE of a pvp game???
★★★★ Chipper Bailey 6/29/2026 v2.45.9
Amazing app, but WAYYYYY too many ads. Like even when youre in a round. And I would like an online version, I feel like the rounds are just you against computers
★★★★ Leann Hamilton 6/28/2026 v2.45.9

★★★★ Joshua DeLoach 6/28/2026 v2.44.10
