Turn off timer permanently

Timers are stressful
★★★★ TRevoir74 4/22/2026 v1.5
Ads!!
Watching an ad after every level is ridiculous!!!!
★★★★ SkillyP 4/20/2026 v1.5
Useless. Crashes when opening now.
Used to be fine but recently got very glitchy. Then started crashing as soon as it finished loading. Saw there was an update and thought maybe that would be the fix. No suck luck. Still crashes every time just after it finishes loading and I get the screen for the next level. Useless now. Switched to other similar apps that work perfectly.
Update: latest app update helped not a bit. Still crashes just after it finishes loading…
Another update: latest app update 1.5 has brought zero relief for my problem. App still crashes as soon as Level screen opens…

Keeps kicking me out
This game I downloaded from Kashkick and it’s been two days and im on level 2 cause it just kicks me out!!
I have three days to reach level 90 but I can’t even get the game to let me play
★★★★ Sa1968 4/18/2026 v1.5
INAPPROPRIATE ADS
This is a kids game but sexually explicit ads pop up.
★★★★ _FATNSASSY 4/13/2026 v1.4
Game needs help
I keep getting booted out of the game constantly!
How can your game tell me I’m collecting the wrong tiles when I have to use tiles to grow bigger?

Slow jerky froze up slowed my phone don’t get

Update
So I just got this game and it’s loading ok then it hits 100% then it kicks me off of the game again and again. I didn’t even get a chance to play it. So I,m sorry but I’m deleting it.
★★★★ Dj Love2026 4/3/2026 v1.3.3
No bombs
Don’t like bombs, don’t like having to put things in order. that takes all the fun out of this game. Otherwise I would give it five stars.
★★★★ Coby 50 3/31/2026 v1.3.2
Troubles
I have played this game for several weeks. Suddenly the game will load & then flip back to my Home Screen or it will work for a few moments then freeze & flip back to my home page. Sorry to say I’m about to delete this game!
★★★★ Thisshheoofnd 3/31/2026 v1.3.2
App won’t load
Stops at 60% and won’t load. Got it to load 1 time. Played the first level and the app crashed. Have restarted my iPad, and restarted the app 5 times, but it won’t hugest past 60% loaded. Too bad. Looked like fun.
★★★★ JEmlay 3/26/2026 v1.3.2
Liars!
Bold faced liars! The video ads are a lie and the images in the App Store are a lie!
★★★★ RBaumann 3/21/2026 v1.3
Remove timer
Having a timer is NOT relaxing. Remove it. Keep the stars rating to show how good you are playing.
★★★★ Manny man69 3/21/2026 v1.3
Ad deception
Game is nothing like the ad trial
, too many ads
★★★★ Miyeep 2/28/2026 v1.0.3
Another false ad
Played through 6 levels never saw any tiles or pixelated falling structures like in ad!
★★★★ Ash R.A. 2/19/2026 v1.0.3
Sucks
This game is trash. It is nothing like the ads. They are all pucks and pictures of things. Worst game ever. Wish I could give it 0 stars
★★★★ Meshell80 2/18/2026 v1.0.3
Not the same as ads
All lies!!!

Not what I expected
While an ad came on about this showing this incredible game I couldn’t wait to play but when I actually played it, it was nothing like the ad played. I’m disappointed. I might just remove the app.
★★★★★ Gcoll100 4/24/2026 v1.5
Fun but……
I think most ppl know what’s coming. I do like the game, but you guessed it, ads after every level, which doesn’t take too long to complete. Of course the ads don’t start until you reach level 20. I know I know. Ads are needed for revenue to keep it free, to keep updating them blah blah blah. I get it, but don’t need so many that the game isn’t enjoyable anymore. Deleted after all the ads showed up.
★★★★★ Bonzie12 4/22/2026 v1.5
Choppy
The hole moves choppy
★★★★★ ShugaF84 4/16/2026 v1.4
Confused
I love the game don’t get me wrong but to make it to level 470 and still can’t wait an ad for 2x the rewards is crazy. At first no problem thought it was my phone. Uninstalled and installed the game still the same. No point in spending money if I can’t get the rewards. And I play this game everyday. Well on to something that 100% genuine in what is to be provided
★★★★★ Handpainted_momma 4/13/2026 v1.4
I used to LOVE this game
Once you get to level 690 - 700 they change the game. You can’t “accidentally “ get anything out of order and the way the “fade them out” makes the colors look different. I’ve been playing non stop since I got it basically. Now I’m looking for a different game that won’t just randomly change the rules and makes it hard to tell what is what. Not a fan anymore. Also, they lied. It’s not like the ads and it has ads at the end of every lever once you reach level 16. Uninstalling.
★★★★★ Duchess0fBreezy 4/12/2026 v1.4
Fun and Addictive with a major flaw
This game is fun, addictive and straightforward. The reason I’m giving it two stars is beautiful it was advertised as ‘no ads’ and lo and behold the ads show up at level 16 and literally come up at the end of every level. That’s false advertising, ads should be used for bonuses and extra coins. Give people an initiative to watch the ads without disrupting game play. Thanks for listening!
★★★★★ HannahS976 4/8/2026 v1.4
Fun but….
Fun game very addictive, but the ads after every level are frustrating after it was promoted as not having any. Not to mention it sucks a HUGE amount of battery in a very short time span.
★★★★★ 12PurplePianos 4/6/2026 v1.3.3
Ok game
The game itself is fine….but my kids play and ever time there is an ad, it’s for Shapermint. I make the kids shut the game off, because they don’t need to see women’s breasts on a game.
★★★★★ Ninja1607 3/24/2026 v1.3
Update stinks!
I’ve been loving this game until this most recent update 3/23 why switch buttons around, causing people to accidentally spend coins? Do you need to make money that badly?
★★★★★ C2 chief 3/19/2026 v1.0.3
Cookie cutter boring
Exactly the Same as all the other hole games. Nothing different, ad that lies to you to and offers nothing new. Insultingly boring and uninspired level design. Lacks potential or any notion of a challenge
★★★★★ Raebae2016 3/18/2026 v1.0.3
Good game but don’t be fooled
It’s an alright game, I’m one that really enjoys black hole games. But don’t be fooled.. as someone who downloaded the game based on the ads, I was pretty disappointed. I hate fake ads, they’re so manipulative, but I had hope and downloaded anyways. The interface of the actual game is good but gameplay is nothing like the ads. Developers should use the actual game in their ads because it’s not a bad game and they’d get less negative views if the ads weren’t manipulated like they are:(

garbage

★★★★★ AbbyG529 3/1/2026 v1.0.3
Just my opinion
The ads, which is where I found the game, was really interesting and I wanted to play how the ads showed it but the ads didn’t show the certain amount of fruit or whatever it was for that level. So when I actually got the game it wasn’t at all like the ad and I was disappointed because it seemed like a good quality game but it just wasn’t for me. Well I might not be the kindest reviewer but the game just let me down.
★★★★★ Momcat099999 2/27/2026 v1.0.3
Fun At First
Game was really fun until the levels started requiring you to capture the items in order, especially when some of the pieces are so small it’s hard to see the image. I play games like this to just chill and the added layers of “rules” took all the fun away.
★★★★★ EirualMac 2/24/2026 v1.0.3
Ehh, it’s just ok
Tried it because I thought it didn’t have a timer. I was wrong. I’m a like to clean it all type of gamer, but stage ends when you get the number of certain tiles it wants- deleted game. Not what I wanted. On good note, no ads. Besides its own shopping…..
