More ads = more fun according to devs

Fake asf
Let me leave a REAL review for this stupid game, and it will be complex. There’s nothing I hate more than an actual great game made by the most filthiest money hungry beings on earth. Why lie? Why BLATANTLY lie about it being an “offline game” “no WiFi game”, like you people are weird and stupid and don’t deserve anything good in life, it’s not even about taking money from the people anymore, you all take peoples time and intelligence, just because I don’t agree don’t mean I don’t give credit where it’s do but there’s far more red than green here because if it was in fact true that this game is playable offline I’d love it, but guess what? That was the first thing I tried after realizing an ad will show after every completion of a level. This is pitiful and pathetic, but I don’t care because nothing is going to get done about it AND I won’t be browsing for new games anymore anyway, this world is starting to become riddled with fiction and fictional ads, there are no good games anymore let alone anything genuine left at all.
WTH?
Too hard, couldn’t get past even lvl one!
Insane ad problem
You get unskippable ads every two levels, and it can access camera and mic without permission. Very slow even with good internet. Levels are very hard with little to no context. I got stuck on more than 50 of them.
too many ads
too many ads
I don’t know how to start the game
I don’t know how to start the game. I literally see a button blue button and I click it and it won’t let me play.
Ad delivery vehicle
Disguised as an interesting game
Bruh
STOP FREAKING GIVING ME NOTIFICATIONS SAYING "PlAy ThE gAmE!" LIKE BRO IT'S A GAME I DIDN'T SIGN UP TO GET A GAME TELL ME THE PLAY OVER AND OVER YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY APP I HAVE IF YOU NOTIFY MY ONE MORE TIME I AM NOT PLAYING AND IF YOU DO IT AGAIN AFTER THAT I AM DELETED "game is hard" BRO WHAT KIND OF TITLE IS THAT YOU ARE SO BRAINDEAD
So many ads
I tried to play this game but every single level there was a 10 second ad so I’m spending twice the amount of time watching ads than playing the game
Most of the game is great
But if you can’t ensure a puzzle is solvable by making sure the question is accurate (level 69 thinking it is level 73, level 71 asking about 68 and not being the right clue) then don’t release the game. It would be like a crossword answer not fitting the length of the boxes provided. Fix your game!
Mansplaining
I hate how many ads you have to watch to get a hint just for it to mansplain. Yes. I see the two dots, I want a hint for how to move blocks, not that the two dots OBVIOUSLY need to come together.
Way too many ads
Downloaded and in first 5 minutes of playing had at least 4 ads. Cool concept but not worth the ads at all deleted very quick.
Was fun until it sucked.
The puzzles are good but they often refer back to prior ones, and they are definitely numbered differently now than when they were written. Puzzle 69 wanted me to put the puzzle number as circles but when that didn’t work I checked the hints and it said it was level 73. I checked again in the level list but it was definitely 69. And a few puzzles later it asked what level 68 wanted, and I went back to play every puzzle from 55 onward and none of them say rest. And it feels like the puzzles are a bit buggy. One level said “how many more boxes?” Or something along those lines and the hint told me to drag the word “more” to fill the boxes, but it didn’t do anything. And there’s no way to collect coins without purchasing them or watching ads, so I’ve probably watched 20 minutes of ads in the one hour I played this game just for coin bonuses to get hints not to mention the ridiculous number of forced ads in between each 10 second puzzle. I’m not one to complain about ads because I know it’s a free game, but the inability to collect coins without them makes me feel like something should be said.
Such a unique game, but…
There are way too many ads for this game to be truly enjoyable. I know that it needs to be monetized to an extent, but it’s unreal how often they pop up. I genuinely think this would be 5 stars if that were changed
Hope you like ads.
Game is good but it’s 10% of your experience while on the app, the rest is just ads after every level. I never play more than 1 20 second level before I get an ad.
MY PUZZLES ARE OUT OF ORDER
This may not seem like a big issue however when the puzzle relies on specific level numbers it does. For me level 69 was the one with the 2 balls and the prompt was “this level is” you then have to tap each ball the represent the corresponding numbers. I put in 6 on the first ball and 9 on the second for 5 minutes until I bought the hint which said “this is level 73”. Then i’m on level 71 which asks “what do i need in level 68” so i go to 68 and it’s “invisible walls can’t stop their love”. I had to look at the answer online just to see that my level 68 is not the one referenced in the question. To me this is very annoying and takes away from the game. Besides this the ads are way too often. Overall the puzzles that don’t correspond to levels are solid.
i can’t stand the ads
i really really want to play this game because it’s very fun but there’s way too many ads. i understand you rely on them to keep the game free and make a profit but it honestly ruins the entire experience for me. i love the game so far like i said but seriously the amount of ads it has makes the entire game less fun. if you could cut down on the ads or just make them popups on the top of the screen i would change my rating. and please dont just read this and then leave a reply apologizing but actually change it im begging you. it would make the game much better. but other than that this is a very fun and tricky game so far. i’m really liking it and it seems like a great way to relax and unwind (if there weren’t so many ads. but please do something about this. thank you.
Broken
Awesome concept for a game but several levels that require number specific answers are misaligned for some reason and are impossible to solve without looking up answers.
2nd level
The game really lives up to its name.I can’t even pass the second level…
Greedy
This game has a lot of potential and is pretty fun, however, the ads are beyond excessive. I understand one ad after maybe a few levels, but getting one after every single level completely ruins the experience. The game itself is challenging and quite enjoyable, it’s just that the constant ads completely ruin the experience for this game.
Great concept, ads disrupt gameplay
This is a great puzzle app in theory, but you are bombarded with full screen ads with hidden X and close buttons so they are difficult to close and pop up after 2-3 levels. It’s not worth keeping the app with this, so I will be deleting.
