★★★★★ "Not much fun unless you pay. I downloaded this because of ads for it on another game. Still haven’t played a level similar to the ads. Levels are much harder and also have very short timers to finish. I don’t mind a challenge, but timer is so short it’s almost no fun. …" - UserNameRequired

Adssssss
Too many ads
Terrible
once you get to a certain level you literally can’t win anymore without spending money
Levels are all the same!
The levels after 1920ish ( I don’t even remember at this point because I’ve played the same level so many times) to 1930 are the exact same. Support has not been helpful. I have wasted so much money on this game just trying to get past this level layout hoping that at some point, a new level will appear, but it doesn’t. If you start to see the same level in a row, don’t waste your time!!
Not recommended
I’m going to be honest with all of you…The ads are much funner! In the ads you get unlimited time. But what about the game? You get timed. Also way too many ads 😡
so annoying
once you get to a certain point the levels are near impossible without spending money. i’m rage quitting. deleting this app. this is the worst game ever.
App keeps crashing
Though the game is really fun, the app keeps crashing. Super annoying and frustrating. What makes it even more ridiculous is that when I was accessing support chat box to report the frequent app crash, the app crashed again 👎
App keeps closing out
Every time I’m in the middle of playing a game it closes me out
Game closes out randomly after update
Game closes out randomly after latest update made me loose three levels crashing in the middle not saving progress
Need better update for saving progress
If you get a phone call or anything and switch screens, the app will lose progress force close the current level you were on and everything I worked for is gone, I was on win streak and my rainbow fest is now reset! My boosters is also reset .. it treated it as a lot! That makes me not want to play the game I’m on level 740.. I need my boosters that I won to get and now it’s reset? Terrible, currently searching for a new mind challenging game to play
Game glitches
This game freezes too much, blanks out while in the middle of playing. Too many glitches… please help!
Way to hard
This game has gotten way to hard. It is not fun anymore. Each level is impossible to clear without a cheat.
To many adds
The game is fun but there are way to many adds they ruin the game
Lies and Deceit
Advertised as having no ads. It waits until you are at a certain level in the game (level 28) and then begins spamming every time you complete a level. Scummy.
Absolute money suck
This game is designed to glitch in a way that forces you to spend money. Just got stuck in a level with a perpetual curtain fail that wouldn’t get fixed even when taking the fail offer. They also don’t have ad options in place of paying for power apps. If you’re someone who gets hooked on games and is not disciplined about in-app purchases, STAY FAR AWAY
Too many ads
Opens up apps and links when you try and close them
Turn off the timer!!!
I just want to play a puzzle without the anxiety! Is that so hard???
Paying for add ons
Level 1190 is literally impossible without buying extra time I hate this game
MONEY GRAB TRAP
This game would be amazing, but typical greedy developers. The first few rounds are so much fun, but then the game literally makes it impossible to beat a level unless you buy stuff. But, not just small things, requires you to BLOW LOTS OF MONEY just for one round.
Greedy SOBs like so many games. NOT WORTH THE DOWNLOAD, trust me.

Crashes & No help
Fun game, but any time I’d receive a phone call, or text, the game will restart and you lose all power ups and progress on the level. They also called bs on me when it came to that and refused to help out. Terrible customer service and you might as well put yourself on airplane mode or dnd if you want to play without it crashing.
Timer sucks
The ad I clicked on to get this game said “no timer, no stress.” I’d like this game if I could work at my pace without the timer
timer gimmick designed to make you to play
was fun for 30 minutes until you realize the focus isnt on solving the puzzle, its about beating the ridiculously short timers. you could have it solved but god forbid you dont move fast enough or dont want to pay real money to continue.
Ads, not a game
This was one of the most fun puzzle games anywhere. But it has become 95% ads. Before games, after games, in the middle of games, numerous times a game. Ads that crash the game. Last game I played I made two moves and had a forced ad. Made three moves after the ad, and had another ad. I loved this game but feel it’s not worth the frustration of not being able to even play it.
Needs an “untimed” fun mode
Levels get progressively more challenging. That is great but sometimes I just want to relax - I don’t need ever harder levels - life is hard enough. Just create an option for untimed play and you’d have a winner with this game!
Not really an organized game.
Need more options for clues or hints. A review video to even get you started. Also I was introduce to new challenges but it never taught me how to use them. I love a challenge but I also love to know it is beatable at the same time. I deleted it for this reason alone.
Ads too long
I have not played this game, but the fact that the ads are three minutes long, has turned me off completely
Ad chaos
The amount of ads are frankly insane, “oh 3rd daily is watch a ad? Guess what” YOU STILL WATCH ADS. Normal game ad? Watch the ad for the daily? Too bad more ads. Y’all Ivedone 5 round with 4 ads between. It’s insane
No time
You get no time to do anything on lvl 31 it’s to frustrating and the worst game ever I want to make this exact game and have no time limit it will be way better
No more timers
Tired of timers and just delete all games with them. Please create a version without them or bombs, would pay high end price for quality games with no evil looking images or timers. Also appreciate watching ads to get help clearing a level and even skipping past it if it gets too annoying.
Too hard without purchases
I’m at level 18, and it’s too hard to complete in given timeframe, even using the free power-ups, time freeze etc I was given previously.
The game wants me to spend real cash to get pretend coins to buy power-ups to win this level. And probably all the higher levels. I’ve tried this level 10+ times, I’m not even close, it’s SO frustrating!
Also no daily coins or watch an ad for free coins, weird. Other games at least do that, so I can avoid spending real money. This game just wants my money. No thank you!

