I’m about to delete

This is a money-grab game & im not stupid enough to ever pay for any game I can’t believe there are many that would. Because where does it end? It doesn’t. With that said; this can be a fun game but it’s too hard to distinguish between some of the colors & items. I do get needing to make revenue off of ads but the greed for 30 sec ads is over the top. Why would you ever develop a game that forces players out of playing it? If you lose all your 5 plays (very easy to do) it takes 1 hour+ to restore all 5 & at least 20-30 minutes to restore 1. You’d think they’d want to give you the option of watching a 30sec ad to restore & stay in it. Imo, some of these developers have no common sense. They must think they’re the only game in town. I have several match games that have options to advance w/o forcing me to leave. Who doesn’t like a challenge —but over-the top “I tried 3000 times to win this game” is about as asinine as it comes. No one wants to play a game that they simply can’t win or have to buy their way to the next level. Do better.

Enjoyable in the Beginning

Very addictive game that started out to be my new favorite go-to game. However, after the levels began to get more challenging, the fun began to fade. First of all, you must endure an advertisement after EVERY game, which wouldn’t be so bad except you don’t get any type of credit for watching it—no extra lives, no extra boosters, etc.—you simply must endure it in order to play again. Secondly, once you’ve used all your boosters on the more difficult levels, you aren’t able to get more unless you buy them with REAL money. (You do get a booster of some sort every 24 hrs, but you need more than that on harder levels.) Right now I'm on level 355 and have been for about a week. I’ve used all my boosters, so all I can do is play the same board over and over (with an ad between each play!), unless I want to shell out cash. Lastly, probably the most frustrating part is that you cannot earn “extras” unless you win the level. There are special items you can collect on each board. When you find a certain number of them, you win coins/boosters. However, you can only collect them if you beat the level. So, here I am, picking up gems, horseshoes, etc. to help me out, but because I can’t pass the level (because I don’t have gems, horseshoes, etc.) I don’t get to keep them. It’s a vicious cycle. There really should be ways to get extra lives/boosters.

Don’t Get This Game

This game is just like every matching game ever. It started out being really fun. There is a challenge where you have to collect items to fill a bar to earn rewards. If you complete the challenge, your reward is 1000 coins. BUT as you get closer to the reward, the target becomes more and more impossible. I don’t think I’ve ever made it half way to completing the challenge. There were technical issues yesterday, which kept me from requesting and receiving free lives from my team. Customer support kindly gifted us with one hour of infinity lives. Which would have been nice, if I hadn’t been stuck on the same super hard level for 45 minutes of it. Which brings me to what makes this game so terrible. There is no rhyme or reason to when you receive hard and super hard levels. There have been times when I’ve had three hard levels in a row, or finally beat a super hard level only to be confronted by another super hard level. And you are sure to get one whenever you’re getting close to completing an objective, so that you either lose or spend real money trying to win. If you want a puzzle game that you can play regularly without having to spend real money, try Royal Match. They’ve recently added a lot of ways to earn coins, infinity lives, and power ups without having to spend real money. Tldr; This game is addictive in — in a bad way! Don’t get it!

Got a Tip For You

I absolutely loved this game for the first week or so. But once I reached a level around 250, the ads started, and not a reasonable amount of ads. Every level only lasts a minute or two, but there are now ads after every single level. And you can’t simply close the ad. You have to wait a bit for an option to close the ad, and then, you have to wait a bit again for an option to close the link to download the app. I would have been okay if you could quickly close an ad after every level or if you had to wait to close an ad after every 10, or maybe even after every 5, levels, but having to wait not once but twice after every single level is a bit much, especially when you are racing against other players to win prizes. The game went from being fun to being infuriating, and I was just about to delete it this morning, when I thought I’d try something. After I finished a level, I closed the app and reopened it. Yes, it takes a bit to to that, but it seems to be slightly quicker and a lot less stressful than waiting for the option to close the ads twice. I’m sure I’ll still delete it soon since I downloaded Match Factory the same day I found Triple Match and Match Factory hasn’t been bombarding me with ads, but I’m going to keep Triple Match for now so I can play it if I run out of lives on my Match Factory.

Kinda fun at first, but then…

I feel like I was thrown into the deep end from the very beginning. There is no FAQ, or anything else to tell you how to play the game. You win *things*, but there is no explanation for what they are or how to use them- your only recourse is to use them and hope you didn’t waste something trying to figure out what it was for. There are all these little side quests, and requests to join “teams”, but there is no information about how anything works. I guess you can earn extra lives and also ask for or donate them, but I have no idea how that works! And now there is a L O N G advertisement for a new App Store game after every. single. game, and they’re so difficult to win- I’m tapping my screen with a pencil to be as precise as possible in selecting objects, and even when the object I’m tapping lights up, it can select an adjacent object and now I’m OUT OF ROOM after I used 100 stupid coins to extend my playing time… OH WELL! Another review mentioned that colors of objects can be difficult to distinguish, and that is absolutely true. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who is colorblind or has any difficulty distinguishing similar colors, and I think this was deliberate. I Sick of the ads and I refuse to spend $$ to play, so I am *this* close to just giving up.

