It’s a good pick up game that you can enjoy but it is limited. Obviously the developer wants you to buy the upgrades and spend money but it is a little bit ridiculous. I wouldn’t mind paying a few dollars for a full game with all the modes unlocked but the developer clearly doesn’t want to do this. They want to drain the consumer and that makes the consumer spend no money within the app. Seriously make an affordable 2-3 dollar option to unlock every mode and people will invest! ### 3/5 — 🤷🏼‍♀️ *2017-12-18, version 1.04* Too much advertisement ### 4/5 — Fun for free *2017-10-24* It's free and it's fun ### 4/5 — Not too bad *2017-07-15* Just started playing it well not really I've been playing for a few days now and it's a good little time waster nothing id really take time to get skilled at but just a good little time waster for when I'm bored. Could be better on the sense of less battery use but I'm glad to see you settled down the ads a bit ### 4/5 — Good *2017-04-20, version 1.04* Good ### 3/5 — Lag *2017-03-14, version 1.04* Game lags a little ### 5/5 — Brick shot *2017-03-11, version 1.04* So amazing!! ### 5/5 — AWESOME *2017-03-10* This game is super addictive and the music is really good too ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2017-02-28* Awesome game! Cheers! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-02-27, version 1.04* I think it's a good game and addictive. It has a variety of modes to play but the only thing I would add is a wider range of colours to unlock so you have a reason to keep playing. ### 5/5 — Ооочень быстро убивает время!!! *2017-02-20, version 1.04* Очень круто, давно на видел таких убивалок. ### 4/5 — È FANTASTICO *2017-02-15, version 1.04* Arcade bellissimo, grafica fluida, suondtrack eccellente e ottima giocabilità, ma presenta un bug nella modalità piano, cioè che non va il sonoro, non si sentono le note, richiede un aggiornamento testato su iPhone 5s e 6s. ### 5/5 — 面白い *2017-02-15, version 1.04* 暇つぶしのゲーム探してたら見つけてやってみたら中々に面白い。簡単に出来て目標的なのも作れて面白いです。自分も1000とか目指したい ### 5/5 — Brick Shot *2017-01-25, version 1.04* Fantastic game, great for passing an hour or so. ### 5/5 — 구매내역 삭제 요청 드립니다. *2017-01-22, version 1.04* 구매내역 삭제 요청 드립니다. ### 4/5 — 노래가 다양했으면 *2017-01-09, version 1.04* 재밌는데 노래랑 브릭샷 소리가 잘 어울렸으면 ### 4/5 — Very cool *2017-01-08, version 1.04* I think that game is really simple, fast and addictive. Ads are a little annoying but it's a cool game ! Thumbs up ! ### 4/5 — Upped my rating *2017-01-02* Update: Turned off data for the app and ads are significantly less annoying/nonexistent when I'm not on wifi. I'm not against advertising as a a way to help provide free content, but ads pop up in the MIDDLE of gameplay, which slows things down, messes things up and most recently, crashes the game while I was crushing my high score. Still some bugs to work out Actual gameplay is frenetic and fun. Will probably buy ad free at some point... but want stability improvements first. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DEFINITELY NOT ADDICTIVE! *2019-03-28, version 1.04* Bricks come down the screen and you have to fill the he space(s). Within a very short space of time the bricks are coming down far to fast! ### 1/5 — Overheated my phone and has too many bugs! *2017-05-06* This game has great potential, but all of it was lost when even i closed out the app, it was draining my battery dramatically. My IPhone 7 Plus would last 1 hour on STANDBY because if it. After i hard reset my phone and reinstalled, it was way to buggy, it would randomly close and freeze mid game, causing me to lose my score. Again, great potential, gone. ### 1/5 — It speeds up to fast. *2016-12-30, version 1.04* It speeds up to quickly. You are doing good for about 10 seconds and then it's so difficult that you loose 5 seconds later. This is super annoying. They should add different levels of difficulty. ### 1/5 — Unlocking *2016-12-29* Why in the name of all that is holy would you make part of your game locked, the diversity of game play is one of the only reasons I got this game ### 1/5 — Lame *2016-12-26, version 1.01* Concept peu original et publicités envahissantes qui interrompent en pleine partie Boring and way to much publicity impairing gaming experience ### 1/5 — Not a game *2016-12-21, version 1.03* I don't understand . I think it's still being made or something ### 1/5 — If you want me to like your Facebook page, you should ask. *2016-12-20* Free apps can, I'm sure, be difficult to be made profitable. But if you want to start opening other applications and loading your Facebook page, don't disguise a button different than a Facebook thumbs up as a barrier to a different game mode. Ask if you want a share/review, etc. Now, I have to go look through my liked pages just to make sure I didn't actually like your Facebook page. ### 1/5 — Endless Reboot *2016-12-19* I'm not the type to write reviews but I had to in my case. After a few days of playing this game, my phone would freeze up, and I'd have to reboot my phone to get it up and running again. At one point, my phone wouldn't start back up and got stuck into an endless reboot. The only solution was to factory reset it, causing me to lose hundreds of photos and messages. Just a warning to all who are playing. I'd recommend backing up your phone or deleting the game altogether. I love the app with the addicting gameplay and amazing soundtracks, but the risk of losing all the data on your phone isn't worth it. ### 1/5 — Why *2016-12-19, version 1.02* You guys have an amazing concept with an excellent build, but the ridiculous amount of 30 second advertisements that you have to watch to get through a minute of play is just too much. Please just have the basic closable ads and it will be fine. Also your game crashes my phone pl0x fix ### 1/5 — Thanks but no thanks *2016-12-18, version 1.02* Love the game. Hate all the 30 second ads every 10 seconds. Not cool at all. Wish I could actually play the game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Game bug *2024-02-08* When ever I open the app it kicks me out of it and I also tried deleting it and downloading it multiple times but still won’t let me play one of my favorite game. ### 5/5 — DEC-11-2023 NO Longer Works *2023-12-11, version 1.04* Click on open and the game closes after purchase. Please fix. ### 5/5 — the game cannot open *2022-06-21, version 1.04* since i want to open the app, it stopped and can't work. it repeated again and again and i don't know what's the problem. Can i know what's the problem of this app ASAP please ! ### 5/5 — Very very nice *2019-06-25, version 1.04* VERY NICE NICE NICE ### 5/5 — Bad day *2018-01-28, version 1.04* Today is monday,I have a bad day :( ### 5/5 — Love it *2018-01-24, version 1.04* This is literally my fave game 😍 so addiction ### 5/5 — Lit asf🤘🏽💕 *2017-09-16* It crashes sometimes but that really rare ..it doesn't lag or nothing it's hella fun ... u don't need to use the internet or wifi to play 😂 get the game it's fun. plus why not? ### 5/5 — Simple but effective *2017-07-17, version 1.04* Very fun to play with nice soundtrack. :) simple but very good. ### 5/5 — Super fun game *2017-07-10, version 1.04* I enjoy it!
