Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Whats with all the ads all of a sudden. Super annoying. Once games start irritating us we stop playing them – so please cut back on the ads.
There are too many pop-ups. It takes you about 3 minutes and 60 clicks just to start a game.
This was such a good game and actually matched the name but it is so annoying and now we have to follow this little pig dude who doesnt make sense and now we have to collect certain tiles to pass and we cant finish the whole level anymore. And it is like all AI photos. Dont play.
We used to like this game despite the pop-ups for its matching main game and decorating zen spaces feature. Ive been playing for years! But suddenly with a recent update they took away the zen room decorating entirely, which was half of the game and gave you something to finish levels for. Can this feature be brought back.
That was the selling point of the game for us because it set the vibe well. Im seeing a lot of other ppl saying the same thing too so please bring them back, thank u.
Way too many pop ups. You have to close out 5 or more pop ups every time you go back to home. Also, if you close out the app for an hr or more, any side game for extra boosts or coins resets to zero even though you still have days before it ends. So you can never get the extra boosts.
Ive played this game for such a long time and we do love it but as someone who collected so many completed rooms, to come on one day and see theyre just gone is like, not to be dramatic, kind of rude? Weird? We get wanting to update and make changes, but why not have just kept the rooms and added maps as an extra? What was the point of playing the rooms for all those years? We spoke with a member of the team who was lovely and added some perks to our account, but still every time we open the app now Im disappointed and barely want to play. We would argue maps are way less interactive than the rooms were. Makes us sad. Never even knew we took our puzzle games so serously. Please, in the future, consider your long time players and what was working for them.
Ive been playing this game for years, but Im very disappointed that the zen rooms arent part of the game anymore. Without being able to color and decorate the zen rooms, theres not much left that is zen about this game.
If the card collecting were Optional and not forced when we open the game – we would change our rating to 5 but we are getting g ready to delete the game instead. We dont want to collect cards, and we cant bypass the screen. We just want to play the match game we installed.
We are enjoying Zen Match. The graphics are beautiful, and the levels are challenging. We strongly recommend.
Usually love playing this passively when we have time, but not a super big fan of the new map features. It kind of ruins the aesthetics of the game that the rooms previously brought, not to mention the high amount of potions needed to clear certain obstacles take a while to gather. It makes it feel less relaxing and more tedious unlike the one decorative feature per flower(?).
We love this game, but we no joke have to click through 1-2 dozen pop ups whenever we open the game. Id even pay to get rid of all pop ups but thats not an option. We just opened the game to test and had to click through 21 screens just to do a level. Thats not our idea of relaxation at all.
Its relaxing to play before bed and if we download a new game we still come back to this one at night.
What happened to the rooms to decorate? We dont like this new map version.
Every other day we cant play because it says to check our internet connection, which is fine. Probably going to delete the game.
Thank you for making this app FREE! It is challenging, yet very relaxing. We need to use our minds more, and this is the perfect way to start or end your beautiful day. We appreciate you and your team for this app.
Way too many pop ups. After you complete a level, there are over 10 pop ups. You cannot continue until you complete close out each one. Considering deleting the game. Not worth it.
This is a 100% pay-to-play game. And even when you pay, you quickly lose. Too bad, if there were a little more payoff, we would probably get addicted and fork over a few bucks like we do with Royal Match! But since winnability is so low, no problem playing a couple times and moving on.
Would love this game even more if there werent SO many stinking popups that you cant turn off! Super fun but again, very difficult to play with you having to x out of so many popups after almost every level played.
The game itself is a great escape but it seems like every time we log onto the app there are about 50 pop ups that we have to get through.
Recently improved some areas like the timer on every level. That was awful. We think the rewards could be better but it isnt awful. The only thing holding it back is when you have built up some coins and can progress the game obviously throws in some very hard levels to get you to use it up. We have noticed that some that are not listed as hard or super hard can be even more difficult and you will get stuck there for a while until the algorithm decides to make it easier. That is our biggest frustration as it is clearly an attempt to get the user to pay.
Hello, this is GabiMabsa again. Im sorry if Im our previous review we seemed rude. Im so sorry. We just got upset cuz we havent played the game in a while (probably a year or two) and the old music calmed us down cuz we have anxiety attacks a lot, so to hear that its gone, we almost cried cuz that music gave us nostalgic memories to when we first got the game. The cartoon stuff in our opinion didnt fit. Im not saying this game is bad. Overall, Id give it a 5, this game meant the world to us. Its cuz of the new vibe that Im giving it a four tho. We still love the game, we play it every few days.
We love this game and have been playing it for years! The levels are challenging, but not too hard and we love when were able to do the limited time challenges. Theres only 2 things we would change. 1 – we wish the decorations for the rooms didnt cost so much. We shouldnt have to complete 5 levels to buy a candle. 2 – we miss when the game didnt require internet. We used to play this game all the time on planes and long car rides and now it requires at least 3 bars of network to even function. Other than that this game is totally worth it and we hope the developers take this feedback into consideration <333.
