Money waster

Невозможно играть
Отстой, удалось пройти только первые три уровня, дальше - будь добр, заплати, никаких альтернатив нет. Выглядело миленько в рекламе, но вынужденно удаляю спустя 10 минут после скачивания.
Forces you to watch ads to complete levels
This game is horrible. It makes you watch ads to pass levels and I think that is an absurd.
Scam
EVERY level I play blocks me in with 10 or less sheep with no possible movies forcing me to watch an ad to shuffle the mix. I then get a message that I failed the level once I pass it. The game is simple and I know how to play, the mods have forced the loss so we are forced to watch ads to earn them $$
Designed to fail
I really wish I could rate this better, it’s well designed but even at lower levels the puzzles are un-winnable without using the extra tools. I’d be happy to pay for ad-free but not when the game is so strategically designed to force your hand.
Too many ADS!
I really don’t understand how this “game” has a 5-star rating considering it’s really just a glorified Ad bank with a short time playing a game on the side. It’s obvious the developers just want you to sit and watch ads to make them money as you will find out that when you play this “game” you will spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game as EVERY level requires one or more boosters to complete so unless you pay for those boosters, you’re watching ads and that’s pretty ridiculous and just proves the game is definitely NOT SKILL BASED! They have killed any enjoyment you might derive from playing it. Ive also noticed that developers ONLY respond to people who put a 5 star review, otherwise they don’t care. Apple Store should remove these scam apps , they are truly garbage as in this day and age we are bombarded and inundated with ads just about everywhere and everything we do and it’s all too much. Uninstall is my verdict.
I wanted to like it...
But the fact that I have to constantly watch ads in order to finish a level is beyond ridiculous. You take away the enjoyment when you force ads to finish the level. Yeah I'm out.
Ok, sooo
Game itself is pretty fun, however most levels are not solvable without watching adds to shuffle, remove or reverse. I’ve had games that I have had to watch at least 3 adds to move forward. I won’t be keeping unfortunately. If they were actually solvable and if I mess up I would watch a few adds, reality is you will watch at least 1 add and many more on most levels.
Ads
I watched the ad video to get more coins but didn’t gave me any, rip off
ADS
I really enjoy the game. It’s cute. It’s fun however the ads in between our way too long and very frustrating so I’m leaving this game.
Warning, forced redirect
This Apple redirect you to other apps and websites. I don’t trust anything that does this. I don’t want anything added to my devices. And viruses can come with this action.
Too Many Ads
I enjoy this free to play game BUT I'm deleting it due to not being able to mute all the ADS. I'm not enjoying the interruptions to my audio plays as I play this game.
Impossible without watching ads.
Actually insane. Once you get past the first few levels, it’s impossible to beat the levels without watching an ad (a LONG one at that) to get an ability. Would be a super fun game otherwise but I refuse to watch an ad every single level.
Unwinnable
Becomes unwinnable (no available moves) on level 8. To pass the level, you have to buy a power-up. It seemed like a fun game, but I’m not messing with something that requires a purchase in less than 10 levels.
Too hard on older eyes!!!!
Cute game, but the colors are too tough to discern for older eyes, especially on the lightly checkered background.
After playing only four levels, my eyes ache from eye strain.
There is no way to zoom in to see which way the sheep are pointed. It’s impossible to figure out which way the special sheep are facing because there is something on their backs that obscures their heads and tails, so I kept getting dinged.
In addition, it’s waaaaaaay too easy to touch the wrong sheep next to the one you meant to touch, which means you get penalized. They are crowded closely together.
I love games like this, but it’s physically painful to my eyes to play it.
Sadly, I’m deleting it.

Could be good but the game cheats you
This could be a really good game if the strategy was that every game was solvable, but sadly this is not the case. And when you use a booster, like shuffle, almost invariably the game sets it up so that you have to watch another ad, or pay more to buy another shuffle or remove yet another piece.
Instead of feeling challenged, it makes you feel more cheated than anything.Please make the problems solvable, even if they are very complex, without boosters. Then people who cannot solve them, can use your boosters, and those of us who want to be challenged can enjoy the game without feeling like we’re being lied to.

