Hear from the Players – Kavel Reviews

Our name on an app we had to download it ! Fun app guys!
So glad we found this game! Its just the right kind of challenge, you have to think, but its not stressful. And we love that it saves progress so you can go back any time when you have a short break. The design is gorgeous, the play is smooth, and we love the different play options, it can be as zen or as challenging as you want it to be. We also appreciate the fair premium price with no ads or IAP. Also its good on battery and storage, and it doesnt collect data. This developer did it all right, we need more developers like this. Great job developers, thank you for an excellent game thats super engaging to play! We highly recommend this game!
We love the game, its right up our alley but for the life of us we cant figure out how scoring works other than the more bombs in a single match the more of the board is removed and score is higher. But when we make a match the game shows a brief message about % + PieceShape(s). We think the % refers to percent of board that will be removed/cleared by the match but we have no idea what the pieceshape marks refer to… Frustrating just because we have no idea what it means and didnt see anything about it in the tutorial and there is no info on the dev website. Devs pls explain if you can. Thx.
A lot of fun figuring out the mechanics and what makes it tick and then using those to get higher and higher scores. Id love to see something like a daily challenge! That would be a great way to test our skill compared to other players, and would keep us coming back regularly.
2 needs: 1, have a page that shows the secret plays you can make when you discover them, and a list of what is left undiscovered. 2, implement slide-over for iPad: this is exactly a game we want to multitask with! (QoL #3) for those of us who dont want to sign into a global score … Thing- perhaps a local best score list?
Great game! Humble requests: the menu button should function as pause for game, where you can return to the current board. We often hit that to adjust a setting or take a break but you can only return to main menu, not your current game. There are so many themes! Previewing just the 5 tiles it’s hard to tell the difference. Theme select should show you a whole randomized board of the selected theme, or, if invoked from a live game, allow you to return to the current game with the new theme. Would be nice if some sound effects would change pitch slightly the faster or higher match count you go, especially in frenzy. Tiny Nitpicks: The text during tutorial is very slow. Tapping the screen should advance to a state where all text is visible without needing it to be "typed out". Small bug: the "next up" text appears on the home screen. Loving the game!
We really like the game but it doesnt seem to keep our previous scores so we dont know what Im going against. Update: looks like we had a Game Center issue. Works good now.
This is the perfect game to pick up when youve only got a few minutes to play. Its relaxing (except for Frenzy, which is intense in a good way), extremely customizable, and fun. Its really nice to find a matching game without all the in-app purchases that the others have, too.
We love this game but we cant see our high scores. We click on leaderboard and achievements but the links dont work. Please fix! Thanks!
Love the game. Please program high score saving without the need for game center. Thank you.
Great game. Its super well made. A really clean visual design with lots of beautiful effects. A great contribution to the match genre. We enjoy the frenzy mode the most.
Deadly simple idea, elegantly solutioned and pristinely implemented. Hell yeah.
This game is fantastic and well worth your time. Tons of customization options and a nice twist on the matching game genre. Familiar yet fresh! If Im in the mood for color-matching, combo-building, score-chasing goodness this is our first and final stop.
