### 4/5 — Not really sure.

*2023-04-19*

It’s a lot of fun. Actually it’s more fun than I’ve had with your games, or any games in the App Store, for that matter. It makes you think. But inevitably, you end up having to buy stuff, to get anywhere after certain period of time or levels. No thanks. I am 86ing this app.

### 2/5 — bloxorz review

*2022-10-20, version 2.0.3*

This game is super fun however there is an add after EVERY SINGLE ROUND. I would enjoy this game so much more if they stopped previewing so many adds all the time

### 3/5 — Good Game But Has One Issue...

*2019-09-22, version 1.4.11*

I like playing this game, however the positioning of the puzzle and side buttons is ridiculous. The hints, pass, and redo buttons take up WAY too much of the screen space. It sometimes completely obscures parts of the puzzle. It's very annoying, and it seems like this could be an easy fix.

**Developer response:** "Thank you for your suggestion! 
We are always open to our dear users' comments anytime!"

### 3/5 — Great game but 3 stars. Here’s why.

*2019-07-11, version 1.4.8*

Let me just start off by saying the redo button is in a spot where anyone can push it by accident. It’s on the left side on the bottom kind of like where the “a” key is on a keyboard. I’m left handed, so it’s so frustrating when I’m trying to beat a level and all of a sudden it’s redoing it. And there’s no button to click like “are you sure” or something. Moving on to another problem. There is WAYYYYYYYY too many ads. I cannot finish a level without 1 ad. So those are the issues I have with this game. If the creator is reading this, PLEASE fix them. It will make the game so much better.

### 2/5 — Not worth the time

*2019-05-29, version 1.4.7*

The nostalgia in this game was immense and I had a fun time playing it but the ads made it unbearable. I played the first 20 or so levels and they were extremely easy to say the least but unfortunately the was bombarded with ads every other mission. Honestly, it felt as if they made this solely on the hopes of ad revenue from short term users.

### 4/5 — So many ads!

*2019-04-18, version 1.4.5*

The game is pretty fun! Especially with the zodiac signs! I’m obsessed with them!😝 but there are so many ads! Like every 2 levels there would be ads, and the more I played it the more ads there are! Now there are ads every single time you complete a level and it kind of wastes your time. But still this game is pretty fun👍🏻

### 2/5 — To many adds

*2019-01-12, version 1.4.3*

This is an awesome app, but after only one round there is always a commercial. So I see more commercials, than I do the game.😬

### 2/5 — So many ads and way too easy

*2018-12-26, version 1.4.3*

I was really excited to play this game because of nostalgic reasons but there are super long ads every 5 minutes which becomes annoying. Also, it is not nearly as challenging as the OG computer version, I hardly have to think about the moves I make. Great potential but cons outweigh that.

### 2/5 — The Most Ads I’ve EVER Seen in a Mobile Game

*2018-12-11, version 1.4.2*

Let me start this off by saying the gameplay of “Bloxorz” is fantastic, but that doesn’t make up for the COUNTLESS number of advertisements this game has; to get an idea of how bad it really is, think about this: each level takes anywhere from 10 to 30 seconds to complete, and every single time you get an ad which last for 5–10 seconds, meaning that ≈1/4 of the game is ADS. Tell me that is ridiculous. Great gameplay—ruined by greedy producers.

### 2/5 — Good [ADS!] game [ADS!]. But [ADS!] ads  [ADS!] after  [ADS!] every  [ADS!] level [ADS!].

*2018-12-10, version 1.4.2*

Literally after every single level is another ad. That’s too much, man!

### 4/5 — Fun game but crashes constantly

*2018-11-19, version 1.3.8*

I really do enjoy this game when it works properly. I have the free version and so there are ads. Periodically there’ll be an ad that freezes my phone completely. Nothing will work for about five seconds. Kinda scary seeing that I have a brand new iPhone XS Max. I think the app needs to be updated. I hope this review helps. Fun game. Worth the download minus the crashing.

### 3/5 — Addicting

*2018-11-11, version 1.3.8*

Super addicting.. my few issues is too many ads.. and won’t rotate on my screen not sure if that’s just my phone but still..

### 4/5 — Such a wonderful game because...

*2018-11-10, version 1.3.8*

I found out that like a level kind of🤔 had illnesses name, & I was amazed with that, and now I’m trying to got the 60 stars to fight those illnesses.

And this is a very very cringe text.

### 4/5 — Great but one issue

*2018-11-07, version 1.3.8*

There is no Iphone X support. This is dumb. When a game that literally is updated and came out recently it needs to have Iphone X support, you can’t just ditch us. Yes I phone X has a dumb format but they have been out long enough for you to develop games to support them. To be honest, that may be the only issue i have, this game is solid and reminds me of coolmath so im down with that. Just support the dang Iphone X please

### 3/5 — Blocks of ads!!

*2018-11-05, version 1.3.8*

This game and fun but soo much ads that almost every time the puzzle is completed it automatically shows ads asap!!! It soo frustrating especially whenever the data is on! Even its off, still have ads it must be the app itself

### 4/5 — Block Colors

*2018-11-02, version 1.3.8*

I really enjoy the game, but sometimes the colors of the blocks that u can only lay sideways on blend into the background. I would suggest changing the colors so they are do not blend with each other and are less confusing.