Love/Hate opinion

To the developers: I have enjoyed playing this game, it has been very therapeutic. I have reached level 2020 and have spent my money trying to get through the hard and extra hard levels. I will no longer be putting my money into this game. Th game has become too Frustrating and No Fun over time. As I have progressed through, you have made those hard levels way too difficult by taking away time (only 1min. 39seconds on some harder levels), hiding my time and lightning boosters deeply underneath, and the items to be found are small and burried under way too many different items to match and clear. As someone who has played consistently and paid money, my opinion is to either not bury the boosters, give more time for the level, or have less items on the board. I like for the levels to be harder as a challenge, but not where I have to use up everything you’ve earned by playing well to have to play a level over and over 15 times. Then when I make it through there’s another hard level or only 2 or 3 normal levels then back to hard again. This is the game trying to make you spend more money to make it through a level. Something needs to be changed.

Gets too hard unless you pay

I LOVE THIS GAME. I’ve played it most everyday since downloading it over a year ago. I took away a star because it’s just like all the rest—money grubbing. I will always pay an app to get rid of ads and I figure that $5 is my part to the developers. I wish I could download a photo. I’ve been on the same level for a week +. It gives me six items I must find. And I have to find 9 of each of them—in 2 minutes. There is no way to win unless you buy stuff. In order for me to “earn” anything it takes many hours of play and many more of winning the levels before they will give an extra minute. And on top of that they started stacking all the cute items about 5 deep. Even though I had to find 9 of each item they were all hidden. So I had to make sure I found all three before I chose what to get rid of. Even though there was 9 of each one! I had to get rid of a bunch of things that didn’t count first, so that takes a lot of time also. I’m really sad to have deleted the game. I suppose making a game for pure enjoyment is out of the question. These developers are taking it in.

Disappointed

On the good side this game is engaging and somewhat addictive. It’s not a good game for relaxation as the speed required makes it very high stress but it does get adrenalin going. On the negative side you usually only get to play 2 to 3 normal fun levels before it gives you the hard or super hard and even some of the non rated levels are pretty rough. Largely they are hard to win without the special tools. These are grudgingly parceled out after winning lots of games which means if you want to play for longer than 5 to 10 minutes you will need to spend a lot of money or just quit playing and come back later which is what I have done. Up to now there has been a daily reward which made it possible, over time to get what you needed to move on but tonight that disappeared from the app. I didn’t totally mind having to wait a week to get what was needed to win one of their ridiculously hard levels but If this is gone too it means it will be impossible to ever move on without emptying my bank account. Not much fun getting on a game and quickly losing. I suspect this may be the end of my engagement with this one. But if you have lots of money you don’t mind wasting, go for it.

Not sure why this is so addicting!

I’m over level 2000 and thought it was time to write a review. I love everything about this game. There’s lots of ways to get lives, you can build up your bonus items easily, and the levels are the perfect difficulty. Some are easy some hard and some are really hard. The extra hard ones are still playable without purchasing anything, though it may take several tries depending on the level. None are impossible but you do have to be quick with your fingers which I have mastered pretty well. If you are not quick at clicking or visually identifying things, you may struggle with some levels more…but just know they are doable. I purchased the ad removal a long time ago and let me tell you: it is worth it!!! I don’t mind making purchases for this game from time to time because it’s not unfair or loaded with ads like other games. Download this, get the ad removal, and be prepared for hours of relaxing entertainment.

Fun but frustrating

The game is fun; but there are aspects that are very frustrating. Some of the levels are unnecessarily challenging. On some levels there are items that are very small that inevitably are going to be at the bottom. You really don’t have enough time to get through all of the items to get to the ones at the bottom. I’ve seen comments about being able to get to items at bottom more easily, but I have not had that experience. Other than the initial tutorial on how to play the game, I have not seen any other suggestions or skill tips anywhere. In other instances, there are items that are the same except for one minor detail. You may not even be able to see the difference until you pick up the item, which means you fill up your board and cannot advance. Some level seem to be designed to require you to use a booster. Once you’ve used all your boosters, you could be playing the same level for days. I also am not certain how the events work. But for instance, the island racer event, if somebody is in the higherlevels playing against somebody who is just starting the game, the person who’s at the lower level is probably going to win.

This game cheats

* they add items that you have to find, at the last moment before it times out, so that you never really had a chance, and were just wasting time. * if you have eight small items like bananas and sunglasses left, you’ll suddenly find that the table you were looking for was behind a banana…. or that 5 soccer balls are still missing. * I could swear sometimes an extra value item will be in one place, get covered, you’ll be looking for it, and it will suddenly be on the other side instead. * If there is a special event going on, it seems you will likely win each round less often, in order to make it harder to win the event. * If you are about to win a level on a first try, suddenly, your helps won’t work. You’ll keep clicking it and nothing will happen until it says you lost- this was my last straw today. * In the 3,993 rounds that I’ve won in the last 9 months (yes, it’s addictive but also continuously frustrating), I have NEVER come close to completing an event. My guess is you have to spend $30+ in real cash to win a single event that is then over and of no lasting value. Moral: Don’t get stuck in this carnival game that’s rigged to choose for itself, when you can actually win and when you’ll just be wasting time trying.

