Great Gameplay, Annoying Pop-Ups: A Balanced Review
I’ve seen a lot of ads for this game, and for a long time, I ignored them. It wasn’t until my brother invited me to try it that I decided to give it a shot and I’ve loved it ever since. I’ve played and progressed much further than him, and I’ve only spent a minimal amount of money, maybe less than $10.
Like any gambling-style game, there’s a luck element involved, but there’s also a methodical side to it. Success depends on choosing the right moments to use your spins, multipliers, and pets to maximize your rewards. I disagree with those who say you have to spend a lot of money to make meaningful progress.
That said, my one and only critique—something that really bothers me—is how you’re bombarded with 4+ pop-up windows when you run out of spins. These windows push you to invite friends, request spins, make purchases, and so on. It’s very annoying to close them every single time, especially when I’ve already planned how to get more spins.

Coin master
Coin master needs to give a more incentive to keep players I’ve spent billions of coins trying to get the gold card and it’s get pretty tiresome I’m starting to lose interest in the game like allot of others great game and really enjoy playing The downside is to do the missions you have to be careful and discipline yourself or it will burn a hole in your pocket, they put allot of temptation in your way It gets much harder to achieve goals and get the cards you need get harder the more villages you complete Join a good group as soon as you can to this is must and playing as a team is much more fun if everyone is contributing towards castle and chest It’s very addictive but really is a very good game Don’t bid to high either your spins will soon go Look at building them up not going back down to no spins example It the money line says 3k and you only have say 150 spins you are not going to get that 3k unless you get extremely luck Always double the amount you need to comfortably get the 3k and wait until there extre at the side of the 3k When buying cards with your coins wait for the offers Same with build you get 20% of with the hammer and make sure you have enough coins to upgrade your village and complete or it will get trashed by other players attacking you Good luck and keep ur money in your bank unless you can afford to spend a little

Biggest scam don’t buy a thing
Every aspect of this game is a scam and is controlled by the developers I’ve wasted money thinking it will be different but you deadset get the same thing no matter what, I’ve complained to the developers over this and have told AppStore about this game as i was charged for many gifts and received half of them as it kept saying no connection, while I had full bars of wifi even after switching to data they kept me out of the game until the boosters ran out that would’ve helped me gain the coins and prizes I needed so don’t waste your money at all, play it for fun but never spend a dime because it’s all controlled by the developers and they should be ashamed as I asked for a refund and they lied to me saying Apple has to accept it but when I called Apple they said it’s all upto the developers so don’t waste your money and play a different game.

Coin master
I apsultly love this game. One good thing is it has stopped my gambling habit. Not that I was addicted to gambling. But compared to this game I’ve spent way less. Only thing I’m confused about is I don’t get any benefits from social media. I’m doing everything that it tells me to do. But no luck if anything it’s becoming a headache. Just sending me to all these different sites and surveys. Five stars for the actual game. Cheers.💯👌🏻

Actual feedback
So I’ve been playing a few weeks now and this game gives a good amount of free spins outside of the slots mechanic, however I’ve noticed winning free spins in the actual slots portion is like a 1% occurrence, I had over 30,000 spins and hit the free spins on the slots a grand total of 3 times, granted it was at 50x the slot amount but still do the math and those probabilities do not give players replay ability unless they spend a stupid amount of money, and one more actual game mechanic that absolutely needs adjustment, the randomness of the card pulls, I’m about to blow your freaking mind at how awful the percentage of pulling a card you need is, I had 50 billion coins saved up and I pulled 5 new cards, no joke, I pulled 5 new cards, I spent 10billion per card, no that is absurdity to the most extreme, once again do the math that’s less than a 1% chance to pull a card you need, developers you have a good game but only good, it could be great if you fixed the percentages for getting cards and furthermore if sets are complete then don’t pull those cards, it would give more incentive to keep building villages, please actually fix this and don’t just leave this in the void of non fixed issues, thank you very much for your time but just being focused on the money aspect of a game does not make a great game, the further you get the more you are waiting and having to spend money to proceed,

