Leave a Review Knock Balls!
Interesting Choice,,,
Ok, so I get updates to add new elements. But some of the choices made recently with this game baffle me. I see the pitch at the development meeting -
“Ok, so we replaced their bonus from extra balls to a machine gun at the last session, most people hated that one, so what do we do now?”
“I know! Let’s take back the cannons they’ve earned and make them earn the same cannons over again!” “
“Oh, and let’s add a bonus screen at the end of each round that always gives the same bonus and requires mindlessly firing balls at a chest with no variation in how it works! And make the bonus really small so each cannon takes like 50-60 games to earn!”
“Oh! I have one! Let’s make every round end with advertising! And to give more add space, let’s slap a banner add at the bottom of the screen so the players can’t see the bottom half of the cannons they worked so hard to buy! That will really make the cannons with detail at the bottom worthless!”
“But shouldn’t we be adding new targets and challenges to make the game more fun to play instead of taking things away and making the game play more repetitive?”
“What!?! Do you think we want to keep our players? You fool!”Show lessjake'sdad
Had promise...
I’ve been playing this game for about 8 months now, I remember when it didn’t even have sound. However, with each new evolution of the game it become a little less free, and a little worse. Not to mention, I had a one point unlocked 30 different cannons and now I have 5. This isn’t the first time this has happened, nor I doubt the last. It was once a fun time killer, if you’re looking for 2 days of interest before deleting this is your game. Long term, look elsewhere.Show lessDelightedPants
Great game.............. but
Great game but after the new update it’s seriously irritating. I’ve never needed diamonds before so the bonus round at the end of every set is absolutely 100% annoying. I paid to get rid of the adverts. If I could pay to get rid of this I would. And after the update I’ve lost cannons I already earned but now apparently need diamonds to purchase again. Is it possible for a refund as I’m not happy about the changes made?Show lessCockymotorsport
Going Downhill
So, I’ve been playing this game for at least a week now. It’s really not that bad. Yes, there are ads that come up after every level, but I play this game at work, and can skip through the ad after 5 seconds, so it’s not too bad. The reason I’m writing this review is because many of the cannons were removed in the most recent update and they called it “optimization.” Now I have to buy the cannons with Gems or whatever. They even took away the cool looking cannons, and now the selection of them isn’t that great. Pretty lame. It’s just disappointing when a game does that, but i should have known it was going to happen because it’s a “VooDoo” game and they are notorious for starting fun, then bringing a ton of ads in. That said, it’s probably time for me to find another game to play and maybe stay away from this developer.Show lessRaiderRocketM-15
Repetitive, excessive ads, no progression time waster
This was a 3-star level time waster as there was no progression or difficulty increase with successive stages, but it was fun enough due to the bonus shots that let you shoot two at a time. Getting the bonus shots made you focus because your bonus amount depended on how many extra shots you had on the previous stage. There were ads, sure, but it would be a here and there kind of thing. But, getting those bonuses made this game worthwhile as it was fun seeing the blocks all fly a way so easily.
With the recent update, they got rid of the bonus shots and now there’s an ad after every, repeat, every stage completion, which is becoming an unfortunate trend lately. The lesser amount of ads separated this game from the other, overly simple games like it. But, now as it joins that group of ad-heavy games, it also now joins my deleted games list with a 1-star review. Definitely not worth any money to get rid of ads. Also, some of these other reviews seem to utter unrelated nonsense, one even seems to have copied a songs full lyrics, and they all are giving 5 stars...strange. Very few 4+ stars reference any aspect of the game...Show lessjayejhay
Bait & Switch
What is it called when somebody makes you a false promise? Like they lead you in with one thing, and then they sell you something different? BAIT & SWITCH?!?... Ya, that’s it. (Don’t believe the 4.6 rating either. Somehow, they have manipulated their consumer ratings...) The advertisement for this game was super fun. Then the game gives me immediately a level with an easy 1st Stage but an incredibly difficult third stage. So that I am forced to watch like 100 hours before I can play a different stage. There’s WAY too many ads and WAY too little game... and then they want you to download 10 more games in the first 5 minutes of playing. it’s like I would end up with 100 games on my freaking device in just a half hours play time. Really you guys... get freaking reasonable about your process!Show lessWelcomeHomeSW
Repetitive
I can’t believe how high the ratings are for this game. How is no one talking about how every single level is the exact same?!? I don’t understand how there is the concept of advancing a level in this game when the difficulty level is the same and they repeat block structures every time.
Honestly played this a few rounds and just got completely bored as there was no variation and the ads were incessant. Uninstalling.Show lesslqp234
Sick of being pestered for data
This is a reasonably good game, although very repetitive, the levels hardly vary at all. Still, it whiled away a bit of spare time, and I was happy to pay to remove ads. What I’m really NOT HAPPY about though is CONSTANTLY being hassled to allow data sharing. I’ve said “no” and that should be the end. But every time I open the game I have to go through several pages to re-enter my no-share choice and I’ve had enough now. I’m uninstalling and will avoid this company in future.Show lesssaba3552
Why the rapid fire?
So this game is stupidly simple. Just aim balls and knock all the blocks off before the balls run out. It’s nice when I need a quick break from work or just need to do something for a couple minutes. However, they changed it where you have a rapid fire cannon instead of rolling over any extra balls and I think that takes away from the charm of the game. Some of the block formations are a little challenging (but doable) and having a couple extra balls at the beginning (two would launch until the extras ran out) was helpful but not now. I honestly hope you switch it back.Show lessleshacole
Not bad
I vote 2 because it is a little boring maybe add something and make the boss towers more hard to defeat,but pretty good I think it needs just a little worklulubellrose
