Nope
Just pass on this one. 1. Very difficult to solve beginning in level 2.
2. Tons of ads…when you win, when you lose, when you try to extend the game.
3. And the ads are so broken that they hang the game and you have to restart.
Much better options out there for this type of puzzle game.

Fake
Is too detailed and long with the wool on each level. Can’t get past level 5 even because they keep having you either watch ads or pay to win. So it’s deleted 🙏
SCAM SCAM SCAM
I guess my previous review was removed. Typical. THIS GAME IS A SCAM. I have been stuck on level 110 for MONTHS. There is no way around it without paying these thieves money. Don’t give them the satisfaction. I refuse.
Fun but…
Personally, I enjoy the game itself. Level 2 was unnecessarily hard though, the calibration between where I touch and what color spools seems to be off, and it’s INCREDIBLY sensitive to any touch on the screen, making it seem kind of buggy
Impossible to win
Impossible to pass levels very early on without watching 10+ ads. Love this game but levels should be passable
Impossible levels
Besides the extremely long and boring ads, it is impossible to pass level 20. I don’t mind a challenge, but trying over a dozen times is no longer fun. I deleted the app.
Too Many Adds
Have to watch too many adds just to pass a level and many of the adds freeze. You need to reset the add and try the same level from the beginning over and over. So not worth it.
Unbeatable Levels
TERRIBLE APP! You pay for no ads and I ended up having to watch ads to complete the level. It’s impossible to get through levels unless you get ad on’s which either costs you money or app time. Joke. Deleting app now.
Ads ads
It's said no ads but the levels impossible without watching ads inorder to get the extra slot. I can tolerate 15-30 seconds ads but this app has a 5 mins - 10 mins ads! Deleted the game after lvl 3.
Fun but impossible
It’s a fun game BUT it’s impossible to play or beat levels without watching a bunch of adds or paying. Even then they make it impossible to beat. I’ve spend so much money and watch tons of adds just for it to still not give me any colors that are possible.
bad
it’s fr impossible to beat any levels without watching ads - takes away all the fun. time to delete!
Impossible is not the same as challenging
If you thought this was a simple game to play with minimal effort, you thought wrong. This game is down right impossible, making each level basically unsolvable without watching an ad for tools. It just forces you to watch ads just to pass a level because the randomization of the spindles and wool colors are just uneven. A puzzle could be 80% purple but the possibility of you getting a purple spindle is basically nonexistent which makes it hard for you to keep moving on consistently without wasting space on the little extra waiting slots. If the chances of getting a purple spindle matched the quantity of the purple wool present, then there would be no problems.
Also the amount of coins you get per level and cost of tools are just criminal and honestly a representation of today’s economy because you’re not earning enough to afford helpful tools in an a game with chances that are praying on your down fall, which again just forces you to watch ads. A single waiting slot is 80 coins! Like with how much I earn per level, it should be like 5 coins at most. Also how is a clean brush more expensive than a waiting slot, like make it make sense.
All of this to say that this game is greedy and is praying on your downfall. If you have anger issues and get triggered easily, don’t play this game or else you will have the crash out of the century, bye.

Ads Invasion
When more time is spent watching ads, than being able to play the game, it’s time to quit. Goodbye.
Have to pay to win
You get to a level where it won’t let you pass without continuing to pay for boosters.
Ads and Coins
It has rlly good potential to be good but has way too many ads and to beat a level you have to use so many coins. it is more ragebait than calming
Ads
Even after you pay the 9.99. There’s STILL Ads
Ads make the game unbearable
I get it the ads make the game money. But to have to watch 15 ads just beat a level is insane
Good game, horrendous ads
Nice, low mental stimulation game. However the ads, which are unavoidable, show obvious adult content. The game is rated 13+ so this should not happen. One ad shows a pic of a half naked woman surrounded by men and describes what is essentially gang rape. Another shows AI generated images of a woman being held down in a sex position - it’s for a book series that talks about mating rituals and humans sleeping with creatures (an excerpt is displayed). This is an inappropriately rated app because if you play the game, you can’t avoid the ads, even with paying. Borderline grooming. Please fix your rating or your ads. You can’t have it both ways.
Impossible without Ads
I agree with what other users have said the gameplay is generally fine until you hit a point where it is impossible to pass without ads. To be more specific, you will be given the exact same colors on repeat, even though the majority of the puzzle is covered in a third color. You might go the majority of the puzzle without ever hitting that third color, but still expected to keep finding the first two colors on repeat. It’s not fun when you can’t finish a level simply because the restraints of the game make it impossible and you can’t even get around it by being clever.
Too many ads
Game would be fun if it wasn’t filled with ads. And the ads last 2 minutes or more. Ridiculous
Not being able to listen to music in app
Not a good app if i cant multitask and listen to music! Used yo be able too, now its a bad app and will be deleted because of this. Really loved it but not now. And im not paying 10 bucks. Delusional game developers or whoever owns this app.
