Community Insight:
We started playing this on our work phone and was told we couldnt anymore. We wish we could transfer our data though from android to apple with the id but oh well. Overall its a great game that we like to play as it helps our adhd and focus on a task while also playing this and love leveling up.
It is a great and fun game for long car rides we just think it needs more because you get all upgrades so fast if youre on long enough and there just needs to be something to do. You should add new balls that make prices cheaper or an upgrade that multiplies the balls you have within the Max balls you have. We mean those are some ideas we would like but its your game and we just want more to do. Thanks, bye.
Just a nice casual game fun and relaxing just hope they add newer level layouts and maybe even some new blocks.
Nice little idle game that you dont have to focus on or watch constantly, low power needs make it an excellent travel game.
Fun and relaxing to play – dont NEED to pay to play.
Its good just when you tap on the blocks you should be able to upgrade the taps.
You have to watch ads for some bonuses. Fine. But the ads used to be 5-sec or 30-sec ads. Now they're double ads over 1 minute each for the same rewards. We're not going to play your game much longer.
TechTree games are honestly very talented at making games that are fun, engaging and very appealing to play. The list of things we like or admire about their game designs is pretty long (we play the Tower, Zen Idle and Idle Ballbreaker) and they deserve a lot of appreciation and respect. Conversely, the list of things we dont care for is very short in fact it really is only one singular complaint for all three of their games: having to watch ads for Royal Match. We understand the need to work with advertisers, but 9 out of 10 times you end up watching an ad, its for Royal Match. We certainly hope youre getting something very worthwhile from them for running their ads as frequently as you do. For the record, Royal Match actually looks like it may very well be a great game. But because Ive had to watch their insanely long ads so many times, Ive come to absolutely loathe it. We can assure you Ill never play it, no matter how many times the ad runs. And its not that the ads are bad in the way theyre produced, its probably more that they make their main selling point that there are no ads in their game. So it feels ironic, wrong even, that they would be so proud to be a game that has no ads when their game itself appears in more ads than any other single thing online. By a large, LARGE margin. And of course, to give it the additional layer of bad taste left in your mouth, it does that thing where after waiting the entire 30 or 45 seconds for the ad to finish, it then makes you endure the extra 15 second counter on the lower left side of your screen and for the veritable cherry on top, then finishes with the inexplicable extra-extra countdown timer on the top right part of your screen – from 5, of course – that it also finds an endearing way to manage to delay by a good 4-7 seconds before it counts down. So, not wanting to overshadow the great job that TechTree games has accomplished with its game development prowess, which is admirable, we would be remiss not to point out that it comes with a maddening repeat of this excessively long time wasting and patience guzzling process of advertising of a game whose main feature is that they dont have any annoying ads. Makes you feel like youre part of the problem just by watching it the first time you see it. Wonder how youll feel by the 100th time? Give it an afternoon and youll know. To summarize, the game is super and is fun to play. The price you pay in watching Royal Match ads, however, might end up being more expensive to your time than anyone can afford.
Amazing game, its exactly like the ads, and the ads arent super annoying, thanks.
Chill beats you can break bricks to.
Wish we could load our game from another device instead of starting over. Thats our only issue so far.
So fun and a great time waster/grinder.
We've been playing now for a couple of weeks and enjoy the game. We do have a few areas of confusion, but one in particular sticks out: Skills Tree. We've earned a few stars, even upgraded some skills, but for the life of us have no clue HOW we earned stars, or how we can earn stars. We think this needs some work. Ok, we'll tack on another one: holding our finger down on a shield brick. It doesn't do what we thought it should do, mainly continuously damage the brick. Not sure if this makes sense as an aspect of game physics. Otherwise love the game.
Amazing game. We fan of The Tower and we like this game too. However, the interaction seem limited. Tapping become useless once you reach the blocks having thousands of health, and the tap effect looks bad since it abruptly dissapear. The music is also limited. And also, there should be visual option to have the balls be neon outline like everything else in the game, either that, or have option for bricks and obstacles to be filled.
Please add more early game balls.
We can see it maybe getting stale after a while, but for now its solid. This is the first time Ive actually seen a decent deal for no ads, because it also includes no ads for ad rewards AND gives you a permanent 1.5x boost.
As long as u keep the fixing up and making things a bit better we love this game for work it works so well for what we do.
Make an upgrade to upgrade your click power.
Which is pretty egregious given the amount and cost of the in app purchases.
If you remove the game you cannot restore your progress in any form. Theres a very difficult path to restore purchases but they do their best to discourage you from do so.
We love it, we just wish the balls made noise.
Tis game is vary goud and its de best gmae out there period.
This is a game thats perfect for people who are splitting time between games and work. Its oddly satisfying to play and watch, and we enjoy the subtle details you see when upgrading the speed of a ball, we think our only complaint is everything feels VERY VERY slow at the beginning, outside of that we love it.
We love this game and have been playing it for quite a while now. Only detractor is the uneven game play in tournaments due to Android users getting updates before iOS players. The 1.9.9 update released for android has made beating Android players virtually impossible.
You should make a boss every 100 levels so there is a little challenge for people who want all the balls on one screen.
MORE BALLS. We would love to see more cool styles of balls and maybe different backgrounds and things like that.
