1. ★★★★★ Lose The Hints MugWorts · 8 Sep 2026
   I like the game but I hate how it flashes the three matching tiles if you don't find them yourself quickly enough. I'm not playing the game to be in a rush, I want it to be relaxing. I also can't stand the clapping hands when choosing sets of 3. Now I have to anticipate it happening, and I feel that unless there is a way to disable these hinting feature I will have to unload the game. I also haven't been able to contact chat to remedy anything. Disappointing all around. Update: I had to delete the app. The clapping hands drove me crazy. I reinstated the app to see if it had gotten any bette

   r. Now there's even more interference in the game with spaceships helping put tiles in place. I don't need or want hints. It's extremely annoying and there's no option to turn off hints. I just want to choose the tiles myself with no help. Guess I'll delete again and try to look for another game with no interference. Update: now there are swaying eggs trying to get you to choose those and I hate it. Since developer isn't listening I'm permanently deleting. There should be a way to switch the hints off just like you can switch off music, vibration, etc.🫤

2. ★☆☆☆☆ Started my heart racing! DawnMarie54 · 21 Jun 2026
   These ads are out of control! #1 they are LOUD! They also override my device settings; my volume was off and this ad after completing a game was incredibly LOUD! It startled me! I was even expecting & waited for the ad but it took a millisecond or so & some guy just about blew my speaker! #2 Ads busting in the middle of a move?!?! What is that? Again, extremely LOUD! And this time my heart reacted with palpitations and A-Fib acting up! Took over an hour for my palpitations to stop!!!! I’m not going to go on and about everything else bcuz I don’t think I should have to! You allow for dangerous

   ads makes you fully liable & accountable! Also, any app that allows ads to override someone’s personal settings on their device or allows for ads to bust into the game as your playing is enough for me to believe that this is very dangerous to my health, personal info, and my device!!! DELETING APP!! <Do not remove or alter this review!!! I also made a screenshot video of the posting of this review, just FYI! Idk y I feel like I have to protect myself but I am!>

   We are deeply sorry about this alarming experience, especially the impact on your health. This is completely unacceptable. Unfortunately, muting in-game sound does not control third-party ad audio, but ads interrupting mid-game and overriding device volume settings should not be happening. We take this very seriously and will relay your feedback to our team immediately. If you're willing, please report the specific ads through our in-app customer service (Settings → Help Center) with any details or screenshots so we can identify and block them. We sincerely hope you are feeling better, and we apologize for the distress caused.
3. ★★★★☆ 3d tile maching merline kiambu · 21 May 2026
   I love this game because it’s like a puzzle that you can like match stuff and I give it a four because it’s went off. I gave it a 10 I mean a 45 because I mean five because it’s kinda hard to do it because like it’s a bunch and you like. And you have to use your brain like cherry cherry cherry three times. Of ways to lose one if you fill up the whole base which is like the upper top of it and yeah, and the second thing you could lose is you? Is when you do a wrong match and I like how it says that 50% people can’t beat us and I beat it like so easy. And can you please make the game like easier

   more

   because I’m just on level eight and it’s kinda hard. So when we get to the 25 like level 25 you should make it like a hard or harder like really hard really really really really hard. So yeah, this is a review and I give it a four from all I said.
   Developer reply · 28 May 2026

   Thank you for the detailed review. We’re glad you’re enjoying the core matching/puzzle gameplay. We also understand your point about difficulty—if it already feels too hard around the early levels, that can be discouraging. We’ll share your feedback with the team to review the early‑game difficulty and make the progression feel smoother, with harder challenges appearing later on. Thanks for playing!
4. ★★★★☆ Fun Game, and You Control Your Ad Frequency 1quiltwench · 13 Mar 2026
   At first glance this game seems overly easy, but with stacked layers of tiles the challenge level increases — some stacks are quite sneaky because tiles can be “hidden”below the top one, adding to the overall level of challenge when your number of moves are limited. I love that this is a fun game to keep your mind and hands busy, especially in the evenings, but no deep thinking required after a long day. There are also themed games and mini games, plus league tournaments, to keep things interesting. Throughout the games you can opt to watch ads to increase the number of coins available to y

