Leave a Review Puzzlejuice
Virtually Unplayable (unless you pay)
I don’t normally write reviews, but this game was an unfortunate exception.
See, initially I was intrigued because I love word and matching games, so this seemed like a match made in Heaven! I saw this app recommended to me while playing Threes Freeplay and immediately tapped on it to learn more. However, after the first few minutes of playing, it became virtually unplayable because of the sheer lack of free-to-play options. Mostly everything is locked behind a paywall, and I do not understand zen mode at all.
This game, while advertised as free, is anything but that. I would’ve gladly payed a few dollars just to buy the game outright instead of being bombarded with subscription pop-ups and paywalled features. I’m very disappointed.
The only reason I’m giving this game 2 stars instead of 1 is because I enjoy the concept. Otherwise, this game is a hard pass, and I wish I could find a truly free-to-play alternative somewhere.
“We’re like the Netflix of puzzle games,” that phrase is more ironic than you think.Show lessOWO NEONOWTS
I used to live this game.
This was my favorite game, but recently I cannot access it anymore. I just keep getting the message that the server is down. This has been going on for weeks now.Amy SHP
Yikes
I’m so disappointed in these developers. This bait and switch is truly disgusting, y’all.JamboPipi
A game for the rich
I remember about 10 years ago this was my favourite game (still want to play it again nowadays). Now this game has been overmonetized so much that you can’t justify the costHusseinplayer
Used to be a 5 star game…I will NOT subscribe
I’d be delighted to pay $20 (one time) for this game and get no ads. Just keep it compatible with the newest software, and I’m in. It’s a brilliant game. But, heartbreaking as it may be, these developers keep pushing a subscription to the point that you CANNOT escape their loop of options of either “subscribe now”, or “not sure”.
I’ll never subscribe. I love original puzzle juice, and would pay for this game in its purest form, but don’t sell my data and don’t force a subscription. Terrible sell-out business model. So sad. Because the designers of the game itself did a beautiful job all around (mix of Tetris and a word search with links to dictionary when you pause. Beautiful concept. But sadly sold to soulless people whose only care is that you pay $4.99/month. It’s unplayable for more than a couple games without subscribing now.Show lesskikazie
Either the game is bugged, or you have to subscribe to play
They constantly push their subscription service as soon as you finish the tutorial. It seems like whenever you try and play after saying that you don’t want to subscribe, you can’t play any more games. You can sometimes get into a game, but any words that you try and spell don’t work.
Either they are forcing people to subscribe to play the game, or the game is broken and you can use a fundamental mechanic.Show lessDyl-dawg
I paid for this game & then it moved to sub
I paid for this in an earlier IOS. The version I bought doesn’t work anymore, and they moved to subscription. Garbage.mpsjp
Great game hidden behind pointless paywall.
I would buy this game outright if I could. Instead I am Deleting it and finding something similar without a lazy subscription service attached. Maybe I’ll just play more Threes instead.AquatarisPrime
Subscription? … Lame
Used to be cool.Girl farts
Very Sad
Puzzlejuice is one of the very coolest games ever. It scratches your brain in all the right ways. I’ll echo previous reviews, I would have happily paid for this game. One time purchase. Will never subscribe to a game subscription. Ever. You sold out, Puzzlejuice. The developer responses are canned and patronizing.Show lessFlippinflip