Game is Awesome-Ads are a Pain

This game is addictive! It’s great fun! I’ve told everyone about it and they have downloaded it too! I don’t mind ads…what I do mind is these ads are loud!!! I have the game settings on mute, but when the ads play, I have to click mute. Then I have to click skip, then I click and X, then I have to wait 5 sec to click another X. I play many games where the ads don’t make a sound and you only have to close the ad once. Developers…PLEASE fix this! UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO DEVELOPERS: I know I could pay for the app, I am very aware of this. You cannot close the ads quickly. And they are not QUIET! That is the main issue I have with the ads, that they make noise even though I have my sound turned off. Also, there is not one click, but four before you can close the ad. You have to click to stop the sound, then close the first part of the ad, then click done on the second part of the same and, then you must wait 5 seconds before yo can close the last part of the same ad. I am simply asking for you to remove the sound since my settings for the game are quiet. Thank you

Started out good, and I was enjoying it!

UPDATE: my first message requesting a refund for the money I spent or put my game back to level 1968 has been ignored along with the 5 or 6 other messages. As of today the newest version makes it impossible for me to message them at all. They obviously kept a very people’s money, mine included. I would not recommend this game unless you have money to waste. I am a senior on a fixed income and I guess these folks need to take my money too. A few days ago when I opened the game, it prompted me to look at their privacy policy. Since I had been playing the game for a while, I was surprised but I went ahead and did it. When I went to reopen the game, it had taken me down to level one. I was already close to level 2000! Silly me, because I enjoy the game, I actually spent real money on it. I am a senior, and sometimes I need something to occupy my brain. Now all of that money is gone, and they don’t respond to my requests. All I get is a canned response similar to what the people on this page get. So a word of caution. I don’t know how to fix it. I asked Apple to give me a refund for my purchases, and of course they won’t. I gave it a two star because I enjoyed the game, but the developers don’t seem to care about the people playing it.

AI Adaptation to Encourage Spending

First of all, it is a very fun game, especially starting out. Now the thing that bothers me is I really don’t mind spending once in a while to support developers of games that I like. The problem with this game is that after you start spending, it definitely starts, analyzing your gameplay to encourage you to buy more. If you spend money, it continues ramping up aggressively until it’s almost unplayable unless you buy coins. I know this is true because I have tested on multiple devices spending on one and not the other after I started suspecting the AI interference . It would make the same levels harder on the device, where I spent money, to encourage me to blow through more coins. Then when I purposely lost enough levels and tried to save as if I were getting frustrated with the game and on the verge of quitting, it would begin to make the impossible level easier and easier. So I feel less inclined to support a developer that manipulates its players like this. I continue to play though less than I used to. And I refuse to pay another penny now that I know that it only makes the difficulty increase.

Good but could be better

This game takes way to long to refill “lives” and it does not have enough rewards to allow a person to gain more lives without waiting 25 minutes to refill. Cookie Jam does a much better of job of providing ways a player can continue playing the game without having to wait an exorbitant amount of time. While this game is fun, it could be better at giving players more ways to continue playing, once out of lives, rather than pushing the player into making a purchase to do so. Additionally, if you don’t purchase this game upfront, you will be blasted with ads. I noticed these same complaints comes up very often in the Reviews. At what point do the developers start to take this into account? Again, Cookie Jam has done a great job of giving players options for more lives, of course once you exhaust them then there is a wait time to refill but it is not 25 minutes or more!

Adds are crashing my iPad & game is freezing Stealing Time I’ve won by achieving levels

Adds attached to this game now are crashing my iPad & the game friezes and then won’t start - especially when I’ve won levels & earned extra This is happening with ridiculous frequency & has me thinking it’s time to ditch this game permanently. Which is too bad because I’m in very high levels. :@( P.S I’m now at level 406 - it used to be fun . Then at level 350 they added adds. If you opted not to pay to see them they ran for between 1 - 3 minutes & if you had already seen certain adds it won’t let you skip watching one without causing glitching . Then the game itself started freezing up & you had to shut your entire device down to even move on to other tasks. And it usually happens when I’ve won extra time in the game. I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing these types of issues? I’m seriously on the verge of erasing the entire app from my devices. At this point I wouldn’t recommend any game from these makers.

Time Waster, super fun IMPOSSIBLE challenges

DON’T BOTHER! I actually love, loved, this game. But as of today, I’m stopping. First, I guess I quickly got over that it’s not the game they advertised, but that should have been a sign that the developers spend too much time trying to think of how to give false hope to keep the addiction (and hopefully get players to spend $). I have tried several times to get to the end of their cool challenges. But many, way too many games, are super hard and I’m pretty good at this. I PAID FOR NO ADS. But it’s still hard. impossible. and I play LOTS when I’m not working. I think this is the 7th challenge I’ve attempted. I’ve never finished a single one. I’ve spent a bit of $ buying helps, still unable to complete. This current bakery challenge 9/2/23, I thought after I got 130 cupcakey things, that would complete the 2nd to last level. But, no. I still need another 130 bun things (in 4 days) PLUS that final level will probably be 3 sets of 200. I’m done, a bit sad as I love this game, but failing to complete challenges in a favorite game, over and over, is too much. I will watch to steer clear of other Boom Box games. Bye