### 1/5 — Horrible ADS

*2022-11-08, version 2.0.3*

Love this game but not worth to try to play it, worst ads I have ever had playing any game. Just ridiculous!! They are after every single level and 5-10secs long.

### 1/5 — Sooo many ads

*2020-12-31, version 2.0.3*

what in the world would make the creators of this app think We would stick around despite ads showing up between EVERY level

### 1/5 — Soooooo may ads

*2019-01-02, version 1.4.3*

I downloaded the game and deleted it within 10 minutes. It’s not worth dealing with the ads. I get they want to make money, but good grief. An ad after every level. Really?

### 1/5 — Awful

*2018-11-06, version 1.3.8*

When you play this game and you need a hint it gives you the direction then you have to do it on your own and a lot of adds

### 1/5 — Too many Ads

*2018-11-03, version 1.3.8*

Downloaded it by looking at Instagram. Played one easy level and got 30 sec ad. Played another easy level got another 30sec ad. Deleted the app and never install again.

### 1/5 — Cool idea. Terrible execution.

*2018-11-03, version 1.3.8*

So I used to play this game when I was a kid. It was pretty cool actually. This game is not worth anything.

If you complete a level you watch an ad...fail a level and watch an ad...breath and watch an ad. Do yourself a favor and just don’t get this app. You’ll spend more time watching ads than playing the game. I’m not joking. I did the first 5 levels. Less than 1 minute of play time 4 minutes of watching ads...just don’t get this ad...I mean app.

### 1/5 — Bloxorz

*2018-11-02, version 1.3.8*

I’ve played this for as long as I could remember and this version of the classic I’ve played in computer class is terribly too easy. There’s no challenge factor to it which takes away from the fact that you’re playing Bloxorz

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2018-10-19, version 1.3.7*

Don’t waste your time downloading this game, way too many ads they need a lot of improvements 
Couldn’t enjoy playing it at all because of the overdone ads

### 1/5 — Way too many adds

*2018-10-09, version 1.3.6*

I get it, this is how you make your money. But making me watch a 30 second clip just to get to level two is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — ADS. SO MUCH ADS.

*2018-10-09, version 1.3.6*

I downloaded this game and after launching it, BAM 30 seconds ad. And I didn’t even get to play a single level yet. Then after the first level, which took a few seconds, bam, 30 seconds ad. Don’t waste your time. Uninstalled

### 5/5 — Great Game, 2 Suggestions

*2020-11-01, version 2.0.3*

This is a great implementation of the “rolling block” game, and I recommend it to everybody. Controls are flawless, visuals are nice, puzzles are challenging.

Two improvements would make it even better. One is that the yellow-orange background in some levels (Sagittarius, Jupiter, etc.) is exactly the same colour as the “brittle” tiles. It’s very hard to impossible to tell where you can go in these levels; changing the background or the colour of the tiles would be much appreciated.

The other is that there’s a delay of maybe half a second between the block rolling and the sound effect of its landing. This isn’t a problem most of the time, but if you’re moving a lot it’s noticeably out of sync, and once you’re aware of it, it can be annoying.

Fix those and the game will only get better!

### 5/5 — Great game.

*2019-07-24, version 1.4.9*

How do you get the “Are you seriously ...” trophy?

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-02-11, version 1.4.3*

You don’t have to pay for hints so it’s great

### 5/5 — Recommended for puzzle lovers

*2018-11-12, version 1.3.8*

A straightforward puzzle game that offers a surprising amount of content despite its simple premise. Not too difficult, and engaging enough that pretty much anyone can get into it.

### 5/5 — Lol this funny

*2018-11-04, version 1.3.8*

So, this was Funny You put fairytale and Beyblade metal fusion  on levels on different like Chapters. Oh and for me there was no ads. So This was the best game I have on my tablet!!!!!

### 5/5 — Best

*2018-11-04, version 1.3.8*

This is the best game ever there is too much ad tho but it is still a great game

### 5/5 — BEEN WAITING YEARS!!!

*2018-11-02, version 1.3.8*

Used to play this game in computer class in GRADE SCHOOL. So very excited to be able to have this piece of my childhood in my pocket!

### 5/5 — Good

*2018-11-01, version 1.3.8*

Love this game. Challenging and fun. Adds are a little ridiculous but it’s all good in the hood

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-10-29, version 1.3.8*

I use to play a game like this only it was with the chess piece the black knight and I could only move on all the ways a chess knight could move. But this reminds me of it and it’s just as fun and challenging!

### 5/5 — Best puzzle game

*2018-10-25, version 1.3.7*

The best part is when you find a way to beat it in less moves than it thinks you should need! Levels get progressively harder and become very fun by the end!
