### 3/5 — Alphabet Scape

*2026-06-28*

I really like this game but can’t play it because it has a commercial after every round. That’s a bit too much to tolerate. Good luck!

### 4/5 — Love it but…..

*2026-05-20*

Love this game but when you have to watch an ad, there’s more than one ad and they’re way too long

### 4/5 — Just getting started

*2026-05-11, version 442*

So far so good but it’s still early in the game….level 20

### 4/5 — 😉😄😜😝

*2026-03-14*

So fun kind of hard and yet not hard enough you should totally make a advanced level of the game for more advanced gamer’s 😜😝😝

### 2/5 — Ads

*2026-01-28, version 438*

I paid to be rid of ads forever. But I’m still getting them!!!

### 2/5 — Strands scape

*2026-01-16*

To many ads and they stay on your screen for way to long .. it makes me
Loose interest in playing and I end up moving on to something else

**Developer response:** Hello, sorry to hear that.

### 3/5 — N

*2025-12-21, version 437*

Je m’ennuie de mon ancien Alpha Betty Saga qui n’avait pas de publicité sans arrêt comme celui-ci qui nous demande de payer pour ne pas en avoir. 😔

### 3/5 — All levels should be unlocked

*2025-12-13*

The game is cool, but having to pay to unlock episodes after paying for ad free is not cool at all. We should not have to pay to unlock more levels.

**Developer response:** THank you

### 3/5 — Enjoyable but a little greedy

*2025-12-13*

The game is about what is expected but seems to be a bit more oriented toward monetizing than is warranted.  The conversion of coins earned (or purchased) seems to be a bit expensive for certain helpful items.  This will likely discourage me from playing long-term.

**Developer response:** Thank you

### 4/5 — Great game but

*2025-12-01*

I love this game. It’s fun and challenging. Only one thing would make it perfect-to be able to connect it so that you can continue playing on several devices. For example, let’s say I get to level 18 on my iPhone, then later in the evening I want to play it on my iPad. I can but I have to start from whatever level I was in the last time I used it on my iPad. It’s frustrating especially if I’m on level 18 on my phone, but have to start on, let’s say, level 10 on my iPad. Maybe that could be something to add to this app.

**Developer response:** You can save your progress using Facebook in the settings.

### 5/5 — Words

*2025-11-30, version 432*

Love these word games!

### 5/5 — Lots of fun, can’t stop playing!

*2025-10-24, version 415*

This is great game. There is something super satisfying about crossing off these words and I can’t seem to stop playing it!

### 5/5 — I’m at level 2893! Love it!

*2025-10-19, version 414*

Please add more levels!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-10-13, version 412*

I love Strands Scape because it’s simple but challenging.

### 2/5 — Freezing

*2025-10-09, version 412*

It keeps freezing and I have to swipe out and restart

### 5/5 — Nil

*2025-10-03, version 395*

Love the regular updates and new levels?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-06-10, version 442*

This started out as a great substitute for Alpha Betty, but once you get to level 9 the long ads start and don’t stop!

### 1/5 — Keep asking to rate us

*2025-12-01, version 432*

Keep asking to rate us. Gave me Promo code Noads25 to remove adds and keep giving add called “rate us” plus app didn’t even opened. Sorry developers. You need to be sincere. Please don’t try to waste others time.

### 1/5 — Too much tracking.

*2025-10-10, version 412*

This app uses a particular ad tracking company which makes it really hard to decline tracking. You literally have to say no HUNDREDS of times, to each individual vendor. There’s no decline all option. Therefore, deleted before even playing until the dev chooses not to sell his customers data.

### 1/5 — Downloaded latest update

*2025-08-18, version 350*

Now it won’t work at all. I just get a flashing screen when I try to go to the next level.

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads

*2024-10-21, version 182*

This game would be A LOT more fun if there weren’t any ads, or at least not between every single play.

### 1/5 — Paid to remove ads but I still get them

*2024-09-19, version 163*

pricing model has also since changed since my purchase and I see ads again

### 1/5 — Don’t pay to remove ads

*2024-05-22, version 113*

I paid to have ads removed…they took the money…twice …but ads still there. EVERY TIME.

### 1/5 — App constantly crashes when opening

*2024-03-28, version 96*

I think I would enjoy the game, but the app crashes every time I open it (IPad mini 2).

### 1/5 — Ridiculous!

*2024-02-14, version 79*

Great game until you pay for the upgrade to ad free… the very next day the game stops working at level 70. Don’t bother. Waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Level 71 unplayable

*2024-01-14, version 65*

Fun game until I finished Level 70. It takes me to Level 71 but it’s all darkened out and won’t allow me to tap on any letters to bring down the bird. All I can do is quit and exit out. Very frustrating

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2026-03-17, version 440*

I am only up to level 10, so have just begun. So far so good 😉

*2026-01-02*

Das Spiel ist sehr schön aufgezogen und es lässt sich toll spielen.
Leider lässt sich das Spiel nicht mit Facebook verbinden

**Developer response:** Thank you

### 5/5 — Strangely addictive

*2025-12-26, version 437*

I find I reach for this game to fill in time but then have trouble putting it away!

### 5/5 — Fun game for memory!

*2025-12-08, version 433*

I like Strands Scape because it’s great for my memory.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2025-12-03*

I’ve been playing Royal Match for a couple of years. I also really enjoy word games. This mashes them together in a really fun way! Definitely two thumbs up!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much! You are 100% right!

### 5/5 — Lange nach einem Spiel wie Alphabetty gesucht

*2025-12-03*

**Developer response:** Thanks!

### 5/5 — Chilled

*2025-12-01, version 432*

I love Strands Scape because it’s a fun way to exercise my brain.

### 5/5 — Copy:Paste

*2025-12-01, version 432*

I love Strands Scape because it’s exciting every time.

### 5/5 — Helpful for ADHD

*2025-11-30*

I can honestly say that this game is a great way to help strengthen the executive functions that have to do with focus & attention, especially if you have ADHD, like myself.

**Developer response:** Oh! Appreciate this review! You are welcome!
