Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This is one of our favorite games and u can get free gifts also.
Its fun to actually play against someone.
Love this game been playing almost two years and hope theres many more to come of this game.
Downloaded this game through cash giraffe. They pay you to play and win.
The best game we have ever played and yeah we love it and it is so easy to win and so much fun to play.
This game has great potential; however, the matchmaking is terribly unbalanced which in turn removes any desire to play.
We are really liking this game , its competitive but. It to much bc beginners ya know . It seems to be fair and friendly.
We love the game we recommend it to everyone.
Im obsessed. So easy to play and win giveaways.
We mean, its very fun and we used buy extras but its become so much of a money grab that theres no sense in buying anything.it regularly puts you into Rumble Matchs with much higher boosters your not yet eligible to obtain :(.
Its gets addicting after you play for a bit.
If we get top 1 then Ill get stuff.
Ive been playing for years. Fun and the right amount of difficulty.
The masters update is actually so bad. It's for the try hards who spend real money on a fake game. The new stuff makes no sense and they nerfed every single card making it so bad.
Lwk really good game for when Im bored. Easy but also challenging on the mind.
We like it but there still hasnt been 1 booster run! Im Starting to think its fake.
The matching with players could be a little better to be equally matched for gameplay not an SE player with a first level opponent. Otherwise its a fun game.
It is fun, unless you are paired against someone with a much higher level card. It is not uncommon to be paired against someone with either a much higher level or lower level card than you. It is especially frustrating earlier on in the game when you rarely get higher level cards. It really hampers the fun when your effort doesn't matter because the person you're against will win because they just have a better card than you.
Dear Match Masters Team, Im a long-time player of Match Masters, and after years of playing this game, we honestly have to say that this is the worst and most disappointing update Ive ever experienced. The nerfing of boosters, the reduction of events, the weakening of mini-games, and similar changes have not only removed the excitement but have also heavily damaged the overall gameplay experience. Forcing players to pay in order to use new features is neither logical nor enjoyable, and it certainly doesnt benefit the player community. At this point, there is very little motivation left to keep playing, and if this direction continues, we may be forced to uninstall the game. We truly hope Match Masters moves away from this overly monetized approach and brings back balance, excitement, and motivation to the game. Thank you for your time.
Fun game but the matches are predetermined. They purposely set you up to lose to what seems to be new players. Ive played the game almost 4 years. We refuse to spend anymore money on it, yet they continue to try and force that with leaving you no boosters or perks. Even with the gifts you can obtain through SM, its still not enough to enjoy the game when they have it programmed for your loss. This occurs more the further you progress with your level in the season. It would be much better if they would try to program it to be as random as possible if thats even possible with code. Youve been warned. Lol.
We've been playing for over 2 years. We spend money on the game weekly. We dont like that the lightning goes away even if you win the match. Its a total rip-off. We wont be purchasing lightning makes us want to play less than ever.
We loved this game until the new update we warn you it takes like 3 minutes per ad! It sucks probably wont be playing as much.
The game is cool but it takes forever to get the stickers and you hardly get good cards.
Special editions now suck. They took away the special out of it so you have to not only buy them, but now youll have to buy powerups as well so they are back to their original status! Greedy money hungry game owners! We will now use up our legendary and special edition items and will finally delete the game soon. Too bad they have to figure out any way to make you pay to make this game fun otherwise you cant compete for long without spending money.
So disappointed in this game now. We use to love playing this game. Been playing it for a couple years now. The new rework of the powers ups has completely neutered any of the strong power ups we paid for. We guess its finally time to move on as all good things come to an end. No longer enjoyable to play.
Why would you update the game and make it WORSE! Was a fun game until todays update . May have to delete the app at this point and find another daily game.
Since the update today high cards are nerfed and getting beat by purple and gold cards easily the game has became trash and Im not spending anymore money on this game.
Ive had this game for the past 2 years and we love it but anytime we make a purchase we end up in a match with someone whos time runs out in the match but yet they still can make moves and use their special ability? Anytime our time runs out we cant even move one piece because of the time running out. But they got extra time even tho it clearly has run out. What has happened over the years? This has happened to us for the past 3 months. We dont even want to make purchases anymore.
