You expect that they are going to offer you in-app purchases but when they let you play only a few games and then hit you with the fact that you have to pay or you get no more play....that is not a free game with in-app purchases, that is a trial game. If I had known it was a trial game I wouldn’t have downloaded it at all. ### 1/5 — Changing opinion, *2020-01-13, version 1.0.7* I love the game but it doesn’t tell you you have to spend money to play. They need to be up front that it is a pay to play game. ### 1/5 — Pay to play? *2019-12-22, version 1.0.7* Nowhere does it state that you play a few games and then must pay to continue the game. Deleted game straightaway. ### 1/5 — Money grabber *2019-12-21, version 1.0.7* I was enjoying it but after 10 rounds or so you have to buy the game. Bye!!! ### 1/5 — Was fun ???? *2019-11-21, version 1.0.7* Get to play a few times and can’t go past that with out paying how frustrating and does not mention you have to buy to play before you download 😈 ### 3/5 — No sign that purchase was required *2019-11-04, version 1.0.7* I like this game but feel like the fact that it has to be purchased after a few plays is deceiving. I didn’t see anywhere that a purchase is required. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2019-10-08, version 1.0.7* Downloaded to play, then found I had to pay to continue! Not cool! Was ok, but never going to pay to continue. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2019-10-05, version 1.0.7* Let’s me play a few games but then I can’t play anymore unless I pay 💰 for more games. Not going to happen I deleted it for that reason. I liked it but I’m never going to pay by the hour! ### 3/5 — Keeps resetting levels *2019-09-08, version 1.0.7* I would give the game 5 stars however there is a bug that causes the sub levels to reset and I have to replay them. Super annoying. ### 1/5 — Suckers *2019-09-02, version 1.0.7* It was fun until I had to pay to play the next level! Not nice folks not nice! ### 1/5 — It’s not free! *2019-09-02, version 1.0.7* You play one level and have to buy the next level? You should say this upfront! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Confused *2023-05-29, version 1.1.0* It didn’t say I had to purchase the game to continue playing that’s just not fair ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2023-05-24, version 1.1.0* I don’t usually buy games but I did with this thinking they would be lots of levels, once you collect the things that’s it, you can’t expand or anything like that save your money, ### 1/5 — I see no point *2023-05-09, version 1.1.0* I don’t know if I just have a broken game or what, but I see no point to this game. I play and play and it takes for ever to reach the goal, then when I get to the number, nothing much seems to happen. The matching part is just endless and it seems zero strategy involved. I didn’t see and rules to look up. I don’t know what I’m missing. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2023-01-04, version 1.1.0* Supposed to be free but can’t go no further without buying Quest2. Good game. I will be deleting now. ### 1/5 — What??? You get through level 1 and have to pay... 🤬 *2022-02-09, version 1.1.0* I have been playing games for a long time but never been forced to pay. ### 1/5 — Help, I want to go forward *2021-01-12, version 1.1.0* I just started this lovely game and I’m at 26/36 in the beginning. I have found the compass and just was shown the clay jug. So, I push play and an advertising screen comes up asking me if I want to upgrade for $6.99. But at the bottom left corner it says- “already purchased”, which is confusing because I didn’t purchase the game. My understanding was this game was free. Can you tell me what has happened? ### 1/5 — What a rort. *2020-09-23, version 1.0.7* Don’t bother. Twenty minutes and your hand is in your pocket. ### 1/5 — Level 2 *2020-06-10, version 1.0.7* You make on one level to even get three stars with very very little points you need to fix that I have try too many times to get enough points to get three stars it’s bs ### 1/5 — Free? Not quite! *2020-05-09, version 1.0.7* I only started to play this game today. I found the first artifact, but it wants me to pay to go further, or I can reset and do the beginning all over! That is the worst bull I ever saw. I am not even going to give it a second thought. I am deleting it now. You game developers on this one can just kiss off! ### 1/5 — Pas honnête *2020-04-16, version 1.0.7* La partie commence. Puis il faut acheter le jeu pour continuer! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Yes Jayashree. *2024-06-17, version 1.1.0* Like it very very much. ### 5/5 — Awesome Game *2022-05-01, version 1.1.0* Even though you need to buy the game, it is worth the money. I am really enjoying both the timed and relaxed modes. This allows me to play against myself in both modes. My only wish is it should have many more levels to play. The reset the game also a good feature. ### 5/5 — Fabulous game with no in-app purchases! *2021-08-02, version 1.1.0* I’ve been using this game for years! It’s very relaxing to play and has some very nice features: Even after you finish the adventure you can keep playing hundreds of variations of three types of games. Each variation has its own music that is actually nice to listen to. In the years I’ve been playing it the game has never crashed or glitched. I really appreciate no in-app purchases. I find it so frustrating that in most games you can’t get anywhere unless you pay extra and have to keep paying! I’d rather pay once up front for the whole game. ### 5/5 — Yes Jayashree . *2021-04-21, version 1.1.0* Like it very very much . ### 5/5 — Match tile too build game that's rather unique *2020-08-14, version 1.0.7* This is only a Demo game it's really short...But here's my opinion It's actually really cool I like these match and build games.. But this is unique in the fact it's got both a swipe and tap method when matching.. I really like the falling puzzle it's different.. Over all this is actually a really unique and fun game highly recommend it if you like these type of games you play match games and also build a tribal city.. Rather cool ### 5/5 — Great games *2020-04-16* Good level of difficulty, nice variation of game types. Enjoyed it ### 5/5 — Best game *2020-02-20, version 1.0.7* This is the best game for relieving stress. All their game is stress free have it all wrong. If a game has time limits, that just puts you back at work where every task is needed ASAP. Those games are all stressFUL not stress RELEASING. I also love that there are two game plays. ### 5/5 — Artifact quest *2019-09-28, version 1.0.7* I have been looking for a game like this for a long time. So enjoyable and stress free. Wonderful gameplay. Love the individual puzzles included in it. Love you can choose timed or not. Thank you for a great game!! ### 5/5 — Relaxing and fun *2019-08-12, version 1.0.7* Finally a game that lets me play at my own pace, doesn’t raise my blood pressure. I never write reviews but I want the developers to know that there are a lot of us out here who like a game that doesn’t punish us for not being shoving-pushing-elbowing competitive with ourselves or anybody else. You could make it more that way, if that suits you, by putting yourself on the clock. But I’ll be very content to kill some time, maybe watch a few ads, and build my village. Thank you for putting my kind of game out there. I wish I’d found it sooner. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2019-07-02, version 1.0.6* So far no issues. I like that there are different games to be played. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
