Community Insight:
Sometimes we wish you could have the winnings as $1, $3, $5, $7, etc . More opportunities to win. Thanks.
.this fast paced game is one for a person that is a tactician and a strategist – in order to secure a high score, you must think about every move so that you can be sure to leave enough spacing to continue to make and to explode lines of jewels! But despite the fact that you dont need to have a high GPA to have fun, you will definitely need a sharp mind if you want to be a consistent winner.
Ive been playing this game for well over 8 years now almost every day. Jewel blitz has brought us much comfort when Im bored having anxiety, etc. This game is great for someone who needs stimulation, who likes problem-solving, and puzzles. Over our years playing Ive learned a couple of disappointments, the biggest one being in theres no satisfaction of ever winning any real money. A couple years back, we got mailed a skillz coin for receiving a trophy that was well deserved (considering how much we play). We have completed almost every trophy that there is to be played, and we have put a lot of money into the game and have made NOTHING back. The free tournaments are fun for practice, and you need to play A LOT of games to even get $0.60 for a pro tournament game. A lot of the times we feel like Im playing a robot because every time its almost the same person or their score is way higher than ours and we just dont think thats accurate considering the circumstances. Not to mention the amount of money that you receive back from the tickets. You have to play an astronomically amount of games to even get a little bit of money back, thats why its addictive. If you win 40K ticketz you can finally exchange the tickets for $2 and we promise you youll never up your money. Also playing soo many practice rounds will never be worth it because once you finally get that amount and play for real money you will always lose and then end up back to where you started. Its a great game to play for fun, but we would never recommend putting real money into the game.
Tetris with an added color coded point system makes the game even more competitive.
Been playing for years. Its a nice game to play during breaks.
Aside from some crashing (they do refund entry fees for crashed games) we really enjoy playing this game.
Lots of fun! The more you play the better you get.
Great game and wonderful experience.
Really feelin it.: Just wish that the login bonus was a little more Z coins.
Worth the space we enjoy most of the Skillz gsmes.
We only play skills platform game now cube cube is our favorite but they have lots.
Seems it wont let you have a winning streak of more then 3-4 wins. We just spent the last money Ill spend on it. Unless it evens out more. Its kind like going to the casino dont bet want you cant lose. Your most likely gonna loss it.
Really fun! If you like Tetris and puzzles this game is for you.
Fun, pass time, win money, whatever you play for, guaranteed great time.
Its really so much fun! We like the different levels because you can actually appreciate how you are getting better and better.
Best games ever. Love all the skillz games.
Sometimes we wish you could have the winnings as $1, $3, $5, $7, etc . More opportunities to win. Thanks.
We love this game In fact we live all the games in the Skillz app. Even the ones we are not good at.
Easy to play, fun and truly can earn cash. Best puzzle game Ive played.
Fun game to play to pass the time. You can win money but its not a money maker, unless you have the extra cash to throw in you are unlikely to hit the big prizes. You can also play with tokens instead of real money which is awesome. Overall 10 out of 10 big fun.
We love this game, helps us with stress or when we cant sleep.
Customer service is good! The game crashes and they always help us out.
Love playing highly addictive never won much money but we also never invested any.
Every time The Im stressed we played we know the Im not always win but a take things out of our head sometimes you can add money to your account and play for real money or just play your ZZ its fun we recommend it.
Great quality and service, A1 game.
This game is both FUN And CHALLENGING! It is also ADDICTIVE! Try it, youll LIKE it.
This game is pretty awesome great brain game very addictive.
We love challenge any games and thats amazing long score we can do it.
Best real money gaming on phones.
This game will keep you on your toes with the many different sizes of shapes to fit to clear. Plan well or the game will be over quickly. Very addictive gaming.
Love this game cant stop playing.
Its a very unique game that makes you use motor skills to keep the mind alert.
We love it the Best to keep you occupied.definitely a SKILL Builder & Time FLASHER.
Easy to play, but not easy to win.
Similar to our all time favorite.
Love this game. Deco thats helped us earned a few bucks with fair competition and has helped us become a better Tetris player overall.
We enjoy the game – our only issue is when playing the $1 game, we are actually only winning thirty cent and not the full dollar. Thats definitely deception and false advertising which people can sue for but we digress.
So far so good what happens decent we got to compete in certain challenges of pay half for you they give nicer word specially when you receive the cash bonus rewards we love it just hope we can keep a positive balance to keep playing the game very nice graphics and Isa nice amount of challenge if we get more money and keep it positive Ill be back to give youFive stars keep up the great work.
