  • Gets the synapses firing! Love it.

    Flow Free is a little easy for the first several levels, or at least I found it so. Around level seven, it gets very interesting and challenging. Even if you find the first several levels a little too easy, keep going! By the time you get to 7x7 squares, you can see it starts to pick up the pace in trying to wrap your brain around this. By the time you get up to 10x10 squares, you see why even very intelligent people give up here.

    These puzzles with higher numbers of squares require a high degree of spacial conceptual thinking. I love the challenge, but find it can be a little frustrating. When I get to a puzzle that really is taxing my brain, I go back to work a few puzzles at a lower level or even the level on a lower number of squares. Trust me, if you’re on Level 130 in 12x12 squares and you go back to a puzzle in 11x11 squares, you will not look at it say “I remember this.” After working several of the ‘less taxing’ puzzles, I can go back to the level that was frustrating me and see it in a new light and solve it and move on.

  • Beauty in Simplicity

    This game has taken over my free time over the past 2 years. It has grown to become my favorite mobile game of all time. When I started off the game seemed bland and straight-forward. As I took on more challenging levels I started noticing patterns and I strategized accordingly. As I progressed further, new puzzles called for new strategies.

    I also love the timed mode. The competitive aspect has pushed a group of my friends to top each-other and solve puzzles faster and faster. I have 15 5x5s in 30sec, I put in countless attempts to beat this every day.

    This isn’t a game about connecting lines. This is a game about failing and persevering, and I won’t be able to put it down until every level is perfect (almost there!).

  • Just got it! But...

    It is a great relaxing app to do like when you are laying in bed and can’t go to sleep and are trying SO hard to go to bed but you just can’t. It’s great for that, but... most levels are SUPER easy and then like 1 or 2 levels are challenging. That’s just ONE bad thing about it.

    My second complaint about it is that when the levels ARE challenging they are almost IMPOSSIBLE to complete! I which that the ones that ARE challenging would be POSSIBLE to complete and not to easy that a TWO year old would be able to complete (which most of their other levels are like).

    I hope the makers of this game consider my thoughts and I hope you make these changes. I hope people who are thinking of downloading this read this rating and think if they want to download this app. Thank you.

  • Love this game, one minor annoyance though

    I’ve played this game for literal years, it’s fun, it’s challenging, it really gets me thinking and helps kick start my brain in the morning. However, I have noticed one thing I don’t like about this. I was playing recently when I noticed something new about the daily streaks, and I felt my heart kinda sink. Apparently, if you don’t play every day, then your daily streak, instead of staying frozen on days you don’t play the game, will count backwards, and you have to actively keep your streak up. I don’t like this new feature as there are days when I just don’t have time to play games, and coming back to see something like my daily streak suffering because I just don’t have time to sit down and play a game, it really kinda upsets me. Still a really fun game though, and I play it whenever I can as I do genuinely enjoy it, but I will forever be annoyed about the thing with the daily streaks

  • An Amazing and Creative Game

    Flow free is a game where you have to connect lines. You have an amount of moves and it shows your best amount of moves for that level. What makes this game great is that it is logic and common sense. Also, it’s the fact that it helps your brain really think which two lines should go where so the other lines connect. This is also satisfying seeing them connect. Another thing I like is how they always get harder level by level and scoreboard by scoreboard. I like the idea of them creating daily challenges. The game is perfect really. It’s very creative and really causes your brain to think. It’s like a fun, creative, brain game and I like the idea of that.
    One thing that flow free should add is a challenging level where you have a certain amount of time to connect 20-30 lines. Another thing should be versing other players to see who can connect the lines or complete 1 entire scoreboard quicker. These two game modes should be called “Expert Level” and “Competitive Level”. I hope flow free can use one of my ideas. Therefore, this game is great but can use a couple game modes.
    Once again, thank you for reading this.

  • Puzzle Perfect!

    Always on the hunt for a fun, challenging puzzler with a calm, chill atmosphere; and I’ve tried a lot! Thankfully, a few puzzlers are so exceptional I come back to play again & again: Flow Free is one of those faves, & it’s been a fave go-to for years! The basic concept doesn’t even require instructions, but they steadily increase in difficulty, and naturally enough to enjoy & not be overwhelming. Oh, & on top of the standard game levels, there’s also daily puzzles, bonus packs, packs of just one difficulty level, and even sample packs of the game with a lil twist (which are also available as a separate app)! You can pay a little for no ads, &/or extra daily hints, but it’s truly not required to enjoy the game, & doesn’t bombard you with ads either! It’s more than worth the lil pocket change to support one of the best puzzlers!

  • Very Addicting

    Love this game. Have been playing for several years. Lost track of how many times I’ve beat all the levels and reset my progress to play all of them again. Best most satisfying sounds as well. The little “pops” when you connect a line. The water rippling sound when you complete a level. Even the water gushing sounds when you accidentally dissect a line.
    My only issue/suggestion is to allow players to earn hints by completing levels or completing a perfect pack. Especially for users who have purchased the ad free version of the app. The only way to get hints is by purchasing them or watching a 30 second ad which only gives you 1 hint; which is a little aggravating.
    Would have rated 5 stars if not for the lack of being rewarded for completing levels or packs.

  • Addictive and challenging but...

    Pro: based on my 933-day streak of daily puzzle completions, it’s fair to say the game has held my interest. It’s a good brain exercise to connect the dots and is especially good for playing when you’re waiting at the dentist/airport/etc.

    Con: the ads are terribly intrusive unless you pay for the ad-free version (which I did). Hints are expensive and no, I’m not paying for them. For a while you were able to earn hints by watching ads, but I just noticed that option is gone. It doesn’t look like that was mentioned in a release note, it’s just gone. That annoyed me enough to finally write a review!

    So basically I’ll keep playing the daily puzzles and work through the packs. When I’m out of hints, I’m deleting the game.

  • Flow FTW!

    The “Flow” games (Flow Free, Bridges, Hexagons etc.) are my favorite puzzle games on the App Store by far. They’re incredibly fun to play, and once in the swing of things, you can start burning through levels. That is one of the reasons I highly recommend purchasing the “All Puzzles Pack” that disables adds as well, that way you’ve not only uninterrupted play, but so many levels you’ll have a hard time attempting to beat them all, even after scores of hours!

    A fantastic game through and through. Clean, elegant, simple design with a straight forward premise that is great for a quick 5 minute break, or lying back in chair or a bed for an hour!

    Easily 5/5 Stars from me, and recommend to anyone whether you find yourself a puzzle game lover or not, I’d say at least give it a shot; you might be surprised!

  • Great Game Overall!

    I’ve been playing this game for years and I still enjoy it quite a lot. Very addictive and very much a brain game, you could really get tied up into this and after over thinking you’ll probably get a headache and realize moments later that the flow should of gone a different way. But honestly that thinking part makes it very fun.

    The only complaint I have is the ads, I remember when this game never had a video ever pop up. Now after doing about 2 or 4 levels in a roll you get a video. I mean I understand that these ads gives you guys money to be on here, but why not keep flow free like it was before, without the ads. Otherwise I still really love this game. And I will recommend it to anyone and also would still play it no matter what really.