I would give it more stars buttttt

I would give it more stars but all this game wants you to do is spend money. You get 5 lives that are gone in a flash, especially if you accidentally hit a fallen object and fill you column which you have to pay to clear. The side games for rewards takes way to long to enjoy because you have to collect 60-90 objects to “paint, clear, or sweep” something but only get up to 3 of those objects per board. You rarely give 15 minutes of unlimited time as a reward and when you do, time starts immediately and then you have to jump through 10 secs of ads and so forth before each match so it’s wasted. I play Royal Match and I have received several rewards of u limited time, given chances for several free lives, played side games to earn rewards, and so on. I have also spent money on that game because it gives me more bang for my buck! The game is fun, my lives fill fast, and my team is great over there. Play it and learn from it. Otherwise, you will lose players and this app that has potential will be just another forgotten hoopla.

Fun but aggravating

Takes 30 minutes to refill one chance to play and will only build to 5 chances. Some of the hard levels are very difficult to pass- either my iPad screen is very sensitive to touch or the area around the objects isn’t specific because I touch an object and the one next to it is selected. This causes the boxes at the bottom to fill with objects not matching and a chance is lost. Also, the timer seems to quickly run out on these levels. Rewards are few and far between, so there’s not much opportunity to build up rewards. Every 24 hours, the game gives rewards but they will not go far on the difficult levels. For example, one magnet and one freeze time. Sometimes it gives 15 minutes of play time but with ads after every game, which most of the time includes four clicks to get off of it, around 15-20 seconds, most of the free play time is consumed with ads. I suppose it’s designed this way so people will spend money to buy extra game chances. (I do realize ads pay for the game to be available to play for free.)

Not as advertised.

I’m on level 1,062 and I figured it’s time for a review. I downloaded this game because it was advertised that all the items would be on a stack of shelves. Yet, in every level, it is a pile of items you have to pick through. This is fine, it’s addictive, but it’s not why I downloaded the game. Why not advertise what it actually is, OR create the game you’re advertising! This is not rocket science, developers. Why be dishonest? Also, another thing that irritates me is that if I don’t pass a level - because it’s timed and sometimes one gets distracted or whatnot - when you play that level again, they change the items to make it easier, like I was too slow and stupid to do it right the first time. This is not fun! It’s insulting! It reduces the challenge! And that’s what I like about the game, the challenge. Aside from these two items mentioned, I like this game - obviously, since I stuck around for 1,062 levels. But this will probably be the last game I will download based on an ad. Color Blast was the other dishonestly advertised game.

Fun at First, But Then…

I did enjoy this game at first. But eventually the hard and extra hard levels are impossible to beat without using multiple boosters—and even then some are impossible until the game (after you have tried a level dozens and dozens of times) makes it easier by putting almost everything right on top. If it takes days to pass one level, it is not fun. Also, the game does not allow you to move items aside to get to something underneath. That is particularly problematic on levels with only one or two sets of most items. The sensitivity is also an issue as quite often a different item than the one I touched goes to the bar. I frequently end up with a full bar accidentally because of that, and there is no option to use your undo boosts once the bar is full. So if you have a sensitivity hiccup when you are going super fast, it’s game over. The ads are also an issue. I understand why they need to have them, but they frequently freeze the game. I don’t have that issue with other games, just this one. That is particularly frustrating in competition events like the Boat Race since you lose if the game freezes.

Fun but also frustrating

I have become addicted to this game, which I have had only for a couple of months. I do have two complaints, though: 1) that it is ridiculously easy to accidentally tap an item you didn’t mean to, which I can understand when I’m on my iPhone using my finger, but I would think that using an Apple pencil on an iPad would make for more delicate, specific touches; and 2) I have a tendency to forget to keep track of the available spaces below, and often find myself out of space, which I know is my own fault; BUT having said that, there are many times when I was sure I had two available spaces left, but after touching the items needed to complete a match, I find the game ended with the notification that I’m out of space. The problem is that I can’t see where I went wrong (if I did) because that space is not only grayed out but entirely blocked by an ad. Can’t you run the ad separately so the players can at least see what mistakes they made?

I’m Done

I really like your game. But I want to relax, not get my stress level up because I can’t pass a level. I’ve been on level 100 for a week and a half. I’m sick of it. I get it, plenty of people have passed that level, but I’m so frustrated I don’t want to play anymore. I want to relax. Not kill myself. Update: The developer response is ridiculous and inane. I doubt they know what those words mean. Yes, I am aware that the levels get harder as you gain levels. DUH! My critique is that I want a nice simple game that I can lose myself in—not get stuck on a level for weeks at a time UNLESS I want to buy my way out. Obviously! I have better ways to spend my money than to buy lives, or coins, or time. And that’s your petty little game. My one-star review stands and I’ve taken the game off my phone and tablet. Don’t respond to me again. Or, if you do, find someone who understands English.

Do not download this game!!! Nothing but issues!!!