We have really enjoyed playing this game and can play for hours if we get lucky. We wish there matches would be more fair as far as the boosters. We think it would be more fair to be matched based on booster than trophies. Ive noticed if Im playing a lower value card, we always get matched with a 3 star booster, never fails. So of course Im going to loose every time. Same thing when we have a 3 star booster, Im matched with someone with a lower value booster & they dont stand a chance. We just hate that about the game. Yes its a skill based game, but at some point the booster is what really earns you the points. We think if you matched boosters in the lower value together you would have more of a chance. And the diamond boosters we think should be grouped together based on star, because a 1 star against a 3 star doesnt stand a chance. Also the legendary boosters should be in their own category, its impossible to win against one of them. Just our two cents, would love if this was a possibility.
Really get into this and cant stop playing.
Game is on a great path and platform.
Super easy fun game! For all ages. Im playing to get points on fetch.
We love this game so much we can play for hours. We wish it had no ads but other than that its fine. We love it so much. Its very addictive.
We feel like you shouldnt allow people using legendary and special edition boosters to play against people with basic boosters as well as some of the diamond boosters. Its just not fair. Its rare that a regular booster would ever beat a legendary booster- so not only do you lose the match but also lose your booster as well as deducted points?! Thats crazy work right there. Also when a technical difficulty occurs during a game/ loss of connection they usually will give you back your booster plus your perk but if you just so happen to be using a legendary booster and theres a loss of connection because of their servers dont count on them giving your booster back. We love match masters for the most part, its fun but its not fun losing everything you just paid for its almost like they purposely pair you with people that either have higher ranks or higher boosters. If youre going to allow all boosters to be matched then at-least let the person with the lower booster keep their booster after losing.
Do NOT spend your money! Early play they will give you 10 boosters for .99 cents and then start charging 1.99 for only 6 boosters once you get so far! Game also will give you only 1 diamond boosters constantly when getting the purple box for diamond boosters after the season ends instead of at least offering one 3 diamond boosters even after you can change them 3 times. Game also will intentionally make sure you lose your SE boosters or the ones right under also so you can pay more money! JUST WATCH THE ADS! Save your money for your kids or household. GREAT game but not worth spending money.
We love this game but it gets frustrating when your using the best booster and get beat by one that doesnt even compare due to the terrible board youre dealt. It seems set up to happen when youre about to reach a goal with prizes. One example is we used our wooly workout and was beat by the rubber duck???? So we tried using the rubber duck next round and our score didnt even come close to comparing to what the others had gotten. Theres obviously something extremely wrong with this game. Its fun until it isnt.
Have had and awesome time playing this game. Its great for travel or to just pass some time.
Ads start off at 110 seconds and then another 20 seconds and keeps going just to collect your free booster for the day.
We looked for a way to contact dev but dead ended at the FAQ. We are unable to load the game correctly since the last update.
We love this game but yall need to play fair we both should get the same a mount of spins it shouldnt be one gets more then the others it should be equal and quit cheating so much.
We hate this game because we love it too much and spend wayyy too much money on it. Ive never wasted our time playing games before this one- which we only discovered from a Freecash offer, so only played it to earn money but we got hooked. We will say though that theyre def raking in money, we read that they make 8million PER MONTH just off in- app purchases alone which wouldnt be THAT bad if they would just listen to their customers and actually do something about all the complaints but it seems they couldnt care less. Oh and customer service is pretty much awful- if you tell them the game froze or something didnt credit you correctly, they basically call you a liar and close the case. So other than their extremely low regard for the customer- the game itself is ridiculously fun and addictive.
Originally started to earn points for Fetch and now we cant put it down. Super fun and addicting, our ADHD brain is on overdrive.
Makes you lose so you can spend money, fun game, if u spend money.
We find yet another game we like and here you go making it harder to force people to spend money. Ridiculous, not to mention you keep creating new sticker books meanwhile we have so many we have yet to complete. It wont be long before we abandon this game as well. Thanks.
We sent three messages to the support team that the game is not loading that it freezes between 11 and 17 percent. When it does load, we play two or three games then it disconnects and we cant get it to load again. This has been going on for three days now. Ive been playing this game 4 years now. They seem like they dont understand what Im talking about or seem to have a fix for it. Frustrating but it seems like this is it for us if wont load.
We really enjoy playing this game.
Your game server is stuck and will not open, Ive tried resetting it, shutting down our phone and it will not work.
If this wasnt a game that we earn point on with Fetch, we definitely wouldnt play it.
We have a love-hate for this game!! Because we learned how to play the game, now we're being punished by onlybeinning so many and then losing. We don't pay our money to lose!!!! Let us be clear!! Stop determining his the game is played and won or lost. Ppl getting too comfortable with these boosters and don't know b how to play without em. Y'all can get mad as t this review, yet, u know its facts.
