### 3/5 — Fun but get errors

*2026-08-18, version 1.6.0.0402*

I can not do the challenges because I get network error every time. I can play the regular levels and it’s a fun game but I’d like to be able to enjoy all parts of the game but the errors get annoying.

### 2/5 — Took money and no items

*2026-07-14, version 1.6.0.0402*

I don’t normally write reviews but I like this game, but 3x it charged my Apple account and I didn’t get my items. I gave it 2 stars because it was fun and it’s my fault for trying it the 2nd and 3rd time

### 4/5 — Fun Adventure. Until Now.

*2026-03-15, version 1.6.0.0402*

I enjoyed playing this game up until the very recent. Only problem is that there are no new updates regarding the game and pretty much done as of this time. 

The game was fun. But best bet is that the story won’t go forward. If you’re still playing the game, keep going until you reach the finish point.

### 2/5 — Game

*2025-07-02, version 1.6.0.0402*

Wat too many ads and the clothes that needs to be chosen is so skimpy. Do better

### 2/5 — Nice game but a rip off

*2025-05-25, version 1.6.0.0402*

I paid to remove ads and I’m still forced to watch the ads.

### 2/5 — .

*2025-05-14, version 1.6.0.0402*

Once I win so many levels in a row it glitches a level to where you can’t win and takes away your boosters so you lose on purpose. Fun game but it has some of the dumbest glitches

### 2/5 — Should be easier

*2025-02-14, version 1.5.9.0206*

Has the makings to be a great game but takes way to many chances and lives to make a simple move it’s crazy. I’ve just went through about 10 lives trying to remove 1 remaining block, other than that it’s a pretty good game.

### 1/5 — Bugged on level 38

*2025-02-02, version 1.5.8.0125*

After completing level 38, the whole game freezes. I’m not able to move anything on the puzzle board anymore, but all other buttons work. It just gets stuck everytime I complete the puzzle. I closed the app and rebooted it twice and got the same results.

### 3/5 — Starts to become impossible

*2025-01-22, version 1.5.7.0117*

I just played a level and it had to mix it up 10 times for me to be able to play I really like this game but it get impossible which does make it fun please try and make some adjustments maybe get 2 stars depending on the level..

### 3/5 — Eh

*2025-01-05, version 1.5.4.1227*

It leaves me on the loading screen

### 3/5 — Eventually becomes impossible

*2024-12-31, version 1.5.4.1227*

I like this game. The graphics are cute and story is fun. This is similar to others like it, except it becomes basically impossible to progress without spending money. There comes a point where the levels get so hard that you’ll play them 10, 20, 30 times and then get one star when you finally complete it. You rarely get more than 20 moves for every level, regardless of difficulty. I do like that it takes less time to accumulate another life to play than other games, but that makes sense because you’ll easily use them all on one level multiple times over. I understand needing to balance the challenge, but there comes a point where when every single level is so hard that you can’t progress it all, it becomes less fun. I’m not paying $5 every time I need gems to get 5 more moves. I would watch ads for them, but they don’t even give that option. They just want you to pay. I’m pretty close to deleting the game at this point.

### 4/5 — I like it but

*2024-12-19, version 1.5.3.1217*

It takes a long time to accumulate gems which is annoying and the jelly is hard to see. I wish they made it a more stand out color that isn’t the same as the matching pieces like bright yellow or something. Other than that I like it

### 3/5 — very questionable storyline

*2024-10-15, version 1.3.7.1011*

This game is mostly good, and the story is pretty inoffensive for the most part. However, there’s a storyline where one of the main character’s HIGH SCHOOL AGRD friend, is seduced by the mother of one of their other friends. Now there’s an event solidifying that this boy met the woman he’s dating when he was maybe 9 years old, and again, she is the adult mother of his friend. Very big red flag and not a good look.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Too much added

*2026-07-28, version 1.6.0.0402*

I love the game but too much added.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-16, version 1.6.0.0402*

The game is cute but they don’t give you stars when you pass levels. Everytime you pass a level it’s supposed to reward you with a star which you then use towards progression. It doesn’t reward you the stars. Don’t recommend. Find another game, there’s so many others like this that are fair.

### 1/5 — Unoriginal and aggressive

*2026-03-12, version 1.6.0.0402*

An exact replica of every other game of this style and the ads are so aggressive and degrading

### 1/5 — Idk

*2026-02-06, version 1.6.0.0402*

I love this game just I can’t pass a level and I’m not gonna pay some money for a game y’all just need to fix the fact that we have to repeat the game or just delete the game fix the levels and make it to were we are able to skip the level or change it bc like what the heck if make this a 5 star rating but I can’t bc I can’t even pass a level

### 1/5 — Will not load

*2025-07-19, version 1.6.0.0402*

It won’t load. I played for a day but now I can’t even open the app it will not load

### 1/5 — Impossible levels

*2025-07-18, version 1.6.0.0402*

Level 179 is completely impossible to beat unless you spend $10, and even then you might get unlucky and not able to pass the level. It seems like an entire scam to get people to buy boosters in the game

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-06-06, version 1.6.0.0402*

Gives you the option to watch an ad for more gems, however, even though I declined the offer, it still makes me watch the ad every time. Deleting the app now.

### 1/5 — Takes money to get anywhere

*2025-04-30, version 1.6.0.0402*

It’s a great game they get you hooked then they make the levels impossible to pass unless you spend money just like all the other apps. Completely disappointing ruined my fun and made me angry instead so thanks a lot.

### 1/5 — so difficult

*2025-03-20, version 1.5.9.0206*

level 169 is actually impossible. i’ve attempted this level well over 30 times, and i’m still incapable of passing it. i’ll watch the videos to get extra moves AND boosters, but i still can’t pass it. this game has just become completely unfun

### 1/5 — Levels become impossible with out spending

*2025-03-20, version 1.5.9.0206*

Some levels require you to buy multiple power ups to even have a chance at completing them. Obvious cash grab would not recommend.

I have a lot of fun playing this game.

### 5/5 — 🥹My Precious Ted 🥹

*2025-07-29, version 1.6.0.0402*

I love this game but.. why did me and Ted have to break upp😭 I wish we could make our own decisions like instead of going with the storyline 🥲 I miss Ted..

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2025-03-31, version 1.5.9.0206*

I have never played a game that actually offers you money to beat certain levels until now plus the story is addictive I highly recommend this game

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-11-24, version 1.4.5.1114*

I love this game

### 5/5 — Game

*2024-11-20, version 1.4.5.1114*

### 5/5 — Game

*2024-09-03, version 1.2.8.0823*

I love this game I love the set up is I love when I 3 stars at a time I am enjoying it a lot I will keep playing it

### 5/5 — ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

*2024-09-01, version 1.2.8.0823*

I LOVE this game. It is so fun. I like how it has the match three aspect and also the story aspect. The best part is… it’s EXACTLY like the ad, which is great! I’ve downloaded SO many games based off of ads and they’re NOTHING like the ad! So I really like this game, and I totally recommend it to anyone who is like me and gets bored of games really easily. I can sit for HOURS on this game and not get bored. I seriously can’t pull myself away from it.

### 5/5 — The hopeful journey

*2024-08-05, version 1.2.2.0730*

Even though all these ads are pretty annoying most of the time playing this game I love the story and how we are helping Annie get rid of this bullies so she can live out her high school life. If I ever came across something like this in real life, which I can’t now that high school has passed, but if I do, I would stand up for someone just like Nate. Because it’s the right thing to do and I want to be a good person. I love this game! Keep up the amazing work, everyone! You all are loved and appreciated!
