Frozen
It keeps freezing on the “this event has ended” and it won’t close the screen to get back to home. I tried re-downloading, restarting my phone. Every every round it comes up, and I have to close the game & restart it. It’s worse than the ads!
Spent money around level 1400
Once you spend money to get past a level, you don’t get to go back and watch ads. I’m on level 1400+ and really don’t want to start over just to not have to spend money.
Is there a way to get back to watch ads for more time without buying coins?!?! I never would’ve bought one pack of coins to lose watching ads again!

Developers ruined the game with nonstop ads
I have ADs popping up and blocking the entire screen and phone for 30-45 seconds in the middle of a game when there are only seconds remaining. There were no ads for weeks until today when they have instituted unstoppable 30 second ADs everytime you restart, everytime you complete a level and everything you pause the menu. I have played over a day of my life on this game without ADs ruining the experience. This game is unplayable now due to ADs
Wrong
This is not the game that was advertised in the ad
Omg deleted
So I loved this game- played it every day. However, when the ads hit it was a totally different experience. I get that you have to have ads but my gosh they are non stop and they basically take over the game. There is no timed ad that finally goes away. You literally have to get out of the whole app (with the ad frozen on the page) and go back into it. And even worse..the ads sometimes hit WHILE you’re playing which destroys your momentum. I don’t usually leave reviews but this is bad. To the owners: are you aware of what’s going on? If so, bro do something, this is ridiculous. Meanwhile sadly I’m saying goodbye
Recent update freezes
I enjoyed this game but the current update only loads to 35%!! So I cannot play any more
WAS fun
This was fun but the advertising has taken over. They come after every win or loss. Super annoying. Guess I’ll delete
Not as advertised
This isn’t the game advertised with the art pages where you find specific objects to color in. This has some mini games where you can do that but you have to complete many level before you get one of these games. The real game is just picking objects from a list while a big countdown clock ticks away. Very basic and boring like for a small child. Not as advertised at all. Don’t waste time downloading. This is a delete for false advertising.
Frequent LENGTHY ADs
More 30 sec ads followed by 12-15 secs of delay than I have EVER seen before. Constantly watching a countdown clock. These ads are between EVERY short round without exception. Absolutely ridiculous! kills all game enjoyment. don’t waste your time.
The latest update didn’t fix the issue. It still crashes and can’t play.
Update: It’s April 26 and it’s been 6 months, and despite downloading several updates, the bug still hasn’t been fixed. I can open the app and play for a few seconds before it crashes. I’m using an iPhone 16 with iOS 26.3.1(a).
The app has continued to crash since updating to the last version. It was functioning properly prior to the update, but now crashes frequently. I had hoped that a subsequent update would resolve the issue; however, the problem persists.

777 Tries ???
I downloaded this purely to write a review. After seeing so many ads that said ‘I’ve tried 777 times to find all…”. I just had to say really? Are you that unintelligent?
Baby Boomer Brenda
This games teaches me precision and my memory is getting better.
Double billing
Like other reviewers I have also been billed for things I did not buy and did not receive. They did blame it on Apple, and I asked for a credit but Apple refused to reimburse me. So…BUYER BEWARE. I would recommend that you never pay for anything on this site or you might end up overpaying 4-5x what you intended
Ok
Don’t buy the game keep playing FREE, the levels get impossible to beat within the time they give, so you have to watch ads for extra time. Which is fine, BUT once you buy the game you no longer get the option to watch ads for extra time. They expect you to keep pumping money in the game. Here I thought I was helping the developer by buying the game since I was enjoying the game and there were enough ads to make the game hard, but doable. Lesson learned I will never buy a game again, I will just keep playing free.
I hate games with time limit
They suck!
Fun…BUT CONSTANT ADS!!
UPDATE April 2026: The ads make this fun game almost unbearable to continue to play. An ad without an “x” after every single screen is insufferable.
Original review: I wasn’t expecting much from this game, but I’ve been looking for something new to try. This is a fun game and I’m enjoying climbing the ranks. BUT!! Some screens, especially as they get harder, don’t “release” some of the match characters until running the clock out. I’ve found myself sitting and watching the timer, then losing because it wouldn’t progress with next match. It seems like a minor programming glitch, otherwise it doesn’t make any sense. I want to keep playing, but I’m thinking twice. Likely not lasting long.

Pay To Win
This is a game that you will find you have to pay to win eventually. After about 50 levels the difficulty gets harder and much harder. It gets to a point that you can’t win unless you pay. I’m on a team of 50 and all but 8 have left the game. I’ve been playing for 3 months but I’m ready to leave due to the lack of variety of difficulty. Don’t let reviews fool you and if you think I’m wrong go ahead and play. Just remember you will pay to win.
Disappointed
After iOS 26.4 update, game stopped working. Shuts down either after loading or not even completing first scene.
Before the update, some ads would shut down game so couldn’t complete the scene.
Glad I did not spend $$.

Expensive
Fun addictive game, but some levels are way too hard, there’s no way you can go though them without spending money on coins. Sad, I have to delete this game. Not fair game!
Very Glitchy
I make sure it’s the only app open and it still shuts down constantly and takes a life and resets any bonuses earned. Very annoying.
I can’t play my game it keep shutting off

Why
It is not the same as what you advertised
Reasons not to start
I was all set to try this game but I saw that it’s just one more timed game. I don’t want to know how fast I can play; I’m much more interested in whether or not I can find the items.
Download
I change phone and all my progress did not transfer I have to start from level 1 again
Abusive with the ads
I’ve never seen this many ads on a game before there’s an ad after everything so let’s say you get to the next level of course there’s an ad then you get back and you get a bonus. You get an ad before you even start the next round and if you have another bonus, you get another ad and the ads are about 2 to 3 minutes long ridiculous. Don’t bother downloading this app. It’s just trying to force you to pay five dollars for no ads.