Ad farm
Fun game with challenging levels but some levels are really hard and impossible to beat without playing them many times and memorizing the level or paying money to use power ups. After you lose so many times you have to watch ads to even play. The ads glitch and won’t play some time therefore I can’t play the game unless I pay money.
Good for 1 day
After the first day of playing it I got bombed by ultra aggressive marketing and ads. Couldn’t get out of ad until I got shifted to some other games web page to buy and tiny “x” in the high corner that shipped you back to random game site
Scam!!!!!!
I used to like playing this game, but now in the higher levels, they make it to where you cannot pass levels unless you spend money or use a lot of power ups there’s a lot of levels where you don’t have enough to get through the level without using or buying power ups!!!
Does not work
I can’t open the app
Love this app but . . .
I love this game so much and I don’t mind buying coins to play BUT the price of the coins is ludicrous. If I don’t buy coins I can only play so many levels before I’m stuck with having coins to buy the tools I need. Such a shame.
MOST TERRIBLE
I’m not one to rage quit on a game, but this game is genuinely ad rot. It already doesn’t give you enough coins to do anything, and then make the levels harder to where you’re highly prompted to use them. Don’t get me started on the ridiculous time limit for bigger puzzles just to get a measly 40 coins. Then gonna charge money for a certain amount of days for better rewards. $21 is subscription pricing and even that’s a lot and you give it for a few days, are you serious? Literally a money grab, and YOU KNOW IT, then gonna have the nerve to up the pricing on items each use. I tried not to resort to watching videos on how to solve a puzzle but this trash of a game has me watching videos, until I realized yall don’t even reward enough to even boost me to play this terrible ad game. Do better
Slow response
I just downloaded this app and right away it slowed down and isn’t responding to anything I do. I am trying to move the pieces but nothing is working. The timer continued and has run out claiming I couldn’t finish the puzzle in time.
Game Pieces Get Stuck
I really like this game, but the pieces get stuck while the timer keeps running. It’s extremely frustrating when this is the only app running and I can’t move the pieces to complete the game and the clock runs out. Why does this app make it so frustrating to move the game pieces?
Your ads are way too long
Your ads are way too long, it’s deserving of a 1 star review
Real reviews
Played it until I got to level 156 and then it restarted my progress but when I completed level 1 it made me do it 4 times
This game is designed so you have to spend actual money
This is just a cash grab.
Terrible, bloated with ad ware
Can’t progress due to being totally bloated down with adware that then freezes and doesn’t let you progress. Don’t waste your time.
Pay2Play
You play for 10 mins or so then the puzzles require the paid items to solve.
Ad Riddled Mess
Game is unplayable because every pause 1.5-2 min ads are pushed on you.
Don’t download if colorblind
I really wish there was a color blind option :/
Challenging game that becomes almost impossible.
It gets so frustrating to try to get the board cleared. As many other people have noted, the game is designed to make you pay for power ups to increase time and remove pieces on the board because while it may be solvable if you sit and play it for 100 times in a row to memorize every move to figure out what moves need to be made and get them made within the short timeline or watch a YouTube video to solve it (the fact that people post videos of how to solve it should tell you something), your game is not worth it. If the only way I can solve something is to watch somebody else solve it and mimic, what’s the point?
Increase the time, decrease by one piece on every board, and maybe you will get more engagement in your game.

Piece of trash app
Doesn’t update at all and doesn’t allow me to download
Waste of extras
I was hoping this would be a chill, relaxing puzzle game but there is a timer. Once you get over the level 100, it gets more complicated with less time. The extras you purchase don’t help. Don’t waste your time!
Game freezes
When I got to 150 level, it freeze up and will not let you do nothing
Rip off
It’s a good idea but very poorly executed! It’s setup to just get you to spend money on in game purchases. It’s sad, because this game has a lot of potential. Don’t waste your time or money!
No cost listed
Download this game but couldn’t find the cost? From the review it says you have to pay to get more lives?? Would like to know, I need a game that is hard to do! I down new games but none have challenge me