Like all Skillz games this is actually a front for a scam. The developers initially incentivize you with lots of wins to keep playing and potentially add cash. However, after a while, the App will then repeatedly match you against the same players who almost always win. We average approx. 38,000 in this game (relatively very high), but after winning too frequently, Im then matched against 2-3 of the same people who score around 50,000! Honestly, we cant even fathom how thats humanly possible. We wrote in about this issue of matching against the same people who frequently win and they said that we should just practice and get better. Haha! First of all, our score wasnt the point, it was the matching frequency, the near certain rate of these opponents wins, and the inflated amounts they would consistently win by (we guess that was too hard for them to comprehend, and/ or they were differing because they knew it was true), but for additional qualification, we will note here Ive played this game, and many like it, for about 7 years. Im already at the upper level of what we can do for strategy, speed and whats really possible. Now, if there are some people out there who can honestly and consistently score that high without cheating, our hats of to them! But the actual point remains why then should we only play those players (about 95% of the time) after the initial wins? : D Great matching algorithm! : D If a fair matching algorithm did exist, then the litmus test would of course be the assortment: playing against a variety of people our same Skillz level who score differently, not the same people many many times our Skillz level, who almost always win!!! Haha! Thatll keep you in check – oh if you start winning, well give you impossible odds! But thats their point! Haha. – They only want your money, and dont care about ethics. Another facet of the scam is how the developers will claim the matches have the same pieces. We can see that. Ok. That may be the case, but then they certainly are not random; there is no way. Even if they claim they were randomly chosen, like in a potential response to this review – or the many other reviewers who experience the same – it may not be in the sense of random as wed initially think: For example, there are many times when you initially play (after several days off or when opening the App the first times) that youll get multiple large 3×3 blocks at opportune times. Great! Thats fun. Later on, though, youll almost always receive 3x3s and long 5 section pieces that dont fit at critical times. Our play style is not changing, but the game consistently becomes much harder, impossible even when the game is played much more often, and/ or when the stakes are higher! Haha. Its not an average curve, there are consistent trends linked to usage and wins. When you play more, youll clearly be a victim to it, too. You can see other reviewers who note the same for a reason. The fact remains that if the difficulty can increase or decrease at these opportune times (or when first opening the App, compared to frequent usage) it already shows its clearly not random, its tailored to some degree. Any degree of tailoring means not truly random. And finally, we often get to the point where we have to wait for another opponent to join, but can pre-play a match. Hmmm. Have you ever noticed how most games like this are lost? Haha. Ive lost most percentage of our games that way. Im very suspicious they have an algorithm that analyzes your set score – or even the players who won more recently – and then determines the pieces for that player so the opponent then gets the same pieces, to check that claim box, but will likely have presented options that work better with their game set or arent at least impossible. As you can start to see, the technical language they claim under player matching, random and same pieces, is actually a clever way to rephrase other viable actions and pitfalls, any derivation or iteration thereof is a scam and built to take your money. Sounds fun, right : D Its the classic, cheap carnival swindle with the twist of a modern App -built against you. Id stay clear of this game and actually all other Skillz schemes, too; what a lousy company – Ive had so many negative experiences with them in other games, and with their unnecessarily and consistently rude representatives! Im tired of being treated so poorly. We also have reported them to Apple for misleading statements. Lets see if they remove this post, too! That would be fitting for their character. We think you can tell we have had an awful experience. Theres a reason for that.
They match you consistently with players you can not beat. They say they take cheating seriously, but do nothing and we repeat nothing to stop the cheating. The same 4-5 players win every week and are actually members of the Skillz team. Unfortunately it would actually be fun if they did not limit your score so these same 4-5 players could win. They basically steal your money. Payouts are real, but you will never win. Kind of like playing a slot machine that you can only win 1 out of 100 spins.
We do have fun with this game, and does it earn good? Nah! Impossible to win a big $$$ but love to play anyways. Try this game as your mediatesmile.
We know theres so many different apps to choose from, however, this is a great one to satisfy your matching needs. A great interface with ease of use and actual money to be made if you guys imagine them matching skills.Hope to be playing against you soon.
We truly enjoy playing this game its addictive in a positive way.
Not a scam -You can win real $ in this game -its super fair as when you get better, youre paired with people at your level. Want to practice? Free practice rounds. With time there are also side bits / coin type credits you can save up to get gear, prizes, and literally with time you could trade up to a Cartier Watch if youre patient and diligent! Awesome.
Wasnt sure if we were going to enjoy this game, but after we tried it the first time we absolutely love it.
Love this game! We get started playing when we got into bed and the next thing we knew it was 4:00 am! Time sure flies when you are on a roll.
Competitive and interactive. Love the support when you have an issue with something. They are quick to resolve and make it right.
This game is awesome wished it lasted longer.
You can legit win money if/when you deposit money to bet with.You can also play with their tokens that you can bet with and they give you free ones every several hours.
Great game !!! So much fun, addictive.