Don’t!
If you love watching ad’s more than you like playing the game, this game is for you.
Level 200 Glitch
The ads are bad enough. The ads alone made me want to delete the game. That being said, you cannot get past level 200. I have cleared it five times and the little wolf still parades back-and-forth. There is a bug l that makes the game think the level isn’t cleared. But if you click shuffle it tells you there are no more sheep left. There are no sheep, there are no chickens… the screen is clear except for the wolf. Between the bug and the obnoxious multi-minute long ads, I deleted it.
Sad
The game froze at level 89. I was really enjoying the game
Ads
Most of the add running in the game are 3 minutes and longer, and sometimes once you’ve watched them it gives you an error that you haven’t completed the ad so you have to repeat the process again.
30 seconds plays, 3-5 minutes uninterrupted ads WTF
30 seconds plays, 3-5 minutes uninterrupted ads WTF
Unplayable
This game is unplayable if you don’t use ads to unlock boosters.
Too many LONG ads!
You can hardly finish a level without an ad. Will delete.
Waste of time
After a few levels you need to use the boosters, and the ONLY WAY TO DO that is to watch a 2 minute add, EVERYTIME
Too many broken ads.
I couldn’t even get past level 4 without trying to use an ad to shuffle. However, after two ads no rewards are granted. Maybe they need to instruct you more on how to use all the features? Also, the game is unbeatable without using features. So basically you’re set up to use them since the direction of the sheep is set up to at some point have no open outward facing sheep. I found it scamming because it is a time draining vampire of a game. Deleting.
Must use boosters to complete levels
I like the game at first but on the fourth level there is no way around using a booster to finish the level. I don’t mind using a booster if I messed up to help me, but having to watch an ad to use a booster in order to even be able to complete the level is a no go for me. Each level should get harder and trickier but you should not be forced to use a booster just to finish level.
Not worth a download!
This app could do much better! It’s not so much the ads, that it is it doesn’t give you free “extras” like similar games give when you beat multiple levels, allowing you to accumulate “special moves” to get out of problem! You have to watch an add every time you need a little help, which is bad enough that this game is seems to be strictly a place you come to watch very long 2 minute to 2 1/2 minute adds!!! …BUT, the worse part after you endure a VERY VERY LONG add, 1/2 the time it won’t go back to the game and allow you to use the “special moves” you should’ve earned after watching the “LotR” trilogy length add!!! I’m deleting this app and going back to the other one!
Ps…I’m almost to level 300, I just didn’t play this game for an hour or 2…I’ve had it over a month! COMPLETE SCAM!!!

Don’t bother
You cannot pass the second level without watching an add. If it’s add blocking this early on, I can’t imagine what kind of paywall waits for me at the higher levels.
Fun game but!
I enjoyed playing this game and at first it was enjoyable but as I progressed through the game these ads keep popping up. I fully understand the purpose of the ads and I agree that since I'm playing the game for free the developers have a right to make some money via ads. I just have a problem with them appearing to often and they're to long. They take away the joy of playing a fun game. Sometimes I've had to close the app and reopen it because an ad froze up and did not go back to game play. I'm removing the app. Sorry.
Could be really fun
So I found a game called Farm Out, and it was really fun, except that after two levels, I started having to watch between 2-4 ads just to clear EACH level. And that wasn’t even the worst part: the ads were all two minutes long, these horrific Royal Match/Kingdom or Villains Match ads that absolutely won’t close.
Then I found Sheep Away, which is almost exactly the same really fun game, but this one wasn’t making me watch so many ads, but now the levels have gotten harder, and it’s necessary to watch ads to clear levels, and at first it wasn’t so bad because the ads were less than a minute (and btw, NO AD SHOULD BE LONGER THAN 30 SECONDS). But now I keep getting those two minute long ads again, which I will not sit through because it isn’t just 2 minutes: it’s waiting for the miserable ad to end, then trying over and over again to get it to close.
UPDATE: I took away another star because after the bug fix update, I’m still getting Royal Match/Kingdom/Match Villains ads which start off two minutes long and then take at least one to two MORE minutes to close after struggling with them. I LOATHE ROYAL MATCH, KING ROBERT, whatever the hell they’re called and will NEVER play these games ever. Do not torture me with these ads! I feel so used and angry.
When I love a game, I will play it for years. I played Abyssrium for seven years. I played Merge Mansions for five until they kept screwing players over. I’ve been playing Cats & Soup for four years now and don’t plan to stop. I will watch ads voluntarily if they aren’t too long in order to get specific rewards. I would play this game for years, but I’m already pretty miserable, in spite of the concept being fantastic. It’s really a shame.
There are plenty of ways to make money on these games without making players miserable! This game could be my absolute favorite way to relax if the devs would fix the ads issue.
I STILL hope I can come back and update this give it five stars and to say that the devs listened.

Too many adds!
This would be a fun game if you didn’t have to watch an add every two or three moves!
Boring now
Can you guys make more puzzels instead of using the same ones over again
Early Levels Unsolvable without Boosters
I don’t mind tricky games, but every level should be solvable without boosters. Really cute graphics. Not sure why I hear a pig squealing as the main noise when there are no pigs on the screen. If you don’t mind HAVING to watch ads to advance, then the game is fine. I happen to mind and uninstalled after level 14.
Too many impossible levels
The game is fun, and cute; but starting early on, there are way too many levels that require an ad-driven power up to complete them. Once on a while is fine; but it’s almost every level after the first few.
