good 👍
overall, it's a decent game. but it was installed on my phone automatically, without my permission. this is a huge problem and should jot be allowed.
the ads are ridiculous and make the game nearly unplayable
worst game with ads total rip off
waaayyyyy too many ad's I have un installed game only getting to play 1/3 of the time in app
don't bother with this app, it is only sorta fun at first(if you're 5 years of age)then ads every 3rd retry, 1 heart per retry, only 5 hearts available. like they don't want you to play the app, just want to gaslight you into purchases, and drive you crazy with ads. zero stars.
every time I'm at 99% and need help with a clue it won't pass to it 100% until weeks later
The ads are insufferable. Delete
too many ads
for dum dums
The game eventually becomes unplayable without either watching ads or spending in-game currency(so you either have to give them money or give them money).I noticed the coin generation will intentionally clog up every single area,and towards all of them being full it will place a single coin of the lowest value available in all remaining spots just to force you to either restart or buy a fan.Edit:After reviewing other reviews,the dev actively avoids addressing the scammy nature of the game. 0⭐s
Multiple times therouout the game have I hit the deal coin button and the RNG deals me an unwinnable hand with no possible moves. And the gem grind doesn't give you enough gems to keep up with the coin generaton. 10 gems for level up and 1 gem per ad break won't make the 250 needed for a 60 second temp slot the game seemingly requires you to use every three levels due to bad hand outs. Sure there are permanent slots available for 300 but they unlock for free once to clear a level requirement
Higher levels are impossible to do without spending money~
Pay to play. Not worth the money.
not very fun
this game is setup to constantly require you spend money to play
it was not the game
Actually a very fun game that's good for my deep desire to sort things by color. Unfortunately, they think it's reasonable to interrupt levels midway through with forced ads. I can tolerate forced ads at the end of each level despite my disdain for all things advertising, but stopping my gameplay for a mid-level "ad break" is unacceptable.
commercials
for starters any game with an energy system is trash regardless of how good it is. limiting play is completely bs. 1 star for that alone. now it is a fun game to pass the time on, but it's also pay to win when you get further in. if you have enough crystals to buy power ups, you can't watch an ad instead, you have to spend the crystals. meaning you can't save them because this game forces you to use said power ups. so if you want to buy anything more the 250 you have to pay. ads aren't that bad.
the level 119, is cheating not even possible to win
so i was enjoying the game and decided to pay to get rid of the ads... as soon as they got my money the gameplay changed... it started dropping coins with no possible moves to be made... it would do it over and over again. i stopped being able to progress. i have been stuck on level 75 for days and i am done... once I payed to remove ads the gameplay changed to try and get me to buy other things. exceptionally dishonest!!!
very poor game. at the beginning its ok. but then u realize it purposefully keeps messing you up so you have to spend lots of money to carry on. so obviously its fixed.
this game actively punishes you for not watching ads, making it impossible to win unless you watch multiple, minute-long ads for buffs. and this is even after I paid to remove the ads between games. scummy move.
was very fun, but now unplayable. can't move forward without paying.
after a certain point, you can't even play as you don't have enough slots to hold each of the coins sets.
kills time, but early in game its not a puzzle anymore coins just drop that block you from continuing and you lose lives. lvl 129 unbeatable unless you pay for power ups.
I really like this game. And I made it to level 1375 in just about four months, so I do play a lot. Lately, it seems like I'm watching more ads than actually playing; kind of killing it for me.
Great game but your ads are X Rated. Pls block them. It inappropriate to advertise twerking and chat girls on a normal game my kids also like to play.
too many ads
This game could be great fun if it weren't for the ads, they are non stop and unbearable. good game, too greedy with ads.
I don't usually waste time writing reviews, but I'm fed up with ads. Before the game, at the end, in the middle (ad break). Uninstall and blocking this game creator
This is a fun game, but my level reset back to level 1 from level 86.
boring
Too many ads, and you are forced to use gems for any meaningful progress around level 120 or so. Uninstalling
The game has been stuck on the bundle offer screen and even if I click on close or buy option it is not working....... really frustrating.. 😞 please do something about it. fix it as soon as possible...... 😠😠 why is it still not fixed yet...? how much time do we have to wait....? 😠
was fun until they intentionally give you no moves to make, constantly. they want you to spend money to pass levels
