I love this game. Played it all the time. The ads are WAY too long, that is why I don’t play much anymore.
okay
ads lick up my phone
Annoying instructions

Frustrating Game
They set it up so you have to spend money. Not worth the time one has to put into it.
Don’t start buying tokens!
This game is so much fun BUT if you start buying tokens, you will not win again unless you buy more. I’m very good at card games and I also can count and if you have bought tokens, all of a sudden you will get 7 or more cards in a row that won’t play and magically- you buy more tokens and finish a hand with 10 cards left. They don’t even try to conceal what they’re doing. Again- so much fun UNTIL they think you will buy more tokens.
Horrible
Uhm delete the ads please and give me more money plus I’m 9 you get 1 star
Glitch ?
I really do like this game but now when i get on the game , there’s a glitch to where the game will load but freeze when im on the home page. I thought there was a problem with my ipad but this is the only game that it messes up on. And I’m scared to delete the game then redownload it because I’m not sure if it’s going to save my progress:(
Opposite of straight
My favorite part is clicking off 18 ads or offers in a row to play a level where you only play 4 cards and you lose…So fun!
Manipulative
This app is so incredibly manipulative. I’ve never seen an advertisement system where they depict the progress as moving quickly and then slowing it down slower and slower and slower. Feels illegal and it’s a definite waste of time. They manipulate your progress too. Make it so that you only have one card left at the end of your game and you have to use a reward.
Questionable gameplay
UPDATE:
OK, now you’ve ruined the game! I used to spend a few bucks here and there to play and I’ve always spent my money knowing I would be throwing it away but entertainment right? Now, ads in between every round!! We went all of this time without ads and now all of a sudden you’re throwing them in and although this is one of my very favorite games, I’m deleting it. I’m not gonna sit and have moments of my life minute by minute, stolen by worthless ads for a stupid game. What a shame. PS…. No making it add free for a fee. I’d still delete it.
This game feels like it’s a set up for failure, until it’s not. Encouraging people or enticing people to pay for items, constant pop-up’s yo pay, for events when they cannot complete a level. I’ve played enough now and I’ve seen the pattern. Some you breeze right through. Others? 6 to 8 times maybe even more because there’s not enough cards to complete it even if you tried your best no matter what, you cannot complete that level. Instead of me being a player who cheats, I feel like you’re a developer who’s cheating us. Please change the gameplay and I’ll change my rating.

All solitary with irs name I need paid when say free liers
Obsessed with getting your money
Never have a deleted an app so fast. You get on a roll and then the app downright refuses you to get any further in the game without paying. Waste of time. Disgusting capitalist pigs who designed this.
Ugh
I’m really trying to enjoy this game. But there are just so many ads in between plays. It’s so annoying
😡😡😡😡
Terrible it charges half your coins to play a game
You can’t make money on this game
You can’t make money on this game
Not workin
All the sudden mines been dragging No merge game, doesn’t download
Not worth the ads
Sooooo many ads and pop ups and one ad will never let you exit out of it and that’s when you have a timed prize. Not worth the aggravation
Was fun until the ad started appearing after every other level or every other other level
So stupid
Cheats
This game only lets you when , when they want they want you to spend money
Poor In-App Purchase Support
I’ve been playing this game since 2017 and have enjoyed the experience. As the game has grown in size with additional content, so has the bug issues increased such as freezing, errors, and crashing. Support provides the same canned answers when these issues arise: to force close the app, delete and reinstall the app, clear the app cache, etc.
I’ve recently encountered a snarky and negative experience with support attempting to resolve a dispute pertaining to a loss of game play resources. The app wasn’t operating and responding as designed. I provided screenshots to support but they refused to accept that the issue was their app. Instead as usual, they blamed the issue was because of (you choose): my Apple brand equipment, limited Internet speed, not enough operating memory, etc. They very rarely state and accept that their operating service is at fault. Yep, the onus is on player/customer.
My loss is financial because I have made many in-app purchases. So I no longer will recommend this game platform for this reason.
There are many other positive game choices to choose. I hope this review helps to prevent you from encountering frustration with this selecting this gaming company.

fun
fun game love it
To much ads
I deleted due to many and long ads
Too many side games
This game could be great but there are too many side games and options. I have a side game that wants me to do that silly merge game which is not what I wanted. I have another side game to roll and play a board game. I have missions to complete. I have cards to collect. I have random pictures it wants me to take. I have a treasure chest to collect. I have a piggy bank I need to fill. This is too much just let people play the game and enjoy it.
Ads
Deleting the game, I have to watch enough ads on tv, not gonna watch them just to play a game on my phone.
Fix the ad glitch
First, there are about a million ads in this game, to get more cards, when you lose a level, when you WIN a level, etc. For 99% of the levels, you can’t win with the cards you have so you have to watch an ad to get additional cards, use your coins to buy cards or pay money. It’s A LOT of ads. But today, for whatever reason, the ads are not working at all so it’s become unplayable. Fix this please! I’ve been playing for ages and love the game and can even deal with the ads but come on already
Glitch with ads
There’s something wrong with the ads and getting rewards from them. Whenever the ads are done, the thing you’re supposed to get never actually happens. I have to close the app and reopen it and I just get coins. I’ve been watching ads to get gifts in the merge game but it didn’t work. Please fix soon!
The pop up adds
The forced pop ups to download load other games from the appstore is ridiculous. I have to constantly kill the app.
You only win when they let you
Computer manipulates cards to control wins. You can use all of the boosters and still not win, unless the algorithm decides it’s your turn to win.
Meh
It’s okay, but they almost make you spend coins to beat the levels. Kind of annoying
Too many ads
Constantly trying to get you to buy stuff 🙄
Issue with recent ads
there’s a new McDonald’s ad, in Spanish, that does not provide an option to close. all you can do is leave the game and lose progress on the current level. very frustrating.
Fun game, but
Too many ads. Also merge portion was great at first, but now doesn’t have enough room to keep getting new items to merge, so challenge is determine what to sell to make room. So many things going on at once.
Not fast on getting new levels
The merge games are made too hard to finish levels and win coins. The blue boxes give the same items over and over
Too many pop-ups
I really like this game, but yet another pop-up made me accidentally spend coins I didn’t want to. This one cost me over 1 million coins for an item I didn’t even want/need because the coin store popped up unexpectedly when I was trying to do something else. Send a request to have my coins refunded and the item taken away, but I’ll have to wait three days to even find out if they will. They really need to cut back on the pop-ups otherwise the game would be much more enjoyable.
Why did you change the amount of ads?
I loved this game and have played it for years. After the last update, every time you finish a round you have to watch an ad. This is frustrating and I will probably delete the game if it is not changed. Too many ads = too annoying.