ADS SO BAD
Like others said, it’s nearly impossible to beat a level without watching ads to get second chances. You’ll watch 30 MINUTES OF ADS per level to beat it. Done with this POS game.
Can’t win without ads
You cannot win a level past maybe level 3 without watching countless ads. It’s frustrating because the game could be fun but every other move you have to watch an ad to continue playing. Choose a different wool game to play.
Mid game
It's really fun but there too many ads and it doesn't give you your reward for watching an ad. 10/10 ragebait
Impossible
Levels are impossible
TOO MANY ADS
The game started off fun at first. When I got to the washing machine level, I have to watch at least 10 ads to get halfway there. Even if you unlock all four wool holders, it asks for colors that’s deep in the inside. I had to delete it !
bad design in real game
too many ads. too easy to misclick on the wrong spot. too hard to tell colors apart. the ads are more fun than the actual game.
wayyy to many ads
literally makes you watch 10 ads or more every round of this game
Ads are unreal
They never end
Lots of glitches with no support
I liked this game. It helps with my thinking at times but I have started getting random Ads during play and the yarn colors are not going to spool colors it’s assigned to. I understand that Ads pays the bills but I expect it when I choose to view the Ad not during play. I can’t deal with being forced to watch Ads and there’s no customer support. Too much. I’m deleting.
Ridiculous Level of Ads
Don't try to listen to music while playing, the constant banner ads will disable your audio. I've been unable to listen to a single minute of a song uninterrupted because of these freaking ads. Also makes my phone heat up super bad because THE ADS ARE CONSTANTLY TRYING TO PLAY VIDEO. Don't download this ad, it's unplayable.
Paid to watch ads
If you spend over $10 on an app you shouldn’t have to watch ads for any reason.
Waste
It's so annoying. Some levels are genuinely impossible unless you sit through 10+ ads to get booster items. I tried to beat level 9 or 10 (NOT very far into the game...) so many times that it stopped being fun. I'm sad, because the normal/easy levels are fun and relaxing, but every 2 to 3 levels you get hit with a frustrating impossible level. I uninstalled it.
No credits for MANY VIDEOS I’ve watched over the months playing this game
None
If you like ads with a side of game.
They won’t let you pass the game unless you watch 6 ads. I’m trying to decompress and it’s just giving me more anxiety.
ridiculous
set up as as pay to win not relaxing at all
Impossible to beat levels without paying
As the title says
Please don’t purchase
This app is designed for making money only. If you try to play it without paying to advance, you are stuck not advancing as it’s set up for you to fail unless you pay, or you spend most of your time watching ads.
Love Hate Review
Great Game, Too Many Ads
This game is playing you
It’s set up so you can’t get through a level without watching ads for boosts. I just sat through 8 ads to get 30% into level 22. These are terrible ads too. They are frequently a minute and a half and always require some type of interaction. It’s simply not fun just a farm for views.
Game isn’t enjoyable anymore because of all the ads.
I’ve been playing this game for a long time and it was a way for me to relive stress and anxiety, but now it’s doing the opposite. Ads pop up during gameplay and ruin the vibe and some of the levels are made difficult to force you to watch Ads just to get through it. I don’t have to play your game and deal with this awful experience. Games are supposed to be fun. Deleted.
i like the concept- but not the ads
i like the game, but to actually beat each level u HAVE to watch ads constantly to even beat the levels-if u don’t it’s impossible. and with each level you prob have to watch about 10-15 or more 30 secs to a minute ads. do not be fooled all they obviously care about is money unfortunately
Not fun with ads
Way too many ads. I just watched one that was over 2 minutes. Ridiculous.
Too many ads
It’s advertised in other games as “no ads” maybe the first 10-20 levels it doesn’t give you ads but then you can’t avoid them. At the end of the level when it gives you your “prize” it gives you the choice of regular or x3 with an ad. Even if you choose regular it still gives you an ad with the regular prize. It’s so annoying I deleted it.
Need new chapters
It’s takes too long for a new book/chapter to update… what’s the hold up NEW LEVELS FOR THE BOOK/CHAPTERS
Ad King
This game is full of ads. I have played a lot of different game off the App Store. This game takes the cake when it comes to ads. If you like adds and want to waste time like no other watching ads. This gameplay is for you. With this game you will watch more games
Would be fun but…
They make it impossible to finish any of the levels without either a) purchasing things to help you with REAL money or b) watching a million ads that are 5 min long and not just one of them you will need to watch around 10 of them for each level.
You have to pay to pass levels
Started out with having to watch occasional ads to pass levels. Now I no longer have the option to pass a level without paying money (ads are no longer an option). This was my favorite game, now it is just a scam
Loved it Until Sound Bug
I love this game, it’s been fun and relaxing. Unfortunately, there is a bug that makes it impossible to turn off the music and sound, it continues to loudly play annoying music even when I have it toggled off. When I play I want to listen to an audio book or podcast and now I can’t hear it so I likely won’t play anymore until I see an app update until they fix that.
zero stars
developers definitely faked these good reviews. impossible without paying for ads. a joke.