First of all if you could upgrade you tapping to do more damage that would make the game better, also , if you could chose what cards to upgrade instead of it being random, that would also make it fun. All around this is one of the best games Ive ever played.
The game is super stimulating and rewarding. Its gonna start slow but once you get to the yellow balls it really gets going. Im obsessed. It would be cool if they added the paddle like breakout has, but we cant think of much else. This game achieves an experience other games are fighting to. 6 stars.
Would like the ability to save a game progress like the desktop version on cool math and an option to upgrade manual finger attack damage.
The only thing we would love for you guys to change is letting us save our progress. Without saving the progress we have to start from scratch if the app got deleted. Other then that we love everything about it and keeps our mind off things.
You should get this app! This app is rewarding and lives up to its value.
Cheater and hacker on competitions super annoying.
Love this game but do not fall asleep with it on. The buttons on the top and bottom of this game burnt into our phone screen.
Its what you expect and a good amusement. Only downside is that idle time is capped at 2 hours. Should let the collection go for however long no cap.
Hey there, we love your games! We like video games, but our nervous system is overactive on a good day we tried Zen Idle and then this game and theyre just our speed. Anyhow, this froze within 10 minutes of downloading it. We were on low battery, thats the only hint we can give you. Balls stopped moving, couldnt click on anything. The level started over completely when we reopened it, but we did have a little more $ than before. Hope this helps, but we bet its too vague. Anyhow, please keep making games that are accessible for folks with nervous system problems! And thanks for doing so.
We have played a few idle ball breaking games recently and our friend found this one and showed it to us and Ive got to say its quite entertaining and if much higher quality than the others. One thing we must say however, and this is our only problem with the game, is that the demo ball should pass through any bricks it breaks, and only bounce off of walls and bricks that it doesnt break. This was a feature in the other games that really piqued our interest and we feel it would add a little bit of diversity to what the balls do rather than everything just being bouncy. This game is very good in all other aspects though, keep up the good work.
Make more exciting maps different shapes and bigger maps and it doesnt fit our screen size its cut idf.
Progress in this game takes too long, the upgrades need to be stronger.
Something to add in a future update would be the addition of a clicker damage upgrader so that the player has something beneficial to do instead of just waiting to earn money.
We love the AD feature in this game, its optional as any app should be. But it is our only complaint about this game. Usually, all of the ads we see on other games/apps have a mute button. This app? No they will blare dumb music or sounds, excessively loud, we do not mind watching ads for this game, we think Ive watched close, if not more, than 1000 ads on this game. But GOD if we get blasted with another dubstep song on an ad without the ability to mute it, we will be deleting this app. Other than that, its literally the perfect game for anyone who loves the concept of a legit idle game. We love it, its just the fact that we cant control whether or not we can hear for the next 5 minutes after pressing on the option to watch an ad.
The game has really good gameplay but it does not have any way to save our progress if we moved to a different device.
Amazing and relaxing game! Enjoying ourselves.
Fun and a good time waster game. However we did an offer on the limited 2x offer wall and received nothing, which is weird because we did several surveys offers and they worked. Knowing that the offerwall was working we purchased an subscription to SiriusXM that was supposed to pay out 846 gems. Which is around $30 usd in game currency. So after it didnt pay out around a day later, we try to send a contact support ticket multiple times. It kept saying the same thing error with internet connection which is false because we reset our internet multiple times and even did it on different days. We dont know if its happening to others but we think the offers that require you to purchase something are fake or scams. Only because once you purchase it theres no way to contact them because theres an internet issue on the support ticket. All in all fun game and addictive game but we dont see a reason to not pay out on their promises, we think thats very shady.
This game is really fun we like how frequent the tournaments are and different things. One thing that we would like changed is that when we have the different menus open like the ball or cards menu. We want to be able to tap the screen behind the menu and the menu goes away rather than having to tap the ball menu again to close it. Idk if that makes sense but yeah.
Im very much enjoying this idle brick break game. The only complaint we have is on our iPhone XR the dollar amount is cut off by the speaker notch so we have no clue when we have enough to buy a new ball.
This game is pretty fun and kinda has a grind to it. We would recommend it to others. One thing that we would like to see is more graphics on the balls. It just is lame to see a green ball instead of like a ball with a skull to symbolize that its a poison ball. Also better ball upgrades like the scatter ball should have a upgrade for how many Mini balls it creates on contact with the walls. Thats all. Nothing much. It really is a good game though.
Everything is good in the game the background music,no lag, simple BUT where is the dang click upgrade.
Hello, we love this game however we would love if tapping did more or if there was a way to upgrade tapping. Also, we think it would be cool if every 100 levels the bricks changed colors.
This game is fun, we find ourselves playing for hours. Not to mention a little satisfying. Our small brain see balls hit bricks and we are satisfied,happy in the moment. The major issue though is most of the times the app itself wont open. We cant enjoy the game if we cant even open it. Most of the time Ill open the app and itll go to a black screen before kicking us out. We always try again and sometimes it just wont work and we have to stop for the day. We didnt play almost all day today cause it wouldnt open.
We cant stop crashing and Ive tried everything we deleted the game turn on and off our phone turning on airplane mode worked for a little then it started again its a great game but we literally cant play it.