Do yourself a favor and do not download this app because it is nothing but trouble you will work and you will make progress and you will feel great about making that progress and then the app freezes and then you have to delete it and it deletes all your progress because it does not give you a place to sign it so when you’re all the way up in the 2000s and the game freezes like it does three or four times a week you end up having to start back over and it has gotten me so mad that I have decided that I will not re-download this and I will pretend this game never existed. you couldn’t pay me good money to download this game. This game used to be my favorite out of all the games that are out there but since the game started freezing up and it won’t give you a place to sign in like it did in the beginning, it’s a waste of time and absolute waste of time and the creator doesn’t care, obviously, because they’ve not addressed the issue I have left review after review about the problems I’m having I have reached out to the helpline. I have done everything I can and they haven’t done anything.

Triple match

I really love playing this game! One of my favorites ! After playing it for a very long time, (months and months,) I had gotten to level 1100 when suddenly my whole game disappeared and I was back on the first level. Freaking out I contacted support which finally got back to me, (I understand that they have few people answering many problems) They returned me to the level I had been at but all my tools and coins were gone,(I had so many!)and I was told I would have been able to recover them had I sent a screenshot of my progress so I am writing to alert others that this can happen and that you should take screenshots of your games in case it happens to you. I only gave 4 stars because it’s very hard to learn what all those tools can be used for and being a senior citizen I can use all the help I can get! Definitely download this game but don’t blame me when you get addicted like I did!! LoL Just remember to backup your games and take screenshots!

Good game but Frustrating

While fast playing the game, it will “pick” a similar item to your last pick. Almost difficult to change to a different item if a similar item is on the board. This is awesome and can allow you to snatch an item from deep below others. These rules go away when you only have one space left. With one space left you are often required to hold the item to be sure you have the correct one and it may switch when you let go - game over. This is not a lack of skill this is a feature written into the program. Notice how if you have only two of the same item and nothing else when you try to pick an alternate you often have to pick it twice. That doesn’t happen with only one space left. Often the game will chose an item that isn’t even paired with anything on the board. Just be careful with your last picks and try to run with more than one empty space. Good luck.

Ridiculously Hard!

Usually, I am the person reading game reviews that complain about how hard a game is and thinking, “it’s not really that hard and who doesn’t want a challenge?” However, this game is seriously hard and I have a solid comparison. Several months ago, I downloaded Tile Match 3D (which I love!). After I ran out of lives the first time, I downloaded this game to fill the downtime. I’ve been playing them both since then, but on Tile Match, I have almost reached level 3,000 and on this game, I’ve just reached level 500. Now, maybe Tile Match is too easy, but it’s the game I always go to first because it’s more fun and I can play longer. Tile Match also gives way more boosters and coins in challenges than this game. For example, helping a teammate gives you 2 coins in Tile Match, this game gives you 1. Devs - please adjust the difficulty level a little to make the game as fun as it could be or add a lot more opportunities to earn boosters to help with the extra hard levels.

Fun … but player beware

I have a few issues with this game. It is quite fun and relaxing, however, as soon as you run out of “cheats” to get through hard levels, your screwed. If you are working on an “extra hard” level (their wording) and you don’t have any cheats, it will be come so frustrating that you either give up completely or start shelling out cash. Someone called this a money grab game, and I see why. Second, the game play does not look like the game advertisement I saw - which made the game look appealing. I played up to level 1200 and never saw any different type of gameplay. Finally, there was a glitch where I could not complete a purchase. I thought it was on my end, so I tried to process a payment several times and did not get any coins. I ended up being charged for each transaction ($60 total). I submitting a request for a refund. It’s been three weeks (as of this note) and I still have not been reimbursed. I’m disappointed. I’m deleting this game because it’s too frustrating to play unless you throw money at it.

Fun until it isn’t

This is a fun game until you get up to about Level 1350. There’s no way to complete the Level 1360 challenge without using up all of your earned tools and buying more tools. I paid for the app as a way to thank the developers, but I’m not about to pay more for make believe stuff. I’ve been stuck on a stupid puzzle for days - 7 million small letters, exclamation marks, and numbers stacked 10 layers deep and I have to find a bunch of 4 specific ones that are on the bottom and are the same colors as the ones that don’t match. I know the game usually gets easier the more often you fail a level, but this level isn’t doing that and it isn’t the least bit fun now. I wish there was a way to go back a few levels, or change the puzzle type, or maybe play without advancing levels. I get that developers write these to make money. But fleecing people to try to solve unsolvable puzzles is just wrong. Oh, and if you are color blind, don’t even try.

Really Fun, but Eventually Gets Too Hard to Play without Buying Lives

I got hooked on this game really fast to the point where it was taking up hours of my time. However, it has managed to wean me from it quite a bit simply by getting to a point where it takes me as many as 15-20 lives to get through one level. Since I refuse to buy lives and don't want to be the one constantly begging for lives from teammates, I just quit playing until I'm up to the full complement of five lives again (a few hours) and get on with my real life -- a much better expenditure of my time. One other criticism is that the harder it gets, the less receptive it is to taps on items. I've also tapped multiples of an item and only one ends up going onto my bar while the other simply disappears. Many items also get too small not only to tap but to be distinguished from other items. It got a lot less fun from Level 1000 on.

