### 2/5 — Lost all my coins

*2025-08-04, version 5.3.2*

After recent updates all the coins I won were removed. Been playing it for years and never ever used them… but they say nope. You never had that many… wrong answer.

### 3/5 — Love it.  But

*2024-05-05, version 5.1.4*

Second time I have run into a level that I have been trying to beat for 2 weeks. Every day. Multiple times a day. Not worth it. About to delete when I saw update and hope they just get rid of it

### 2/5 — New ads that freeze the app?

*2016-05-16, version 4.4.0*

Been playing this game for some time. Fun and addicting, but the latest "update" has introduced ads before every time you play a game that play over and over again with no ability to exit. Some ads require you to shut down the game because they won't stop, which makes you lose lives. There's an "x" circle at the top right of the screen, but pressing it only stops/starts playback of the ad.

Looks like the "update" wasn't much to improve anything in the game...time to move on.

### 3/5 — Loads of Fun

*2016-04-20, version 4.4.0*

I love this game. However, I wish they'd come out with more levels more quickly. I've gone as far as I can. It says more coming soon, but it's been well over 6 months.

### 3/5 — Leider hat sich ein Fehler eingeschlichen

*2016-04-02*

Betrifft nur die Version auf dem iPad:

Bei der Werbung für die App "Game of War - Fire Age" friert das Spiel immer ein!
App löschen und neu installieren hat nicht geholfen.

### 3/5 — GAME STOPPED WORKING

*2015-08-29, version 4.4.0*

This game was both fun and challenging! Now that I've finished all the levels, I've been waiting for new levels for months they say are "coming soon" but nothing has come! While waiting I've been playing my favorite games till a week ago when my game stopped working right! Turned off phone several times but still won't work right! It doesn't give you your bonus bubbles for making good pops (rainbow, striped, etc) so it's not possible to win and pointless to play! If not for that and the long wait for new levels I would of given a 5 star rating as this was my favorite game!

### 4/5 — Needs new levels!!

*2015-04-06, version 4.4.0*

I've been totally addicted to this game for quite awhile now.. But I'm getting tired of playing the same levels over & over. When will new levels be available?!?

### 3/5 — New update a bust

*2015-01-28, version 4.4.0*

Addicted to the game, but continue to be frustrated by the periodic freeze when I attempt to watch commercials for additional plays. They've also introduced another layer of ads, but I'd accept that without the other issues.

### 2/5 — A Bit of S Bust

*2015-01-09, version 4.4.0*

I've had this game for a while. Initially it was fun & challenging, but now it's just annoying. Updates never come or work. Bonus rounds show up sporadically. Once you reach a particular level you can't get further without buying power-ups & frankly I'm not paying for a stagnant game. Emails sent directly to developers are basically ignored or placating answers given. BUST in the title is apropos. Download something else that actually works & the developers actually care about.

### 4/5 — Mostly fun except for insults and impossible-to-win or 3-star levels

*2014-10-26, version 4.4.0*

I've enjoyed this game a lot except for the need to use power ups to come close to getting 3 stars on some levels. The supposed update to make some levels easier didn't solve them (levels 5-4, 5-15).

The authors should also replace the "You failed" insult since there are some situations where you CANNOT POSSIBLY WIN. The game's randomizer doesn't always provide a game that can be won at all given the few options available. There's no way *I* failed if THEY FAILED to give me any way to succeed (level 5-22)

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2014-08-28, version 4.3.1*

Fun game. Can't wait for more levels

### 3/5 — What happened??!!

*2014-08-21, version 4.3.1*

What happened to are Daily Rewards?? I upgrade the game & now i don't get the daily bonus anymore why?? That was fun it gave me a chance to practice..

### 4/5 — Fun

*2014-08-09, version 4.3.0*

Love playing the game. Fix the update you had from last week so I can play again. You made it unplayable after the update.  I'm not deleting and reloading the app after accomplishing that many levels. Do something about it.

### 5/5 — Super Addictive!!!

*2014-06-02, version 4.2.1*

***** THE ADDITIONAL LEVELS ARE A BLAST! *****

***Love the new updated version of this very addictive game!**

Much more fun than farm heroes - better more engrossing puzzles!

### 1/5 — Unmögliches Zwangsupdate - ich will die alte Version wieder zurück!!!

*2023-05-13*

Was muss ich machen damit ich die alte Version wieder bekomme??

### 1/5 — New version is a mega fail 😭

*2023-05-11, version 5.0.1*

It’s been years since any changes have been made to this app, and for years I have been enjoying its simplicity, having completed all the levels I picked my favourite and went back to it every day. SHOCKED AND DISAPPOINTED with this ‘upgrade’ which is a rewrite - there are exploding mines now and the graphics are shocking. CONFUSING, MESSY and ABOUT TO BE DELETED!!!!! Do us a favour and bring back the old version please.

### 1/5 — Thieves!!!

*2021-03-07, version 4.4.2*

What is wrong with this game??? There’s no possible way to pass this current level. I have spent so much money and can’t win if there are no grays to win if your goal is 2 fish when no fish are made!!!! Why is this???????????? You are just taking my money and that’s messed up. Refund my money!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Fun until level 2-13

*2015-09-04, version 4.4.0*

Games is fun until this level, then it's pay up or wait for a lucky break. NO THANKS

### 1/5 — Kötü

*2014-09-16, version 4.3.1*

İğrenç bir oyun

### 1/5 — Pls bring back the old version

*2014-06-25, version 4.2.1*

I used to love the old version and now I don't play.  Please bring back the old version.  I'm bummed that we made the update...

### 1/5 — Bubble buster

*2014-04-08, version 4.1.1*

It's terrible, impossible to get past levels, no way to take fish out without paying for busters. This game needs a lot of work,

### 1/5 — Bring back the old version

*2014-03-29, version 4.1.1*

Keep this one for anyone who wants it, but bring back the classic version.  I enjoyed it more than the new one.

### 1/5 — I want it back!

*2014-03-28, version 4.1.1*

I do not like this new version at all.  I don't like the change in graphics, or the fact that you now have to pay to play more than 5 rounds!  I want my old Bubble Buster back!

### 1/5 — HATE this update!!!

*2014-03-16, version 4.0.0*

I never write app reviews, but I have to with this because I HATE this update. It's awful.
