### 2/5 — Perde o sentido

*2020-11-03*

O jogo é muito legal nos primeiros “mundos”, mas quando chega em um denominado Puzzles o jogo muda seu sentido e fica chato, somos obrigados a bater na bola de um jeito que caia perfeitamente em um lugar, sendo que é impossível ter um controle preciso da bola quando bate no nosso “bastao”, isso me fez apagar o app.

### 3/5 — Adorable game

*2019-01-11*

The game works well however when I do the unlimited mode the game just bootloops.

### 4/5 — Love it but hate the timer

*2018-06-27*

I adore this game. It’s so cute and fun but I wish I could just play the levels with the incredibly short timer. I’d much rather enjoy the levels than be racing a clock constantly.  Other than super cute and fun.

### 2/5 — Надоедает, удалил

*2017-01-19*

Игра быстро наскучивает, поскольку на уровень даётся ограниченное количество времени, в которое невозможно уложиться без пауэрапов, а они появляются на уровне рандомно :) Либо больше времени надо, либо пауэрапы чаще. Каждый уровень - лотерея, особенно где надо пробивать путь на другую сторону. Пока игра чаще всего вызывает злость, злость на разработчиков.

### 4/5 — Brickies

*2016-10-02*

Really Great Game, But the glitching really ruins it.
Don't know why it glitches, but it needs looking at.
Slows down and crashes were game I've played recently 
It's Sad because it is such an amazing game.

Secondly, i think they need to make a few more levels
As I had completed most of them before it started crashing

### 3/5 — Simply complex

*2016-08-14*

This game is great to play on and off like during a break, lunch, waiting and pretty much anything with cracks of time. If your looking for a game to win quickly and feel good about winning, then it's probably not for you. Honestly try it out till you start to feel that frustration and if you do not like that feeling from this game just press your home button and delete the game and look for another one. When I play: I play without getting extra time in those ads, so if you want to play and not get frustrated then watch an ad to get some more time when your close to winning . When you add up all the ads you watch you realize you can be playing another game much better that is less time consuming. Well hope that helps anyone have a great year :)

### 3/5 — Time to Quit

*2016-03-29, version 1.0.4*

I've played level 4 #18 more times than I can count. Ridiculously hard, I never even came close to beating it. I give up. I enjoyed the game but now unfortunately am done with it.

### 4/5 — It's fine so far....

*2016-03-26*

The game is nice so far and I've had no crashes yet, so kudos to the creators. I just failed a level and there was a text saying "You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?" Like, DANG. Straight out of Majora's Mask. Be more creative.

### 2/5 — Impossible to play

*2016-03-25*

This is a very attractive and nicely designed game.  However, the controls are very laggy on my ipad2 which makes it impossible to play.  I am uninstalling, sorry.

### 3/5 — 30-second ads? No.

*2016-02-09, version 1.0.4*

10-second ads, ads on side but not in way of game, bonus power-ups for watching 30-second ads, even 30-second ads you can opt to skip after five seconds...all of these are acceptable, but there are too many similar  games, like Sketch Breaker which is definitely more fun, to spend 30 seconds waiting to retry a level for me to waste my time on this one.

### 3/5 — Laggy on my iPod touch 5g

*2016-01-04, version 1.0.4*

I really enjoy playing this game, but it seems to be very resource-intensive. The animation is laggy, it drains my battery, and it occasionally quits. I've played many seemingly more complex games which ran much more smoothly and efficiently on my hardware.

### 2/5 — Syncing between devices

*2015-12-28, version 1.0.4*

The levels that you get on one device will not transfer to another device like other games. Is is a little frustrating.

### 3/5 — Ads

*2015-12-16*

Good game, but what annoys me is the 5 second ads they throw at you so randomly, especially since there is a system to get players to voluntarily watch ads in exchange for more playtime, giving me involuntarily ads is just asking me to stop playing

### 3/5 — Cute and fun at first, marred by ad and design choices

*2015-09-30*

Attractive and simple design, with very approachable gameplay. Power-ups definitely a blast to play with. However it quickly becomes frustrating and tiresome due to the unavoidable (yet only occasional) advertisements that pop up when you're frequently retrying levels. It isn't an way game and the strict time limits really don't quite feel very fair a lot of the time. Seems like a distinct lack of respect for players and a lack of play testing.

Certain game design elements work against you before long - you will find yourself often frustrated with rounded corners and even the length of your own paddle (it's quite unnecessarily annoying in the corners).