Good idea turned into a cash grab

The game itself is fine. If the ads irritate you, you can pay to have them removed, which isn’t unreasonable. But as the game continues, it becomes impossible to progress without putting extra money down. You start getting “extra hard” levels where the items you’re looking for are completely buried under other items and the time allotted is very short. After you’ve played it unsuccessfully 6-10 times and used up all your lives, voila, the items are moved to the top of the pile. There’s a not very subtle pressure to spend additional money on power-ups if you want to keep playing. As long as you know what you’re getting into, have time to waste waiting for your lives to replenish, and can accept that the game is primarily structured to siphon money out of your pockets, it’s a decent generic match 3. Pay to play is pretty much the rule these days, and it’s hard to find any games that haven’t been turned into a money making scheme.

Love it but…

I know the idea of any game is to make money and if you can with ads then ok but when the levels get so difficult that you cannot win without spending money, which I will not at this point, then it’s not fun anymore but causes anxiety. I loved it, I really did and still do but if I’m forced to pay to be able to win, then I just stop playing. When I run out of lives (which we are forced to wait it out or pay) I just close it out and go play something else. Waiting 10m for more lives is not a threat to me. It just means I take my attention elsewhere. So what’s the purpose of making us wait to reload lives sometimes hours? You just lose us to other things. No mini challenges to win extra time to help with the extra hard ones. Just keep it fun guys. If it’s fun then people might spend money but being the only way to the next level? No thanks. I really love playing but it’s frustrating.

Great that cost too much!

I spend a lot of time and unfortunately a lot of Money playing this game. So for 1. The Arctic Adventure, you are better off quitting at the first prize. You get a decent amount of prizes, but if you stay all the way through (if you can beat all those boards to get there and may spend some money along the way) the 1000 coins you have to split with about 40 other players. NOT WORTH IT! If you think your going to win enough prizes to keep playing think again. For the amount of puzzles you have to beat just to win 10 coins is ridiculous. I play other puzzle games and i also spend money with them but they also give you enough to at least keep you playing. That’s something you are not going to get with this game. Besides the amount of money you need to spend just to keep playing this game, the game itself is fun and entertaining! But i think if they want to keep people playing there going to have to give a little more back!

Great game

This is a fun and very challenging game at times. Some levels are nearly impossible to pass, but I’ve figured out strategies that work to get past them by using the accumulated tools that I earn by passing other levels. I am on level 2,381, and I have not spent a single dollar in order to pass any of the levels and do not intend to. It is possible to play this hour after hour, for free, especially if you belong to a team with 4-5 actively playing members. My one and only complaint is that the game freezes unpredictably from time to time. It takes turning my iPhone off and back on to unfreeze it. Maybe it’s our wifi or maybe the game doesn’t run well on unlimited data. Dunno. But it happens infrequently, so if that doesn’t bother you, and you like match games, this might just be the game for you.

Fun to Frustrating 😖

It’s a good game. I like it. As others have noted, in the beginning the game is fun. As the levels progress the game becomes very challenging and not as much fun. Here are some of the issues: 1. You only get 5 lives at a time. If I’m on a difficult level, it takes more than 5 lives to get through it. Heck, sometimes more than 25 lives! 2. It takes hours for the lives to build up again. 3. A good thing is that sometimes you get free lives. The problem is the limit on the lives you can accumulate (limit is 10). If you get a gift of 5 free lives when have 10 lives in the bank, you lose the gift. You don’t get the option to replace the gift for something else useful in the game (I.e. fan or magnet). As previously mentioned when on a difficult level, extra lives are needed. Lives are the ONLY thing limited. 4. When time runs out, you can accidentally purchase more time because the pop up will appear right where your next move was. There should be a confirmation. Suggestion: Take a page from Sudoku and add difficulty levels (I.e. easy, moderate, hard, extra hard, expert). This way the player has some control and can play at a level that is challenging for them. And can play against other players near their level when the boat races are offered. This would definitely open up the game to a wider range of players.

Don’t pay for ad-free version

I loved this game. I played it constantly. Then I paid for the ad free version thinking it would just remove ads between games. Nope, you don’t get ANY ads, which sounds great at first. But you don’t get the option to watch an ad for extra time so you can continue the game. You don’t get an option to watch an ad to clear the tray so you can continue the game. Forget being able to complete extra hard levels. Forget competing in the different games to get extra coins. You can’t complete enough games in time to ever win. Eventually you go through all the boosters and then you will have to pay more money if you want to be able to pass harder levels. I’ve emailed support multiple times. They say the are working on an ad-reward update but no details on when it might be available. I’ve deleted and reinstalled, it still knows I paid for no ads. I’m so disappointed. It was such a fun game. I still play, but it’s not as much fun. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

This game really is a lot of fun, but…

I really do enjoy this game. I do get a bit frustrated though when I FINALLY get through a “super hard” level, only for the next level to also be a “super hard” one. When that happens, I usually feel very defeated and stop playing for a bit. The only technical complaint I have about the game is the green pencils! I understand that it adds to the challenge when there is only a slight difference between objects (different color stems on apples, for example), but there are three shades of green pencils, and I honestly can’t tell two of them apart! I actually screenshot a picture of them and I literally cannot see a difference, so I have lost a number of games as the result of my just “hoping” I pick a match and picking the wrong one! (A couple of the flies I can’t tell apart either.) Other than that, it really is a fun game! (Thanks for listening to me complain!)

