### 3/5 — Can’t purchase boosts

*2021-03-09, version 1.31*

On the iPad mini I can’t purchase boost because the buy butting is below the bottom. New iPad mini lasted version 3-9-21

### 2/5 — Hmmm

*2020-03-15, version 1.30*

But I love the game. Kinda frustrating

### 3/5 — It okay

*2020-02-23, version 1.30*

Sooo they are many ads in the middle of games. I don’t appreciate it! Just get rid of some of the ads but for I’m deleting!😁

### 2/5 — Ndnnd

*2020-02-21, version 1.30*

Oyun güzel ama koşa uzatın otun süresini

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-02-12, version 1.30*

Sooo much ads inside while playing!!! Stop put too much ads

### 2/5 — Travando

*2020-02-12, version 1.30*

Otimizem o jogo pois trava bastante

### 1/5 — Reklamları abarttınız

*2020-02-11, version 1.30*

Oyun arasında reklam koymak nedir ya?

### 1/5 — Реклама

*2020-02-11, version 1.30*

Бля, кожну 1 хвилину вискакує реклама, не можливо нормально грати.

### 1/5 — Horrível

*2020-02-10, version 1.30*

Propaganda o tempo todo

### 3/5 — .

*2020-02-10, version 1.30*

O jogo até é bom mas tem propaganda até no meio da partida e se torna cansativo de jogar

### 1/5 — Жадность-порок

*2020-02-10, version 1.30*

Удалил, как только выскочила реклама во время игры

### 1/5 — Publicidade demais.

*2020-02-09, version 1.30*

Horrível de jogar com tanta propaganda. Não baixem

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-02-09, version 1.30*

The game would be a half fun time waster. But it is infested with ads. It EVEN pauses your game to force another advert down your throat.

### 1/5 — Saturado de publicidad

*2020-02-08, version 1.30*

Demasiada publicidad en un juego tan básico aburre

### 1/5 — Ads are ridiculous

*2020-01-18, version 1.30*

Ads after every game, and before every game, and during the game. I have to sit through 3 ads, to play a 2 minute game. That’s asinine.

### 3/5 — Fun game but WAYYYYYY too many ads

*2020-01-17, version 1.30*

Love this game, but there are way too many ads, and no way to exit out of them early. Not to mention, there’s a whole 30 second ad smack dab in the middle of the game. Makes me not want to play at all.

### 2/5 — need a better balancing rule

*2020-01-16, version 1.30*

too difficult.  If I can’t become the largest one within the first few seconds,  then there’s no way to win

### 1/5 — I don’t like it anymore

*2021-06-01, version 1.31*

I used to love this game but u hate the fact that you’re playing against robots. And the option to start bigger is unfair. Because I don’t want to watch an every single game. And the people that starts bigger always win because the ones that doesn’t have less chances of winning.

### 1/5 — Playing against computers?

*2020-07-03, version 1.31*

I like this game a lot. I would give it 5 stars. But I‘ve realized that you aren’t always playing against the same people or even real people? You can start with or without starting bigger (which requires you to watch an ad). You can watch half the ad and quit it in the middle and still join the game. If I don’t choose to start bigger by watching an ad, I get to start immediately. But if my opponent chooses to start bigger, they must watch that 30 sec ad. So why do we start at the same time when I forego the advantage?? Then there are instances where I take the advantage. And I doubt everyone else waits for me to watch my ad to start. They start immediately. Time wise that is impossible. I think we are all just playing against computers.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-05-05, version 1.31*

They don’t tell you about power ups, more experienced players take advantage of you, I think after you get world domination you can’t have power ups used on you it’s not fair, if they do. It’s impossible to by skins or power ups based off where the screen is located. I’m not even near some players and automatically it’s like  x player can eat and take your beads. Very very very very (did I mention very) glitchy:(

### 1/5 — ADS🙄

*2020-04-14, version 1.30*

I downloaded this game a few years ago and There was barely any ads! Now there is a game after every game then IN THE MIDDLE OF UR GAME THERE IS AN AD! I literally feel like I’m watching an ad every few seconds i get annoyed and close the app out! Will be deleting this game

### 1/5 — Anuncios

*2020-03-18, version 1.30*

Aveces cuando juegas te aparecen anuncios y en media partida

### 1/5 — Pésima experiencia

*2020-02-27, version 1.30*

Se entiende que se debe vivir de la publicidad, pero ésta es excesiva, sale al medio de una partida, por lo cual el juego se hace lento.

### 1/5 — Saleh

*2020-02-23, version 1.30*

They gave me advertisements while playing game literally like who does that you can give advertising after game

### 1/5 — 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

*2020-02-17, version 1.30*

Muchos anuncios y no disfrutas del juego para todo es un anuncio

### 1/5 — Pésima experiencia

*2020-02-12, version 1.30*

Compré sin querer la eliminación de publicidad y resulté con la sorpresa que nunca se eliminaron... aparecen y aparecen miles de comerciales. Eso es ser sin vergüenza 

2. La jugabilidad es pésima, se queda pegado al tan solo entrar 

No recomiendo para nada

### 1/5 — Reklam

*2020-02-12, version 1.30*

Oyunun süresi kısa ve oyunun ortasında reklam cıkıyor saçma ve basit. Oyunun mantıgı guzel ama belliki tek amac reklama tıklatmak oyun oynatmak degil. Üxüldüm.