   more

   ou if you begin to run low, ditto for adding helps such as undoing your last move, and each new day you also have the choice of watching a few short ads to add several hundred coins to your bank. If you want to skip this you totally can because the ads are completely optional. You can also choose to purchase game packages any time at a very reasonable price for instant gratification. What could the game developer do to improve the playing experience? While the league tournaments and levels are fun, regardless of your achievements and being promoted to a new tier, all completion rewards are the same, so what’s the point? Bigger rewards that are incrementally larger in keeping with your advancing levels would be so much more fun, and provide more incentive to play. Whaddaya say, game developer?? Bottom line, I really like this game and the ability to play it without spending a small fortune.
   Developer reply · 19 Mar 2026

   We truly appreciate your thoughtful feedback and are happy to know you enjoy the variety of modes and the flexibility around optional ads. Your suggestion about scaling rewards with higher tiers and achievements is valuable, and we’ll share it with our development team for consideration in future updates.
5. ★★★★★ Updated Mattopoo · 3 Mar 2026
   Received very kind developer feedback. While only a FEW ads were glitchy to click out of, they said they would look into it. Super addicting games. I used to enjoy the jungle challenge and will still participate, but I do not agree with the developers explanation that you play against real challengers. At first, it may seem that way, but the algorithm clearly shows it is bots you play. Perhaps though this is best since it is not difficult to get into the top 10 regularly? What makes it discouraging is that when you try to get to the top three. The reason is because the players there that have

   been dormant, all sudden suddenly start playing with the exact moment. In real life, it is not possible for this to happen each time and every time. Either way, great game! ONE SUGGESTION - when you fail a level, it would be nice to try that exact same level again and learn from your mistakes. Makes me wonder if the level was actually solvable or not lol.
   Developer reply · 25 Feb 2026

   Thank you for sharing your detailed thoughts. We’d like to assure you that in challenges and competitions, you are matched with real players—not bots.

6. ★★★★★ 😫 2jaz · 3 Feb 2026
   I gave it five stars because the game is quite challenging. I really enjoyed this game. I like the challenge. It was new, but I could no longer take the ads after every level. I’m not sure I understood the review that says if you play smart, there won’t be an ads🤔🤔🤔 It is a really good challenging game, but the game I now have I’ll stick to that because it does not require ads after each level or each move. On a break in between moves there goes a ad the ads just way too many!!! ads way too many ads otherwise thank you for the idea of this game. Maybe I’ll check back later and see if thi

   ngs got better overtime where there are not as many ads or none at all without you having to pay for no ads either.
   Developer reply · 5 Feb 2026

   Thank you for your kind words about the game’s challenge and concept. We’re sorry that the frequency of ads — especially after every level or between moves — has affected your enjoyment. Ads help us keep the game free, but we understand they can feel disruptive, and we’re reviewing both their frequency and placement to make the experience smoother. We appreciate your feedback and hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back if you decide to check in again in the future.
7. ★★★★☆ Good game- turn off the announcer in settings. Eilla_Doodles · 22 Jan 2026
   Five levels in, it said that beating the level meant I passed 98% of players. I was baffled thinking of the implications of this. 98% of people decided to not play past level 5…? Yes, the announcer was annoying, but I turned that off in the settings, and the game was otherwise well made, if a bit easy. But then I realized- this game is just lying. At the start of levels, it just. Makes up statistics. I think it’s trying to make the player feel more confident in themselves. The gameplay itself is fine. It starts way too easy- aimed towards kids if I had to guess. It automatically suggests mov

   more

   es you can make, which is annoying. It does get more difficult, and while I can’t say if it gets impossible in later levels, it seems at least somewhat fair so far. The majority of ads you’ll seen is banner ads and completely optional ones for extra gold, but it does play some once you beat a level after the first 20 or so levels. Levels are long enough this doesn’t feel that interruptive however, and airplane mode removes all ads entirely. But I just feel… demeaned. These fake numbers are only taking away from the gameplay. I’d give it five stars if not for that.