Great game until…

I’ve been playing this game for awhile now, couldn’t wait to hit level 300 because it would be a great milestone. I hit level 300, and then I stop playing and go to bed. I wake up in the morning and the first thing that popped up in my screen was an ad. Never happened to me before, I don’t know where it came from. And honestly I wouldn’t mind the ads if they were actually appropriate. I saw an ad the other day, with some guy in a bed with a girl in a bikini. That’s definitely not appropriate, especially for kids that love this game, either those kids won’t know what it means or they will and start getting the wrong ideas. For now, I will prolly just turn off my internet while I play. I like how the developer made it so that you only get ads once you hit a high level, that way your already addicted to the game and you watch the ads MORE If your child wants to play this game, try to find a knock off version that doesn’t have ads

Fun but expensive

I’ve been overloaded in life this past year. As a person who doesn’t play games,I can’t explain why I thought playing a game would be helpful, but it has been a great change of pace. However, despite doing well, the rewards are very small while game continuation requires much more than you can earn. I’m to the point where I need to stop playing because you can’t move on without spending money to progress beyond some levels. Without the extra spend, it actually becomes unfun. I’ve only spent about $12 so far, but I’m only on level 257. I can see that as the difficulty increases, so will the spend. After 257 levels, I would have expected the board to change, but it’s exactly the same. The only thing that changes are the items you are searching for on each board. I wonder how many levels you need to reach for the game to change.

Fun & Very Annoying

I played this game for quite awhile and it was a blast. Was becoming one of my go-to games. So far I have been able to avoid spending money in the game. That is one gotcha in this game Ince you get really addicted. Recently they did make a change to make the game more fun as they say with their updates, or maybe I got to a higher level and haven’t spent money. The fun is that I now get to watch annoying ads for other games every time their is a game stoppage or game change for any reason, just like every other game I have seen in this software group. They want to get you interested in other games so you will download and play them, also. I prefer a game that I can just play and relax. I can’t relax when I am annoyed. This game is no longer fun when I am looking at ads almost as long as I am playing the game. Don’t get this unless you like commercials that last as long as your game or want to get into a money pit. I have more important things on which to spend my money than games.

About to delete

I have noticed a pattern. After many tries on a level, the game mixes up and/or issues less obstacles to try and help you win. That is ok, my problem is that the ads are longer than the time allowed to win the level. The ads are Ridiculous!!!! I do not pay to play. I am always up for a challenge but if you don’t have any boosters, it can take days before you pass a level. My advise, less ads ( as was requested ONE YEAR AGO) with the promise of sending to the developers. What happened? Sadly, I am done Thank you for your response. I understand the need for ads, but why are the ads longer than the playing time? The easier levels also have longer playing times than the more difficult levels. It doesn’t make sense to me

Great to play, extra lives too limited

The game maintains interest, and applies enough pressure to make you push to finish matches before time runs out. Difficulty increases at a decent pace. I love it. However playtime becomes limited quickly. The game pushes you to join a team to share and get lives. I did, but you can only give one life to a teammate, thus far. You can request one from a teammate every 4 hours or so. You have to wait 20 minutes to replenish a life and there are practically no reward efforts to get you an extra life after the initial download. The amount of wait time is a disincentive in harder levels because you can lose your lives quickly and end up waiting much more than playing. If it continues this way, I will likely delete it. It needs to be a bit easier to get lives to balance the waiting and playing ratio in order to maintain the enthusiasm. It would otherwise be a 5 star rating for me.

Less fun when you get to higher levels

**edit** so, in response to your answer, you’re making it less fun ON PURPOSE. Since it’s built in that playing the game consistently is “rewarded” by having the games get harder and less enjoyable for no reason, I have to consider the added aggravation into my rating. I have therefore changed my rating to 2 stars. Thank you for clarifying your position. I really enjoy this game, well, enjoyed. I’ve gotten to a place (above level 2000) and there are far too many ‘hard’ and ‘very hard’ games in a row. So instead of enjoying playing, I’ll get stuck on the same level for 2-3 days. There is little to no time between hard games to build up tokens to use to alleviate some of the difficulty. Playing the same level repeatedly is boring and unfulfilling. If it had only happened once or twice, I’d have grumbled but moved on. However, it appears to be happening consistently now. Prior to this I’d give it 5 stars, now I give it a 3 (perhaps too generously).