Ads became extreme
I had been playing this game for awhile and all of a sudden today ads started popping up. I don’t mind an ad every once in awhile but it is an ad after every single game even the mini games. No one wants to play a game where you have to stop every 2 minutes to watch an ad and they are long ads. Terribly disappointed!
False advertising
They advertise the game as finding certain amount of object from a photo. But when you download it, it’s a completely different game of matching 3 object to pass the game. Not that this is a bad game but sick and tired of those apps false advertising to get people to download. This is so wrong.
Horrible game
Even the ad says they tried 237 times and they couldn’t complete the picture why would anybody get this game?
Misleading
Not the game your downloading!! This is a mini game to a match that with color then when you complete like level 5 this mini level with no color pops up!!!
Advertisements
This game is fun, but there is a major issue. Whenever an advertisement plays, the screen turns black and I can’t return to the game. I have to completely turn off my phone and turn it back on just to play again. This needs to be fixed.
Too ridiculously difficult
No way to get even a 10th of the items without buying more time. 🤦🏻♀️
You’ve taken it way too far! Loved it but not enough to keep paying!! I’ll find another game😤

Bring back the ads for extra seconds
Why tf did the ability to watch ads for 30 extra seconds disappear. I’m not paying to be able to win levels
Fun at First
This game is a lot of fun to play at first, but as you increase in the levels the difficulty becomes such that you can’t win the level without adding time multiple times (which costs a lot of money!). I made it to Level 1578 but will be deleting the game as I refuse to spend any more money to be able to play it. They can make it challenging without making it impossible. Unfortunately, they went the impossible route. :-(
Irritating
If you want a game that freezes, during ads blackouts, and takes away the coins you earn, this is the game for you!
Too many ads!
I loved this game until recently. They started pushing ads after every level and then in the middle of a game! So, if you had 15 minutes of free lives or anything else, a lot of time is wasted trying to get away from the ads. I was spending money to play until this nonsense. I finally just deleted it.
Very stingy game
It’s fine, but it takes days to complete a level because they want you to spend money! Very frustrating you have to constantly move your screen to find things.
Ads made it not enjoyable
Really liked this game when I first started playing it. Made it through many levels and then all of the sudden ads and they would pop up in between levels and last at least a minute. I deleted it because I do t want to waste time waiting on ads.
Crazy hard
Cute game but quickly becomes crazy hard. Regret purchasing no ads option. Should have just deleted it.
It was okay.
Some of the games were impossible to complete without having to purchase coins. It ended up being too expensive so I deleted it.
Triple Match City
Way too many ads
Terrible after level 284!
The disruptive adds interrupt you mid-game after level 284! Who does that??? Bad form! I deleted the game immediately. Sad because I truly enjoyed playing.
Not like the ads
I saw this game advertised with ads showing beautiful art where you find the objects, this game is not quite like this. There are some mini games with the art, but most of the levels are very different.
Addicting
If you are OCD, don’t download this app. The in-app purchases are expensive. It gives you seconds to find last item, which are not there until you add time, which will create a purchase. I deleted the app. As much I spent, I should get royalties.
Costs money
I really like this game, but when you get to the higher levels, there’s no way to progress without spending money, no matter how fast you are! Other games let you watch ads to get help, but not this game. Also, won’t delete your account so you can start over.
Impossible after a certain level
I am on level 1316, and it is truly impossible to complete without spending real money now. It’s too bad because it was fun while it lasted. Will be deleting the game since I am not willing to watch a thousand commercials a game and have to pay real money to pass the levels. Bye bye.
Rigged Game
So this game would have gotten 5 stars if it wasn’t rigged to make you fail. I’m assuming it does this to try to make you buy more stuff. Here’s what I mean about being rigged. The object is to collect the various characters by finding them within the tableau. You collect them in groups of three to remove them. You have a limited amount of time in which to do this. However, you can tap the character and it will select an item near to where you tap, not the item you tapped, thus filling up the finite number of slots you have for selecting the desired characters, thus causing you to waste time trying to free up slots. And the error is not because my finger is somewhat wide and I may have accidentally tapped the wrong item. I use an Apple Pencil so there is very little room for error. I t’s possible this could be sloppy programming, not mapping the tableau accurately, but the end result is the same; it doesn’t give you what you selected. The problem becomes even more pronounced when you expand the tableau. It’s even more obvious that the game is purposefully selecting something other than what you actually tagged. I’ll wait for a response from the developers before deleting this game. Too bad, it’s otherwise a fun game!
Not Fun
Played for 3 days until I discovered on some levels the items needed are just not there. Fun concept, rigging the game is not….deleted!
Sad 😢
I love this game so so much. But I’ve got to stop playing it. You guys sure know how to make certain ones so difficult that people HAVE to spend money or they never get past that particular level. I just spent another $10.00 so I could finally get past the level I’m on, but I went through that $10.00 and STILL didn’t make it out of my current level. So no more Triple Match City for me and it is by far my favorite game. I know that for every person like me who finally gives it up, there will be plenty more to take my place. But just know that I know you are not being fair with this game.
Not Relaxing
Game was advertised as relaxing but levels are on a timer. Also many objects are small and fat-fingering the wrong ones is a problem.
