Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Im playing the game but it is saying there is no internet connection even though we have it. Can you please help us.
We played this game for years, but cant get anywhere in it anymore without spending a lot of money. It used to be so fun, but they keep changing it and making it harder to advance. Im just done.
Fun game but ads are constant so will delete.
We deleted it after one day. If you like candy crush, youll probably enjoy it. If candy crush is tedious and boring to you, like it is for us, dont bother with this game.
Just another below average game. Money money money.
A visually stunning game with great game play up to a point. No ads to begin with but as play continues the game will force you to watch ads or, like the Kingdom games, spend money to succeed. All in all play until the force goes into effect.
Been playing for years and our go to. Game is messed up right now. Some areas are greyed out in the games after update. Still love it though.
BUT. The amount of ads is ridiculous. Sometimes it will only let us play one or two rounds and will show us another 4 or 5 minute ad. Some you can click out of, but others last 5 minutes or so. It is very discouraging when all you want to do is sit, relax, and play a game. Many other games that are ALSO free have no ads, so whats the deal.
We appreciated being able to watch ads for a few more moves but for a week now, we havent been offered any ads to watch; why? Dont you offer ads to watch anymore? Or is there a limit of ads to watch for extra moves and/ or rewards.
We enjoy playing the game, its a good game but Im over the 30 sec to almost 1 min 30 sec ads we quit playing for months at a time bcuz of them.
While we love this app, we were disgusted to see a pornographic add for a 17+ AI Companion appwith a womans breasts and nipple size being adjusted in the ad for the app. NOT appropriate for an app that engages in a storyline for a younger audience. GET RID of those ads or change the rating on the app. Kids should not be exposed to that garbage. Parents should be able to trust the ratings.
Ive been playing this game for several years and what we are finding now that in order to complete a level there are never enough moves and you have to buy rubies to get the moves you need. Its very disappointing to see a company do this. Looks like after playing this for years we are going to drop it its too expensive to keep playing it.
This used to be our everyday game, but now with all the extra games and events they force you to play before you can get to the main games, its become annoying and not worth it.
Love playing this game so far, just started will see how the game plays on.
Love playing the game but the ads to watch to earn plays are very long . We watch more ads than play game.
We used to love this game for years. Now, its so ad ridden we lose interest. What a shame, it used to be our favorite.
We have played this game for a few years & enjoyed it. But, recently it seems as though the ads have gotten way too long. We play other games that advertise the same products, and their ads are much shorter, like 15 – 30 seconds. We shouldnt have to watch 2 minutes of ads. We realized we were wasting our valuable time on ads that are very, very repetitive & boring. Gotta go! Deleted the app.
Fun game but man theyll beg you for money at every turn.
Love this game and the design of it. We like it has different types of puzzles not just the same layout or puzzle above all we like the gecko in it.
We really enjoy the visuals, storylines, quests, and gameplay, but there are constant pushes for ingame purchases. When we open the game we have to close out of four different purchase offers and then a second are you sure window comes up. Just let us play without pushing us to spend money every 30 seconds.
We love this game, but recently things have changed, and now there is a long ad after every round won. Its ridiculous.
We enjoyed the game until the constant automatic ads started up. A few here and there is one thing (as its a free game unless you pay! We understand that) but when it turned into before and after each level we were done. A pity because the gameplay is actually pretty fun.
Where are all the fun things that were advertised? Those lead us to get this. Havent seen/played one yet. Its the same puzzles over and over, and they just get worse. Less matches to make you buy, buy, buy. We shouldnt have to purchase more helps to get thru a level. As if purchasing actually helped one pass it, always oh missed it by one. Sad that one has to click X five plus times to get back to play. So disappointing.
This app is like one of the old choose your path books that were popular back when, just without the option to actually choose your path. The puzzles are the same way, if you have vision issues and take a while to look at the things, the game automatically highlights what you need to do. Seriously, why bother? Add to that the issue that the game is constantly pushing you to join their Facebook group, and it is a flat out NO-GO, especially since they can ours a lot more data and information from peoples Facebook pages. Facebook is a fracking plague in the first place and we want nothing to do with it. The only upsides to the game is that it looks really good and kills time. Nope, Im going to stick with our jigsaw puzzle app.
This game has become absolutely obnoxious! Every second or third screen, you have a whole handful of pop-ups. You have to get through in fact to even get into the game when you open the app. Sometimes you have a good dozen different screens you have to close out and theyre not all the same as for how to close them out its become a waste of our time and stop redirecting us. Thank you very much. We will go to the part of the game that we choose.
First, love the game, been playing for awhile when it didnt cost so much to play, but lately its gotten to be rather expensive to play the game. Because we all know if we run out of time, we have to buy more time otherwise we lose our hard earned work. We get it- thats how you make your money. We would rather pay a fee up front and have unlimited access to the game. JMO. Im going to have to shelf this game and find something else.
A very clever, well animated good time.
Ive played this game for years, however, Im about ready to stop, due to the horrible glitches in it. It slows down, freezes and kicks us out. When it goes really bad it looks like slow motion. Fix the bugs so we can enjoy this game again.