Waste of Money

Like the concept! Very addicting!! But the Ads are long and annoying. Ad tells me to come play their game totally ad free! Counter productive actually. Do you really want me to leave and go play another game? The ad is tempting me to do just that. Ive stayed and played to level 500. It was consuming a huge part of my day! The ads were so annoying and long I purchase the No ad version for $4.99. Aaahh finally no ads. Well now the levels are so hard if not impossible to pass. Timer runs out way to quick. I have no power up’s to help so now I’m stuck. I’m guessing you want me to spend more money to move up!!! Been on level 2450 for about 10 days now. This board has mostly blue items making them blend in and the smaller items are under the larger items. I’m really getting annoyed and bored with trying to move past levels. I’ve gotten pretty good and can eventually beat levels. I’m quick and should eventually be able to move past levels. I’m about to just delete this app! I’m very disappointed I spent real cash here Hate to say it.. but I’m deleting this app! I’m not spending any more money just to move up! I would think after playing a board several times the app would ease up on that board eventually making it passable. I guess it can be beat if played 100 times but I’m not into playing same board over n over n over n over………. What a waste! Don’t waste your time or money!

Tired of Ads Freezing

I enjoy the game, but it's nearly impossible to play lately. Several of the ads freeze and there's no way to move forward. It can take as long as an hour before play can continue. This is simply unacceptable. The fact that it happens often right after being awarded free unlimited lives or lightning bolts for 15 minutes. Occasionally, it will freeze during the game while the clock runs out, which means a loss. Ordinarily, I wouldn't mind much, but it seems to always happen when I have a meteor strike going. It's do frustrating that I'm thinking I need to just delete and start again! Then, if still freezes, just delete altogether. And guess why I'm writing this review right now? Yep. The worst offender - the ad for Solataire Smash is frozen on my screen. I didn't even get to play at all! Just opened and was presented with an ad immediately and it's frozen. I'll give it one last chance, then just walk away I guess.

Beware of online purchases

I LOVE this game and am seriously addicted like I’ve never been to any game. I would give it 10 stars if I could BUT! I would think twice about buying any additional play time or coins. Last night I spent $2.12 for an additional minute. I only got about 10 seconds and then my round timed out. I immediately wrote to their support staff. Twice. Both times I received a reply saying “sorry… we can’t refund you as you used your minute.” Oh really? Were you there next to me to verify that? I did NOT get a minute. Either the site crashed or there was a technical glitch, but I did not get a minute, wouldn’t lie about it, and these guys dishonestly made $2 for nothing. I have since escalated this up to Apple and hope to get resolution with them. Great game. Dishonest, unreasonable people. (Yes. I know it’s only $2 but it’s the principle of the matter.) Think twice before buying any in-app purchases.

It was fun until it wasn’t

First don’t be fooled, it is a little bit like gambling but with no payout. If you cave and start buying coins, because the game is quite addicting, those coins will evaporate in one game and it is very difficult to “earn” coins. I went through a weak period where I bought coins until I had to put myself in a time out. Once I refused to buy anymore coins the games got so difficult it was ridiculous. I got to level 480 and had to call it quits. It’s pretty stupid to pay even $10 on a game like this, let alone more. They sell packs of coins for up to $100…for real! Think about what you would get for that $100 - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I deleted the game because it became clear after about a dozen attempts to beat level 480 that I would not prevail unless I paid them off. Just be careful if you have a gambling problem; I’d say to steer clear of this game and any others like it.

Honest review

This game is very fun for the most part. It is sufficiently challenging, but not so hard that you’re stuck on a level forever. There are many opportunities for you to earn tools that will help you throughout the game and even if you wanted to purchase those tools, it is not super expensive. My suggestion is that I wish there was a free play option meaning that you can turn off the timer and just take your time to find all the objects. My one major critique is that from time to time, the game uses the letter H and the number 8 as objects, the player is supposed to find and match. I don’t know if this is some kind of mistake, but I thought it was pretty well known that H8 is the white supremacist abbreviation for hate. I hope the developers can fix this because it is very disturbing to see and not know if it is purposeful.

Erratic picker accuracy limits game

I have been enjoying this game. A mix of difficulty and object types that your eyes and brain have to learn to see. However, some levels have a problem with the accuracy of the picker. Complex levels have proportionly less time than easy ones, and boosters are gained by winning or by paying. All of which is fine until that wonky picker comes in. I am on a level in the lower 600s with dragonflies, bow/arrows and 4 variations on ants and can make no headway. Using a Pencil, and slowing down to really watch, I have selected one item and watched a nearby one jump to my bar, repeatedly. I can deliberately select a large item, like a coffee cup, and have the ant nearby jump to my bar. This level is particularly bad, and enough to send me on a break from the game. The game often wants to match what you already have, instead of doing what you ask. So its far too easy to fill your bar with things you dont want. So much for strategy.

Omg let me play for more the 1 sec b4 asking to rate

Once again, I get a game that I just download and I play like for five seconds and I’m getting a pop-up asking me to rate the game honestly how can I rate this and say oh it’s great or oh it’s crappy when I haven’t had five seconds to play it. I literally I’m getting so sick of games doing that but I think from now on if I get a pop-up saying can you rate my game five seconds after I download it and opened it and just started to play it I’m just going to delete it and give it a bad rating and leave it at that because why are you asking me how good your game is if I haven’t had five seconds to play it why don’t you ask that when somebody’s played it for 24 hours not after 24 hours, but after an actual 24 hours of actual playtime on the game my Lord, this is the dumbest thing that you can do as a company you’re never going to get accurate ratings because you’re always gonna get a reading that somebody gave you after playing your game for five seconds. It’s dumb.
