Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Used to love this game but now we can not play this game app as IOS is not supported Please update thanks.
This is a lot of fun for .99$. We just started playing a few minutes ago, but it seems like it's gonna be a mind eraser.
The timer going back and forth to smash the correct pots heightens the experience. Its harder than it looks.
Really fun pot smashing experience that we recommend for stress relief and learning for little ones.
Excellent to release tension and stress.
Like the different games. Worth .99 for the extra versions.
We like this a lot. The zen game is great for killing time. No glitches. Love.
This app is really fun! We love the new learning games.
Smashing these pretty pots makes just the right amount of noise and mess, and the games have just the right amount of difficulty. Our favorite part is the automatically adjusting speed of the endless zen smash.
Great game,very addicting,love the different game modes to play.
This game is such a great stress relief.
We love this game. There are several different modes of play, so you can just smash endlessly if you are stressed-out, or you can pass time with the other levels if you want to do something slightly more brain-like while you destroy things. We're not a huge iPhone gaming fan, tending to spend more time on "productive" apps, but this game is a must when we feel the need to break things. Smashy smashy.
This is a great stress reliever and there's no mess to clean up. :).
After the recent update (4/4/12) this game is back to 5 stars!!! Thank you so much for fixing this!!!! —————————————————————————- Used to love this game! Even purchased the continuing levels. Now when we launch it we get a fourth of the game blown up really big on our screen and it won't do a darn thing! Playing on a "new iPad" if it makes a difference. PLEASE fix this.
We didn't think we'd care much for this game, but it's actually really fun! We like that it makes you think on your feet. Good times.
Then y in game center does it say never played. Fix this and it would be 5 stars.
This is the best collection of mini-games we've seen on the iPhone. Love it.
Loving it. This game is deceptively addicting.
This game is so much fun we love smash typing.
This is addicting. We love you that have choices of games …well worth the extra 99 cents… But our finger hurts from smashing so much.
Very fun with tons of different styles to play with simple an easy to learn.
Fantastic game. Keeps you on your toes, as the challenge never ends.
We love this game. We really wish u could make more levels. Even so we still Love it.
Please add option to enable "kids mode" (without timer).
We love all the different levels and its fun for adult as well as the kids.
First game we found where our hubby cannot beat our highest score :).
It seems so simple, and we can get a good score, but we cannot stop thinking "we can get a higher score than that!".
We love this original game for its simplicity, but we can play many different ways – so we don't get bored. Adults and kids alike will enjoy it.
Great fun for such a simple game. We love the typing level.
Really enjoy the pick-up-and-play simplicity.
This game is a lot of fun, but also makes you think. You can test out you dexterity, math abilities, and word generation. Good Braun exercises that is also fun.
A whole lot of fun, and a tad bit addicting. :).
We do like the zen smash. Works when we are stressed.
Easy, great interface, with a handful of sub games with different tasks is really great!! However it needs a larger word database, as some words we put in are not accepted but the game. It would also be really great if we would have to select to have a hint when a person gets stuck as opposed to having it given to us when we do not want it. We really like what you have done with this app.
Fun game. Got it free though so we don't know if it'd be worth .99 cents.
Gets boring after a while but fun at first.
Love this app! Bought it for our son (fourth grader learning to keyboard) , but we find ourselves playing it almost every day! It's actually helping us type faster, too.
Graphic is medium and simple game play.
Fun but really easy needs an update.
BUGS BUGS BUGS on the typing mode if you type the wrong letter it says you are correct But other then that it's great.
Cant play on the new ipad. Its too zoomed in. For example. When it opens on the main screen page where you have to smash PLAY you cant even see the while plate displaying the word play. FIX BUGS PLEASE. Its awesome on our phone though.
We bought this app because we thought there wasca relaxed mode. We enjoy taking our time to find matches. In addition, this app gives hints w/o our requesting a hint. If we want a hint, we want to have the feature that we can request a hint, instead of being given an unwanted hint.
Works great on our iPad 1 but not on our iPad 3. On the 3 it is super enlarged so only a small portion of the game area is visible. Don't have this issue with other games. We've deleted the game 3 times & reinstalled with no change. Any advice.
Not loading from the home options screen.
We got the app and couldn't use it! Not even one single time. What an app! Don't spend any money on this app.
You can only play a few levels and then your required to make an in app purchase. We can understand giving more levels at an added cost to the user but just a few short boards really? We wouldn't spend money on this. It was a great game till we felt ripped off.
Erroring out which is a shame as we'd love to play.
Only the zen one works, as the other mode says error. And the zen mode is so stupid. You just click the screen to smash the pots and you don't get scored or anything… Total waste of time… Deleted :).
What the description does not tell you is that you have to actually pay money to unlock most of the game modes, Including the word games. It is irritating that the game is advertised as free, when in reality, it is not.
We loaded the game, but every time we tap on it, an error message pops up. Strangely, we can play zen mode with no issues. Too bad that's all we could play.