Fun game
I have been playing CM for several years now. I’ve always loved the game. But once you get to a certain level, you have to build several villages to unlock single cards in card sets. It’s costing close to 6 trillion to build an entire village and that takes forever. If you do the quests it takes all your coins and leaves you stuck on a village for sometimes months. But the only way to get spins is to finish the quests or buy spins, thus leading to being unable to build villages. Once you complete all the card sets it takes forever to build and unlock more sets. The seasonal sets are almost impossible to finish because of the lack of spins. Sometimes you get lucky and somehow get enough spins in the side games (dragon castle and keys and such) to be able to get more spins. I love the game, I truly do, but building a village costs too much once you get up into the 300s like I am. I love the team castle and team chests and stuff. Those are great. I’m on an amazing team that works together to achieve the highest rewards possible. I just wish it was easier to build a village and I wish there was more card sets to finish and get more spins. I’ve spent TOO MUCH money trying to advance levels and u lock card sets and I just refuse to spend anymore money unless it’s a REALLY good deal, like the $1.99 deal I got last night on the new rewards thing. I’ll never stop playing CM I just wish it was easier to advance than it is. ❤️

Great game however
What I’ve discovered since changing to a iPhone, is that apparently my established team (that is hoping I will get back to them as I am the leader) can’t be found. Starting as a guest as meta also removed my facebook page ( thanks for the data leak information). I don’t even know how long I was playing coin master. But it was many many years. So really disappointing that apparently, my account for this game is gone. Also only iPhone users see these reviews and google play users see the other reviews. Interesting.

Friend requests and pop ups
I love the game, I got hooked after one of my friends invited me to play so she can get rewards. I was doing the same to others but after like 6 invites and rewards, the invitation stopped working or they couldn’t accept my request or like something like that. It’s kind of annoying when I do that with my friends and it’s kind of like for nothing. Like my friend requests didn’t go through for my friend so I made her friend request me back and I think that wasn’t qualified as part of the rewards thing which is kinda mean and I think it’s being done on purpose because this isn’t the only time it’s happened. Another thing is the pop ups where like it asks you to spend money to get the awards and then the next few rewards are free or when it asks if you want to pay for more spins or invite friends. That got real annoying real fast and it’s featured on the side so I know it’s there and don’t need it in my face every time I run out of spins.

UPDATE in response to developer’s response:
WHY must you have 10 different promotions going on at the exact same time? If you offered less more appealing promotions, people might actually pay attention to them and possibly buy when they wouldn’t have before. They are TOO much! I joined this game as part of a points earning promotion, and greatly enjoyed it in the beginning. But I am now uninstalling it because closing 10 pop up windows every time I do one action is not only bitterly annoying, it’s a profound waste of time. If you read all of the reviews, you’d find many of your customers say the exact same thing.
I enjoy playing this game. It’s fun and easy to pick up and play when I have time. However, the fact that, after almost every action, a pop-up appears either wanting you to purchase this bundle or that bundle…and there will be 6 different price level “special offers” running at the exact same time, with little icons running down both sides of the screen, gets really annoying! There are areas set up as store, achievements, cards, etc. you can access whenever you need, but then there will be NUMEROUS other things running all the same time that pop up CONSTANTLY! If you ever run out of spins, EVERY BUNDLE/OFFER pops up back to back to back….It’s so annoying I’ll finally just put the game down. Please fix this!

So grateful for this game!
I have a lot of chronic illnesses that can leave me basically bed bound, and one thing I love about this game is that there is ALWAYS something new and exciting to do!! Every single day there is something new to look forward to and work towards to get all kinds of amazing in-game prizes that can keep me busy for hours, helping to distract and entertain me when I need it most. The tournaments are awesome, I feel like everyone gets a chance. The card sets you can complete for prizes is a pretty neat feature, and the ability to send extra cards to players in need of them is something I enjoy. I’ve even become part of some awesome Coin Master groups online which has been great for meeting new friends to help a long the way, so it’s a good game for bringing people together as well and be a part of team and a community. I love that there are in-game teams. Not only is it fun to play with others, working together as a team to complete goals and support each other is a feature I don’t see in a lot of games so I appreciate that. Coin master posts free spins and giveaways pretty much every day on their social medias which means they like to support their users which is nice. You can also spend real money in-game for extra rewards, prizes and things if you’d like but it’s not one of those games where the only way you can advance is to spend money either. I’d definitely recommend this game to people of all ages!