Ive always liked this game. Its super relaxing but our only problem is the constant room changing. The rooms will randomly change even if youve already started on the room so then you lose all the progress from that room and you dont even get your lotuss back.
Ive played zen match for years now, Im on level 4,000+ and we were really loving this game and all the changes but with this new update the daily challenges regressed back to how it was before. It uses one of your lives like before instead of a pass that refills within an hour if you fail. And the levels used to give you coin rewards for every tile left over after you completed the requirement to pass. That is also gone now. The shuffles and other power ups are pricey now and nearly impossible to afford without in app purchases. We guess thats the point though.
Good game but not a fan of the timing boards. Having a timer takes away from the game being relaxing. Trying to bet the timer takes away from the Zen causing Im rushing or anxious to bet the clock.
We played this game everyday until recently when they changed the rewards for each level. Come on developers. You Seriously have to now pass 12 levels to get 120 gold so you can have a free scramble??? Thats a lot of effort for little reward after getting to level 2317. You lost us.
Theres ways to advertise new events and features without 10 billion pop ups. It makes it unplayable.
The levels are challenging (sometimes too difficult but enough people have already complained about that) and this is a decent enough app to pass the time with, but there are a few issues. If you fail a level and run out of lives and then close the app… When you return later when lives are full, it will bring you back to the level failed screen and leave you with only 4 lives. This is just flat out unacceptable. On top of that, the feature where finishing a level with tiles left over would give you bonus coins was taken away… That was fun, and made you have to strategize more to try and get extra coins. Now you just get 10 coins and no extra.
Ive beat the 7-31 game 6 times. The game just freezes and when we re-open we have to do it again!? Updated today so we have the latest version The timer continues to countdown when we switch apps. For example, if we answer a phone call we will come back to the game and the time will be gone. We should not lose time when we leave the app! Please fix.
Once you pay for the game the levels get harder and all you get for them is 5 freakn coins. Ridiculous. Scam.
Was a good game, we have it on our phone and play it all the time so we downloaded it on our iPad when we got one, but the bottom is cut off every time we open it. It says Lets open your card album! But the part we need to click is not on the screen. It also doesnt sync to the correct level when we connected our facebook.
Cant the devs listen? People are complaining about all the stupid popups but they keep saying that theyre trying to introduce new events. We dont WANT the events, we just want to match our stupid little fruits on our stupid little breaks. The game itself is super fun, but its gotten so bloated with popupsnot even ads, just IN-GAME POPUPSI cant even enjoy it anymore. How hard would it be to let us opt out of the events.
Love love LOVE the game! Except the 20 or so adds you have to X just to get to play the game! Ugh makes us want to uninstall itbut other than that its a great game.
This is by far our favorite game to play! We absolutely love this game! We love the inspirational quotes they give you when the game is loading( the new board) it reminds us to always be kind!!! We strive to do that all the time.
Please dont get us wrong, this game has been there for us when no one else was, we just need less aggression from the pop ups!! It may even be better marketing if players curiously click on all of the fun achievements, bonuses, bundles, and more.
This game is very good when u need to relax :).
We love this game and have been playing for years. We love some of the changes made with events. Our only complaint is the reward for finishing levels, 10 coin is nothing when boosters cost you 75 or more coins. Its unbalanced.
Uses the same simple words over and over. Little challenge.
Just got the new update. Hate that they make the games timed now. Will probably stop playing. Its not relaxing now due to playing against the clock.
We like the game in general but for the last week it gives us a connection error and we can no longer play.
Really love this game, definitely love to play it on our IPad. Helps us relax but also helps us focus. Only reason Im not giving it 5 stars is because it always says we need to reconnect to the internet when Im on our iPhone. But our WiFi be connected.
We love playing this game but im not sure why we keep getting over charged on our purchases if we get something that $4.99 then we get charged $14.99.
We love this game, Im on level 975 but with the new update we HATE this game almost.. We dislike the time limit, Im old it takes us more time to finish. Ive not finished a level since the update 3 weeks ago. Thinking of deleting the game all together.
Used to love the game but now you cant play the game without the screens popping up to purchase. They come up every time you win a puzzle and they also take you back to the home screen often to just have several screens pop up to purchase. This is so annoying so we have stopped playing it as much as we used too. The relaxing zen it once was is no longer.
This use to be a fun game. A quick escape and break from work when needed. Now its simply a nightmare with all the prompts asking for money, coins, games until you get to the board. Disappointing that we are now trying to delete this game as it is more of a nightmare on match street than anything else.
For some reason they changed the game to timed. Until then we would have given a 4-5. Disappointed and will likely delete.
They added a time limit on the game now. So instead of zen or relaxing its more like every other game. Dont recommend it.
Ive had this app for a long time. We love doing the daily game. It used to be more challenging and now since the last few recent updates its very easy, and we dont like it as much. There is also a lot of pop up carp you have to get though each time you open the app before you can play. Ive bought the ads free version, so less of these popups would be nice. It used to be a 5 star game, but its gone down hill.
