Leave a Review Puzzlejuice
Another game ruined
Would have been great but even the earliest stages of gameplay thoroughly obstructed by distractions and ploys to subscribe a large amount to an unknown service. If given the option I would have bought the game outright. No way I’m paying to reward that kind of farce, though.Thirteenth Giraffe
Just disappointed
This was my favorite game, I’ve been playing since I was 13. This game got me through car rides, long lines at theme parks, doctors appointments, you name it.
Easily one of the best simple games I’ve ever played, I got a new phone and suddenly found out I had to subscribe to have this game from now on, and I simply will not pay the ridiculous amount every month to play one single puzzle game.
So, goodbye to the best game on the App Store tbh.
I would even pay one lump sum of $20 to play this game, but not a subscription. It’s just not worth it.Show less#1 puzzlejuice fan
Best game!
Tetris meets crosswords under time pressure. Multi language support = polyglot advantage! Could use some updates, e. g. LORAPuzzlejuicer
My #1 go-to game for years, until the paywall…
I loved this game for so many years and would have gladly paid an unreasonable sum upfront to have the game in its entirety on my phone. This pay to play bait and switch is an absolute turn-off. As another reviewer mentioned, I went from pouring praise for this game into anyone who asked what I was playing to harboring an intense spite for the developers. I similarly wish this wasn’t looped into some subscription model. Not everyone who wants to play one game wants access to whatever else you think might be related, I’m not signed up for Arcade for the same reasons and never will be. Unless it comes back as a solo app unattached to a sub service, it’s forever deleted from my phone and recommendations.Show lessElledesgner
Just put a price on the game. Not interested in a subscription service just to play this game.
Deceptive way of getting people to pay you $5 every month. Games kind of a mess too.Ed&M
Great game
Very addictive. Great game.candjwelldrilling
No way to just buy this ONE game.
You can’t even play with ads. Nothing. You HAVE to buy the subscription that’s $60 a year if you want to play this game. I love threes so when I found out the same people made a tetris/word search mashup, I was stoked. But I just want this one game. Not your subscription service. Just give us an option to buy the one game!Show lessMEGAPIE06
not free!!
i used to love this game and i remember paying for it a few years back on a different apple account. i recent thought of it and was pleased to find that it’s now free in the app store. i play the game for a moment and set it down, picking it up one second later only to find i had just closed out of my free trial and i would now have to subscribe to a game service to continue play. this is ridiculous as i don’t find myself playing games frequently enough to subscribe to a whole list of them. what a let down and waste of time. wish i could just play the game because it really is great.
developer there is no need to respond because i’ve already seen the copy and paste paragraph you’ve posted to other reviews and i don’t care one bit about the other games you have. clearly it’s not about that.Show lessTheMcRib

It sounds like you've bought this game in the past — Puzzlejuice is a game that doesn't automatically unlock for people that had it previously, but we're happy to restore your purchase if you email us at support@gameclub.ioRuined by Subscription Service
This is a fantastic inventive game. I would totally pay to buy this game for my phone.
Unfortunately, you can only play the game one and then it locks the game behind a $5/month subscription to some garbage “game service”. No apparent option to buy only Puzzlejuice. No “play it but see adds” (which is annoying, but I would have dealt with).
Again, this is incredibly unfortunate. I really enjoyed the ONE time I was allowed to play this game. I would have happily dropped $5 for this game once. But I’m not going to pay $5/month for a subscription service that is mostly full of what looks to be garbage to play one game.Show lessnHartz3592
It’s an advertisement, not a game
They let you play one match than you’re locked out until you subscribe, but you can watch ads for their game club until your eyes bleed.olorcain

Puzzlejuice is part of a larger game subscription service called GameClub — all-you-can-play access to a large library of curated games (including Puzzlejuice), with hundreds of hours of gameplay within the subscription. Though full access is only included with a subscription, we're committed to letting everyone "try before you buy" — to play enough to get a sense of the game free of charge, a "demo mode' if you will. We also offer a free trial (that you can cancel at any time) so you can play as many of the games in our library as much as you want before spending any money. Hope you take a look at our other titles to give them a try!
