Paid to have annoying ads removed. A few weeks ago game stopped working (timer at -55 seconds so stops as soon as a block is moved). Apparent update 2 weeks ago did not change anything. Would have given in 4 star before (-1 because the games are somewhat repetitive) now 2 because of lack of care by creators of the app, but since they did respond to my message about the problem I did not give it a 1. ### 2/5 — Like the game but… *2025-07-24, version 1.4.0* UPDATE: As of today I’m not able to play. The timer starts out at a negative 50 or so (-58). Impossible to move. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling and not only did it not fix the problem but set me back to level 1. Stars down to 2. Very disappointing! This is the best block busting game that I have found but I find that my levels keep resetting. I will get to level 300 and am eligible to play in the crown game but then the next day I am back down to level 156. I thought it was a glitch at first but it keeps happening. I want to continue to move up the ladder in levels but the game won’t let me. And there isn’t any link to customer service in the game or even any instructions. If this were fixed or I could get a resolution, I would up this to 5 stars. ### 1/5 — Took money, did not give boosters *2025-07-12, version 1.3.5* This game is addictive. I was playing and bought boosters. Three times I did not get the booster I paid for. Deleted app and reinstalled. Will see if this fixes issue. ### 1/5 — Betrug *2025-07-12, version 1.3.5* Keine Versprechen stimmen. Werbung ohne Ende und wenn man Hilfmittel kauft, bekommt man sie nicht aber das Geld wird abgezogen. Betrug! ### 2/5 — Liked the game until level 133 *2025-06-17, version 1.3.5* I really liked the game but once I get to level 133 the timer goes to Finish. Tried to delete and start over. Same thing. ### 2/5 — Repetitive puzzles *2025-05-26, version 1.3.1* As you keep advancing the rounds/levels you tend to notice that you’re essentially playing the same puzzles all over again. Add different puzzles, replaying the same puzzles gets real old, real fast. It’s too repetitive and boring. Also actually practice what you preach by adding zen mode to the game like advertised. Not everyone wants to be stressed out by a game, some of us just want to relax and solve a puzzle in peace. ### 1/5 — Not true advertising *2025-05-26, version 1.3.1* In your advertisement you said no timer. Yet you have a timer. That is why I am deleting your app. If you plan to charge money because the time ran out or start again that should have been made clear. Shame on you ! ### 1/5 — Another lying ad *2025-05-24, version 1.3.1* Ad says no stress no timers. And of course there is a timer, right from the first level. They must be able to steal enough personal info just from a single opening to be worth it, since Apple obviously doesn’t check. ### 1/5 — Betrug *2025-05-22, version 1.3.1* Die Werbung sagte es sei ohne Timer und es gäbe einen Spielmodus ohne Zeitbeschränkung. Reine Lüge, wird sofort gelöscht. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2025-05-19, version 1.3.1* Their advertising said that no stress no timers that’s a lie. They have a timer just like everyone else. ### 1/5 — It has timers! *2025-05-19, version 1.3.1* It advertises itself as “no timers, no stress”. Yes timers, yes stress ### 1/5 — No timer? Liars *2025-05-19, version 1.3.1* Got suckered by the lie of an ad. Not anymore. I uninstalled it. ### 1/5 — There is a timer *2025-05-19, version 1.3.1* All of these games are the same; all the ads say no timers… they ALL are times!000 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Did enjoy *2025-11-19, version 1.5.1* Latest update seems to have made it the normal money making as all these type of games. Used to get so many free boosters every week just for playing. ### 1/5 — Broken!!! *2025-11-08, version 1.4.0* Stopped working a few months back, lost my purchased points. Don’t bother! ### 1/5 — Not working! *2025-10-31, version 1.4.0* I start a level, it says I have 58 seconds, I move one block and it says I’m out of time. Repeat, repeat until I’m out of lives. Watching an ad doesn’t work. Uninstalling. ### 1/5 — Broken at level 193 *2025-09-17, version 1.4.0* If you move a piece at this level it puts a time is up message and you can't play game at all. They won't fix bug despite contacting support. Actually sent me an email whining that people should stop sending messages about the problem as they already know about it. Then fix it! It's been a few months with no fix for this. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2025-09-07, version 1.4.0* Garbage made by garbage. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-08-23, version 1.4.0* I’m not sure what happened, but this game no longer works. I go to make my first move and it says I’m out of time, even though I’m really not. ### 1/5 — Enjoy but *2025-08-12, version 1.4.0* They seem to have stopped new levels ### 1/5 — Too bad *2025-08-11, version 1.4.0* I enjoy this app even though sometimes the puzzles are repetitive but now I can’t even play. The timer runs out as soon as I try to make a move. If this is fixed, I’ll revise this. ### 1/5 — Still waiting for a fix *2025-08-08, version 1.4.0* For almost a month, there is a glitch in the game where once you move a block to start the clock, the game is over ### 1/5 — Cheated *2025-07-16, version 1.3.6* I purchased a hammer and fan package and it did not drop ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Please fix this game *2025-08-29, version 1.4.0* I really enjoy this game but for the past few weeks it has not worked. When you open a level, it shows a negative amount of time to complete the level. So your out of time before you can make even one move. I don’t want to uninstall the game because I have purchased boosters that I’m afraid I’ll lose. Please repair! ### 5/5 — Level 292 *2025-07-28, version 1.4.0* I love this game but something happened on level 292. The clock shows -56.00 and won’t let me play. It opened up that way. Please fix. I’m addicted to this game ### 5/5 — Won’t open *2025-06-10, version 1.3.5* Love the game, but for some reason today the game won’t open. ### 5/5 — Best of the lot *2025-05-16, version 1.3.1* This game is unique among the block puzzles. When you run out of time, you only need to watch a short ad and you get another 15secs. You can do this multiple times until the puzzle is finished. ### 5/5 — Strange leaderboard *2025-04-15, version 1.2.8* Love the game! ### 4/5 — Frustrating *2025-09-04, version 1.4.0* Love this game but is is broken!!! It needs to be fixed as it is frozen and therefore repetitive. ### 4/5 — Relaxing mode *2025-04-22, version 1.2.8* I love this game but it’s stressful. If you made a relaxing mode I’d play all the time!! ### 3/5 — Can’t play *2025-08-04, version 1.4.0* I am having the same issue others have mentioned. Game starts at negative seconds, and as soon as you touch one tile, the game ends. I clicked on the thing to watch a video, and it kept deducting clones, but never showed the video. ### 3/5 — Like the game but… *2025-05-30* This is the best block busting game that I have found but I find that my levels keep resetting. I will get to level 300 and am eligible to play in the crown game but then the next day I am back down to level 156. I thought it was a glitch at first but it keeps happening. I want to continue to move up the ladder in levels but the game won’t let me. And there isn’t any link to customer service in the game or even any instructions. If this were fixed or I could get a resolution, I would up this to 5 stars. ### 3/5 — Reaching the end *2025-05-08, version 1.3.0* There comes a point in all of these types of games when it stops being enjoyable. In every one of them, the times become far too short to enable a decent attempt at the more difficult challenges. If only one developer would increase the time considerably, or even take the timer away, players could study the challenge and try to work it out like a game of chess. Ok, so at level 125, I’m going to delete. It has become impossible unless you use umpteen lives deleting colours.