Upset that Ive reloaded three times and app gets stuck loading every single time! Deleted it three times and totally shut down phone each time. Still fails!!! Annoying.
We have played this game for almost a year. Its fun when its not lagging. Even after multiple updates it plays well for a couple puzzles then it starts lagging very badly. Would be five stars if not for that.
These ads are so creepy, long and redundant! We were unable to even play the game on a recent train trip because we found the jiggling boobs, women caressing their breasts and the pouring of liquid into underwear to be inappropriate to be viewed by the nearby children. The ads go on and on then boom there is another one, different brand, same creepy women. STOP! Isnt there some way to choose the types of products that we have to observe in order to play the game.
Been playing this game for years and love it but its gotten so much harder. For ex – u supposed to remove 70 blue items and only 3-5 blue items show up on each screen or u have to remove 80 items with only 13 moves now is that fair.
We get tired of the candy crush games and we thought this would have more variety of puzzles as advertised. Its basically the same as Royal Match.
This game is fun and challenging enough to enjoy passing the time with. However, you will reach a point where you can play the same game two days in a row and not win its designed to get your money in order to advance. In addition, many of the mini games are so obviously algorithmic driven to prevent you from winning even when you do use existing resources or spend (more) money. In short, fun for awhile, but eventually a waste of time. Id rather watch a few ads.
First day, so far so good!! Seems fun.
We absolutely LOVE this match 3 game. It is like other match 3 games except the storyline is intriguing and captivating while others are boring and you really cant get into the story that much. As you progress further into the game the level become more difficult than the one before it and so on. The side games are also fun and you can win some awesome prizes that help you with the main levels. We love the intensity of the games also; fast-paced and exciting for everyone that plays. Now sit back and enjoy one of the best match 3 games Ive played before.
We agree with the majority of players mentioning the ads and the amount of them. An ad after every round is excessive, Im pretty sure everyone would agree. We especially dislike the ones with influencers hawking what-ever. We stop playing when the ads are endless.
This a nice game but of course once you get to a certain level you have to pay to play. At first you are given the option to watch ads and then that isnt an option anymore. Im ok with ads. We guess another game which wants you to spend more and more money.
The game runs fine for a few minutes then our phone gets hot and it make our phone run super slow that it crashes the game. We dont know if its the effects in game or the numerous ad pop ups but its pretty annoying because we genuinely am enjoying the game but we cant progress because it crashes.
Every time we finish a game this pops up again trying to force you to link to Facebook. No way to get out of it but close the game! Get rid of this pop up!!! Stopped playing for very long and just started again, only to have to stop playing AGAIN!! Get rid of these pop up and ads.
Ive enjoyed playing the game but realized that the longer you play, the more frequently your play is interrupted by ads or offers to buy stuff. Not a great way to reward your most loyal customers. Im at a point where we have to watch an ad after almost every puzzle. Ridiculous! Time to remove it we guess.
We only downloaded this game to write this review. The ad for this game is too too long. If the ad does not interest someone in the first thirty seconds, adding another ninety seconds will not help. We will delete the game.
We used to really enjoy this game. BUT, now you cant seem to advance without buying something. Whenever we start it up and get a timed amount of free life or other things, the game CONSTANTLY gives us more ads to buy something which just eats up our timed free life. You are forced to see all this other ads, conversations that are too long etc. Again to waste whatever free timed item we have.
We have been playing this game for over a year. Used to really enjoy it, but the frequency and length of ads has increased to the point that we cant stand it anymore. Wish we could just buy the game and be done with these obnoxious ads. Hello people, some of us will never buy anything from ads nor constantly spend money to play a game.
So far we like it. It has puzzles like bejeweled, and we spy. Pretty interesting.
We liked this game in the past but now some of the levels are literally impossible to complete unless you buy extra moves. Then you are stuck on a single level never moving beyond. Its not fun anymore. Exercises in futility are never fun.
We really like this game. The fact that u can go to different levels if u get tired of one youre playing. However Ive noticed over the last several months that the levels are getting so hard it is almost impossible to get past them without using your rubies for the xtra moves. And of course if u want more than a couple at a time that u might have accumulated, u have to pay for more rubies. Thats not cool.
Please let us just purchase the game instead of a thousand pop ups. Also, why cant a player just get to the game instead of game pop up suggestions and redirections. Very frustrating.
Do you like watching ads? If you do this game is right up your Ally. We have been playing for awhile and the ads are getting more frequent and a lot longer. The game is very frustrating.
Been playing this game for at least 3 years. The last 6 months or so we cant even open the app without getting 6 or 7 pop ups telling us one time change to buy now! Or do this mini game! Or Join a team!! That require 3 different taps to close. Its infuriating. We dont want to buy things or play a mini game or join a team. We just want to play the game we originally downloaded. We really love this game but we dont know how much longer we can put up with this. Edit: this morning we had to click through SIXTEEN (16) unskipable mini game pop ups, micro transaction adds, team joining, even adds and god knows what else. Looks like we need to find a different game to play.