And most disappointingly, the designers in their infinite wisdom decided to take away the power-ups for the last set of puzzles! They were barely enjoyed throughout the earlier part or the game (short time limit with them) and the remainder of it without feels unnecessarily difficult and more of a chore. It's like the levels were not adequately play-tested at all.

In the end you really should give this a shot and try a few puzzle packs out before moving on to something that respects you and your time better. 

Updates to the game would go a long way, including paid ad removals, more power-ups, changing of some irritating design elements that only prove to increase difficulty in unfair ways. Looking at you, columns of rounded corner blocks.

### 1/5 — Timelimit so i deleted

*2023-01-31*

Timelimit ruins gameplay. Otherwise awesome. 
Deleted.

### 1/5 — Ads Not Removed

*2018-02-02*

I paid to remove ads, and the ads were not removed. App hangs on victory screen requiring force quit to continue.

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2017-07-18*

The app no longer works at all following the update. Even after deleting and reinstalling.

### 1/5 — All about LUCK

*2017-06-11, version 1.0.4*

No game like this should rely on luck so much.. especially being timed. If you strive to get 3 stars on every level like I do, you will find you're self restarting over and over to get the right power up to spawn in the right spot. And the timing system is almost like they just through it in last minute to spice it up because there's no way in hell anyone was testing the times for each level correctly . It's terrible some levels you'll beat with over half the timer available other times you won't even be able to get that 3rd star

### 1/5 — Horrible game.

*2016-08-13, version 1.0.4*

Simply horrible.

### 1/5 — Kann nicht weiterspielen

*2016-03-11*

Lvl 2-2 laggt bei mir so sehr das ich das board nicht mal kontrollieren kann selbst wenn ich alle Hintergrund Programme geschlossen habe

### 1/5 — No longer playable

*2015-11-08, version 1.0.4*

I've had a love/hate relationship with this game for a while. Some levels even with the extra time take forever to beat which makes me abandon the game for a couple weeks before trying again. But I always come back cause when it isn't being impossible the game is a lot of fun.
Except now every time I try to play it freezes two seconds in. Would be 3 stars if it still worked.

### 1/5 — Fun but crashes

*2015-07-25, version 1.0.4*

This is a fun game, but it crashes often and when I happen to be scoring well.

Please! For the love of God! Make an upgrade already

Please fix the crashes!

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2015-07-07*

This game would easily be a 5 out of 5 but since I can't play it, I give it a 1/5. Please fix the crashes

### 1/5 — Constant crashes!!!!

*2015-07-06*

Fun and challenging game, but crashes so often... After every 1-7 level trys

### 5/5 — А могла бы…

*2022-08-14*

С таким дизайном, простотой управления, музыкой и геймплеем игра могла бы стать лучшей из казуальных, но вот популярность осела(

### 5/5 — 구매 내역 삭제좀요

*2016-09-12*

용량이...

### 5/5 — Become an LPSTUBER!

*2016-06-15, version 1.0.4*

This is supposed to be an app review, but I wanted to advertise something that can only be done once in a lifetime! That is becoming an LPSTUBER! If you don't know what that means, it means making videos to post on YouTube that are about LPS, whether they are high school cat fights, or sci-fi action. Whatever the genre may be, every video counts, and every video makes at least one of you smile! We need more LPSTUBERS now more than ever! Start making people smile and laugh...today. (I'm ten, and I am also an LPSTUBER, but believe it or not, many teenagers love making people smile by LPSTUBEING!)

### 5/5 — Simple and fun. :)

*2016-05-27, version 1.0.4*

<3

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2016-03-20*

Classic game with such beautiful redone. I thought I was done with the game but this got me addicted to it again. On top of all this it is completely free. Loved it. Looking forward to new levels.

### 5/5 — Yes

*2016-02-20, version 1.0.4*

Hello can u pls make another one or more levels I've been playing non stop for 3 weeks and I finish the whole game pls make more thank

### 5/5 — Add iCloud support

*2015-10-28, version 1.0.4*

Great game

### 5/5 — Great game! But level 4.10 is bugged!

*2015-07-23*

The power ups spawn in the green guy sometimes and sometimes the level boots up with no bricks to hit! While you guys are fixing it, I believe increasing the time on the level is also a good idea, it's far too difficult (read: specific power up reliant) at the moment!

Otherwise very good game, I've had lots of fun so far.
