After a few levels expect to watch a lot of ads if you don’t want to pay
The reviews saying after a certain level the ads get insane are true. You need so may available holes to solve a puzzle after Level 7. Need to unlock it? Watch a long ad. An item obscuring a hole? Not enough tickets earned? You can’t use the coins to buy any so you either fork over your credit card info or watch a “video” which means an ad. Prepare for long ads every single time. Some ads let you exit after a few seconds but those aren’t guaranteed. At least it isn’t an ad between every level completed like I have experienced with other free games. Everyone has to make a buck after all. Enjoy the same ads over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and and over and over again y’all!
PS
And no, you can’t exit the app and quickly return to try to end the ad and resume. The ad will pause. Very sneaky smart you cunning advertisement developers! I hope you got a big fat check. Having to sit and wait is like a mystery game. Will it be a 10 second ad or 30 seconds or a minute? Who knows! That should be a game too at this point since not all ads show how long it will last.Show lessld0713
Fun puzzle games but too many ads
So let’s start with the good.
The puzzles are interesting, some make you think. The graphics are nice and the physics is consistent so there’s never a “why did it do that?!” moment. So to the developer - you’ve done a good job.
However. Adverts!!!
This is just bonkers! I’ve never seen so many adverts. And it’s the same 4-5 which make it worse (have to watch 20-60s video then an interactive phase then 3 rounds of close, close, close).
Every 2 puzzles, you have to watch another ad. So 3 mins game play, 1-2mins ad.
Then there’s an ad bar at the bottom of the screen and then adverts to open up holes in the board - some levels you have to watch an ad to be able to actually get all the pieces out.
It’s fun for a while but gets repetitive fast. There’s coins and tickets but I have no idea why you need them.
I played to level 35 and binned it as I was spending too much time watching ads. I get that folk need to make money. But this is unbalanced. The £5 ad-free version would be better but you’ll still need to have to watch an advert every 2 puzzles or so.
It’s painful!Show lessSonic The Chestwig
Sent me screwy it did!
Fun game that grows on you however, the slightly trickier puzzles are impossible to solve without submitting to additional adverts, and these are already killing the game for me. And so to the adverts, Screen after screen of adverts and sliding ‘download now’ pages followed by more adverts finally blew my mind and I deleted the whole app. V disappointed doesn’t come close. Heck of a shame that greed got in the way of another great game. And no! Zen Word will not make you younger as seen a hundred times in repeated adverts after only 38 levels. So so sad.Show lessjonopep
Excellent game- if it wasn’t a blatant cash grab
I really enjoy playing this game. It’s challenging and engaging. However, once you pass a certain point, it becomes nearly impossible to pass the levels unless you use some kind of booster. Of course, you have to buy these boosters. I imagine all games these days are set up this way, so that they make continual profits. But if I’ve paid you for the game, I should be able to play the game.
I find it, annoying that you cannot earn tickets, you must buy them. And without the tickets, you can’t play the game.
If you are OK endlessly spending money, I think this is probably a great game. I just don’t want to be asked for cash every time I pull my phone out of my pocket to play a game.Show lessSFVoice Teacher
Ad Free doesn't get rid of ads
The game is quite good, but there are way too many ads and they are long as well as repetitive. Unfortunately, paying the £4.99 to get rid of them merely gets rid of the ones between each level, you are still forced to watch them for anything mildly outside of the norm. I've had to watch three or four within 15 minutes of paying for Ad Free!
Very disappointed.Show lessShinyredcar
Ads ads ads
Game itself is fun but it’s impossible to continue playing. You spend more time watching ads than actually playing.
The puzzle has a timer which is nowhere near long enough. To get an extra 30 seconds you have to spend 69 seconds watching an ad - the annoying ones that when it finally finishes you get another screen which you have to wait for again.
There are not enough empty holes so you have to buy an extra one by watching an ad
If you make a mistake and want to undo a move- another ad
Want to restart a level ? Another ad
Even if you pay to remove ads you still get ads for extra time etc
To finish a single level I average 5-6 minutes of ads.
Sorry but this is just over the top. Deleting….Show lessJdV999
not entirely convinced level 23 is possible
very fun game but level twenty three makes me want to bite my phonegr.ffyn
Great game. Too many ads
The challenges are interesting but there are far too many ads. I understand the need for ads but these are relentless. Starting to lose interestYawn3000
Great Game - Ads Too Intrusive
This is a really fun nuts/bolts/screws game but unfortunately the adverts are CONSTANT. And without in-app purchases it is impossible to progress. Even more annoying is that some of the ads are just on a loop - you can never get out of them. So if you are watching them to get extra help with a level, you just lose everything because the only way out is to shut the app down. I don’t mind watching ads when I don’t want to pay for the game, but with this game, they are interminable. I’m deleting it now!Show lessGurured

Ok game. Usual overkill on ads. Ads between levels, if you need a boost etc. Each level has 2 games, an easy and hard. I gave up when I was forced to watch ads for no reason. Several levels the boards would not drop after screw was removed. They just remained stuck in place so I watched an ad to remove a screw. As soon as I returned to game the stuck board would drop which meant I didn’t need that boost I just watched an ad for! The mechanics of the game purposely do not work correctly in order to force you to watch ads. I found it faster to just close and restart game instead of watching the ads, but beware, if you are on the hard level and restart it will take you to the easy level 1st. I made it to level 61 before the ads just drove me awayShow lessToomanychanges