   Thank you for sharing such a detailed review. We’re glad to hear you’ve enjoyed much of the gameplay and found it generally well‑made, but we’re sorry that the presentation of level statistics has left you feeling misled or demeaned. Your feedback about the accuracy of these messages and the impact they have on player experience has been passed to our product team for review. We understand that players value transparency and want their accomplishments to be represented authentically. We’ll look into how these features can be adjusted or clarified so they add to — rather than detract from — the enjoyment of the game.
8. ★★☆☆☆ So MANY ADS!!! Muhsketchy · 17 Jan 2026
   I was totally enjoying this match three game, EXCEPT for ALL THE ADS. After you play ONE ROUND, whether it takes you 30 seconds or 2 minutes, you will be ‘treated’ to yet ANOTHER REPETITIVE AD! Buy a clue developer(s), if someone has NOT purchased your game, or any of the SIX or SEVEN being advertised on your game in rotation, odds are REALLY GOOD they will NOT be purchasing ANY of the OTHER ‘FREE GAMES’!! This game is your typical match three game with the spin being that, rather than a picture on the title, the tile has a question mark on the front. Please let me be clear, I DON’T have

   more

   a problem with any of the game play, it’s the SHEER VOLUME of ads which is driving me to delete the app from my iPad. I’m getting just a bit old to waste my available time, on this earth, giving up 90 seconds or 120 seconds to let ads play out after every single round of the game! And developer(s) just so you know, I DO NOT sit and watch your force fed ads, once an ad begins I simply put down my iPad and pick up my Kindle. Okay, there’s a whole in my ‘solution’ to the ad problem…if that book is interesting enough to grab my attention, I sometimes don’t get back to ANY ANNOYING GAME for at least a day or two. Yeah, the games are ‘free’ but my time is valuable so yall need to stop wasting it! Here’s a thought, you can add another offer to the game ‘store’. After say, the first 20 rounds, give players the option of buying the game, for a REASONABLE PRICE, but if they are not interested then you can go back to wasting folks’ time. Thanks for reading folks, have a blessed day!

   We’re glad to hear you’ve enjoyed the core gameplay, and we’re sorry that the frequency and length of ads have taken away from your experience. Ads help us keep the game free and support ongoing improvements, but we understand that too many can become frustrating and take up valuable time. Your suggestion to offer a reasonably priced, one‑time purchase option after a set number of rounds is a great idea, and we’ll share it with our team for consideration. Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback, and we hope we can find a better balance that keeps the game enjoyable for you.
9. ★☆☆☆☆ The Amount Of Ads Is Ridiculous. Plus Other Problems. Ruberjon · 10 Jul 2025
   I'm not wholly against ads, in some free games. If the developer is fully honest and upfront about it, and the ads aren't overwhelming, I'll often accept it for what it is, and keep playing. But in this case, I can no longer deal with the total onslaught of the advertising framework, as set up by the developer. Not only multiple ads, but multiple ads after each quick game. Plus, the ads are such, that the layout often makes it hard to see, and/or get to, the exit areas. In addition, I've seen no option for disabling the Hints. It's extremely frustrating, to put the game device down for

   more

   a moment, to attend to something, for example, and then to look at the screen, finding that Hints are in place, with their pulsating tiles. This totally ruins both the relaxation aspect of the game, as well as the game challenge, itself. There are other issues, but, suffice to say, I'm deleting this game.

   We feel sorry to bring you such a poor experience. As you may know, advertising is the most crucial source of revenue for free-to-play games, which supports us in continuously improving the game's overall quality and providing you with a better experience. However, we have started to adjust the number and length of the ads to bother you the least.
10. ★★★★★ Change Mmnnbbvvccffgghhjjkk · 16 Apr 2025
    I loved this game since loading it this past summer. Currently at4,953 games played. I am sharing that i will not continue to play unless there is a option to turn off the animation that was added a few days ago. When i tap on the screen at a tiles original location but it is gone or worse something else is now in that location is too frustrating for me to continue enjoying and playing this game. Please provide option in settings to NOT have the animation.**update** back to 5 star😀 thank you for removing the animation. Please note that if you pay for the remove of ads, they are completely re
