Bombards with offers for real money purchases and impossible to play otherwise
My autistic son is absolutely hooked on this game but it constantly advertises real money purchases for boosters which are basically impossible to get without paying. He says the game is pretty much impossible to play with basic boosters (which I can confirm) and the app suggests you buy certain boosters with are the only ones that can be used on certain games
He is extremely intelligent so he has found numerous ways to bypass parental controls and purchase boosters. there is no way to block purchases or impose spending limits like other apps so I have had over £900 taken from my limited finances for this game in 2024 alone.
I have contacted Apple about this and they refuse to refund the money, block all purchases or prevent the download of this app.
Also the advertised boosters have rapidly increased in price, I previously allowed him to purchase a few items advertised at between £1.59 - £3.99, however most of the advertised boosters etc. he is offered now are always over £10 so it seems the app is aware he is willing to spend the money so they keep offering higher priced ‘offers’
PLEASE ADD A SPEND CAP OPTION TO YOUR NEXT UPDATE I get the app wants to earn as much money as possible but even gambling websites have controls in place so there is a reduced risk of financial hardship resulting from the offer and sales in their apps

Used to be good game
So at first and for awhile the game was awesome! I couldn’t put it down, playing it at work any 30 seconds i had id be on it. But it seems like recently things changed. The only stickers you get are constantly duplicates. Or if you do get a new sticker it’s for a new album. I have 15 albums with one or couple of them have 2-3 stickers missing to complete the album. Never can get those. I even put $ into it buying the sticker packages and every single one of them are duplicates! Was pretty upset about that. Then you can go trade stickers with others, but the problem there is hardly anyone has the same albums! It’s like they purposely give executive everyone different albums so there can’t be any trading. Been trying to trade for 8 months and have yet to find one person i can trade with, end up just giving away the stickers to others that happen to luckily find someone with the sticker they need. So idk if you’re just downloading the game you’ll get about 2-3 months of good solid fun gaming, but don’t expect it any longer after that!

Game ruined
They just proved you play against bots. The player now needs to get 7 blue (in reality 9) to the “bots” 6 red. Makes the stupid game even harder. Most of the time, no blues to get. They’ve also started with 5 rounds as opposed to 4. Why in gods name would they ruin what was an okay game. I persevered with this “Rigged” game for a long time because it was enjoyable at least. But now they just simply ruined it. I was even buying a starter pack for 89p. But not anymore with the current set up. ! Also. The same guy making the same comments right at the top as usual, and after all this time,(Lunar storm79) I also have won many games, 50 non stop from the beginning and 730 high score with the screen shots to show. (On Facebook) but do you idiot developers take us all for mugs? Yeah, definitely not rigged eh?? Get a life !!! DELETED…!!!!! Wow. Developers. It seems your answers are standard across the board. You don’t even attempt to answer any question or complaints from me or anyone else. So said before. You’ve ruined the game totally. It’s now unplayable. Update after developer reply. Hey developers, here’s a crazy idea, why don’t you read what people say before you reply. A standard reply just shows you couldn’t give a toss. Either that or you really are ignorant idiots. Try putting the game back to how it was instead of ruining it.

Hello Kylesinclair2007, We're sorry to hear that this is how you feel regarding the recent updates. Please take into consideration that some low tier boosters only require 6 pieces to recharge, which is shown on the bar while you play. You're a valued user. Please reach out to our support team if there are any concerns you'd like to clarify.
Too Hard and it’s becoming boring and uninteresting
The game is really fun to play when you’re in the lower ranking, but when you’re progressing toward higher ranking it’s becoming ridiculously hard (I know you get to unlock many stronger boosters but you lose them easily as well) to a point where it has become uninteresting. Especially the solo challenge (heist, score rally etc.), they are mostly unbeatable and require an insane amount of luck and good RNG, you just keep losing your booster every round and eventually you ran out of every resource you have (money and boosters), so you had to spend money to buy in-game purchases in order to continue playing. I understand the developer wanted to create a competitive environment in the higher ranking and that’s why they made it difficult, but the game lose its colors when you almost always can’t win any challenge. I hope the developer can hear us players and make some changes!

Good concept but unbelievably luck-based
I have been playing this game daily for almost 4 months now, and I haven’t spent a single penny on it. I really do like the design of the game, but some matches are unbearable to play. I only use my best boosters when I have more than 1 of them or have a booster shield. Today, I’ve played 3 games with my best booster and my opponents have had significantly worse boosters, and I’ve lost all 3 (all 3 of my booster shields lost). Within these games, whilst I plead for even a singular extra move a game, my opponent yield numerous extra moves, per turn. Furthermore, although using the perk which grants additional stars, I managed to activate my booster twice throughout the whole game. Meanwhile, my opponents respective stars fall from the top and perfectly descend into position, granting the utilisation of his booster. It’s just ridiculous, and too unlucky to just be misfortune.

Unfair advantage
It’s been fun to play, and I love the changes where you and your opponent have separate boards. What is pretty disappointing is that you are often matched against someone with a much stronger or weaker booster, which creates a very unfair advantage to you or your opponent and creates a frustrating user experience. It would be great to only be battling others with boosters in the same category ie diamond, silver, ect. Fix that and I’ll definitely be less likely to get over playing this game

Quit fun but there are a few things that annoy me
I love the visuals of the game and find it to be a really great pass time. Also the concept of the game is a really cool idea. However there are a few thing that annoy me. For instance, the game is mostly based on luck instead of how good you actually are at the game so most of the time you just have to hope that the game is on your side. Also, I get the whole thing where when you loose a game you also loose a the booster but what I really have a problem with is that when you give up or disconnect during a game you lose a booster also. I can count so many times where I was in a game and I had to leave or I disconnected and ended up loosening a really powerful booster because of it. There are a lot of good things that are really cool about the game so I will keep it but I do hope it gets less frustrating over time.

Why bother
You put so much time and effort into the game and yes I am someone who has put money into this been part of the masters club not worth it if you gonna play play for fun don’t waste your time getting invested lost so many competition tournaments solos games booster and when you prove the game has crashed, lagged and plain old you stop working the way you want it to and you head to customer support you hardly if ever get your boosters not worth getting overly invested in it was a great game and I couldn’t put down now I’m lucky if I pick it up at all, this game is even more ridiculous takes loads of money of me then refuses to make it right the support staff do no help you get fobbed of and they never actually help you get 5 different people message you back but no actually help game is a joke customer support may as well not exist - update I feel nothing has changed with this game customer support lay of the issue or claim it cannot be proved and issues seem to be left to ruin your game experience the match making on this game does not work, the price of the deals are unacceptable changing day to day and sometimes very overpriced. I though time would prove my previous statement wrong however i feel it has not

Pretty fun but gets harder
It’s a relatively simple and fun game to play where matches are a few min long so you can play while on the toilet or at work lol. One thing that it’s missing is descriptions for each of the boosters. As a newbie who just installed the game, there is nothing to explain how each of the boosters work, you just kinda have to select them and figure out what they do during the game. Not cool. Also, some games are really well balanced and it’s a challenge, but other times, games are SUPER UNBALANCED and I am either winning by a huge margin, or LOSING by a huge margin! How can that be? I’m certain some of the “players” i get matched up with are in fact bots as they make weird moves that are so calculated that it brings them huge amounts of points on their turn. No way a human would know to swipe exactly there which then brings a whole load of extra moves and points, when there is a more obvious move. But in general I’m enjoying the game for now. Just be warned that you might find yourself losing by huge margins and still having to finish the game -.-
