It doesn’t give you correct arrow direction when you’re winning. Basically you can’t predict.the direction of the arrows based on the number of bubbles you connect cause when you think you think you have them they give you the arrows you don’t need to win the game, which makes you either lose or have to use your coins for extra lives. Game doesn’t play fair. ### 3/5 — Update Notifications broken *2025-02-12, version 2.9.92* In recent weeks when I’m notified that there is an update to the game available and I tap on the update button nothing happens. Previously it would take me to the listing in the App Store to update. ### 2/5 — More ads than game time *2024-12-03, version 2.9.4* I don’t mind ads but there are ad on top of ads, finish a 10 second game, get an ad, see the game title show but get another ad. Save your sanity and skip this ads fest!!! ### 2/5 — Lacks flow *2024-11-30, version 2.9.4* I was excited to play this game then disappointed once I played it. Here’s why: 1. The game guides you on how to play after EACH game. You cannot avoid this because it makes you draw a line through the bubbles in order to get to the actual game. I think it should show you how to play when you first download it and then give you the option to play on your own thereafter. 2. It doesn’t smoothly go to the next level of increased difficulty without all these extra theatrics and animations. I would like to just be able to go to level 2, level 3, and so on and it just shows game requirements at the top for that level instead of having a practice round each time. Very annoying. This game could’ve been fun, but developers ruined it by making us go through a journey between each level just to play the level. Also, the levels are too short. It’s way too many distractions and too much going on visually. ### 2/5 — Sigh. No! *2024-11-18, version 2.9.1* It’s okay. But it’s not good enough for the amount of ads… (finish level = ad, then move on to next level = another ad) — Eh? — No! ### 2/5 — You get to a high level and fun turns to frustration *2024-09-18, version 2.9.0* I really like this game. I am into level 400+. Now, it’s nearly impossible to advance. I am done and will delete the app. I don’t know why developers can’t just be satisfied with providing a fun game. In the end, they all want money to make the game enjoyable. See ya later…when fun returns and greed makes an exit. ### 4/5 — Me *2024-08-04, version 2.8.6* I like this game but really way to may ads it doesn't have to have an ad after every time you complete a level that is what is making me want to quit the game I know it's free because if the ads but other games are free with a lot less ads ### 3/5 — Wish you play against others *2024-07-31, version 2.8.6* I really like this game. I don’t see any ad stuff for. It is very challenging wow not too challenging. Allow you to have fun. I gave it three stars because you cannot play against Facebook friends. I wish it was a way that you can play against or see others progress because it’s a good feeling when you others progress and try to beat them ### 3/5 — Impossible to win *2024-06-14, version 2.8.4* This game will not let you win unless you pay for boosters. I’ve gotten frustrated with this game. Spending too much money. ### 5/5 — Rainy Day Fun *2024-05-17, version 2.8.2* Perfect game when housebound. Levels are challenging which helps those brain cells get a workout. Love it! ### 5/5 — So good game!!!!!!!!!!!!! *2024-05-05, version 2.8.1* Now this game is so fun. And I keep getting stuck on levels and then I go back and then I make what I’m trying to it!!!!!! Love Addie ### 5/5 — So addicting *2024-04-25, version 2.8.1* I used to make fun of my mom for her obsession with candy crush, but then I found Bubble Link. Only 5 months in and on level 1350… I think I get it now. So fun and great in game rewards! ### 5/5 — Very Addicting *2024-04-25, version 2.8.1* I absolutely love this game! It is very addictive and fun to play on down time. ### 5/5 — Love the music. *2024-04-19, version 2.8.0* I’m 73 and I love this game. I play games to keep the brain active. This one is good workout for the brain. Thank you so much but I get this game. 😉 ### 5/5 — Addictive *2024-03-13, version 2.7.0* I love this game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Super fun! Until it isn’t. *2025-07-16, version 3.0.3* This was so fun but after a certain point there’s no way to process without purchases, making it incredibly frustrating. Deleting it. ### 1/5 — Way too expensive *2025-04-14, version 3.0.1* I think the game is rigged to make you buy more cheats. Once you buy them, it makes you use them all to pass the level you are on. Next level, you are back in the same spot, unable to pass the level. Very fun and creative game, but it is a money pit. ### 1/5 — Ads, ads and more flaming ads *2025-01-06, version 2.9.7* This isn’t a game, it’s an ad… every level is separated by 2 or 3 ads… there is no fun or joy in this game ### 1/5 — Unauthorized purchases *2024-03-12, version 2.7.0* This app repeatedly charged me for unauthorized in app purchases. I had to request multiple refunds from Apple. Do NOT trust the app. ### 1/5 — Adverts ruined it *2024-02-02, version 2.6.4* I started playing this game during summer . I enjoyed it until the adverts got too frequent and long. It ruined the play experience so I have now deleted. ### 1/5 — Not for older ppl *2023-12-13, version 2.6.1* The design of this game is such that once up to ~250, the puzzles are set up to require a lot of purchases. This is because the format is not for ppl with poorer vision, such as needing bifocals and if you have astigmatism. ### 1/5 — Stuck on impossible level *2023-10-28, version 2.5.1* I am stuck on an impossible level, and even after deleting the app, I land back on the same level once again. The only way of getting past that level is buying some thing. ### 1/5 — Bad color difference *2023-02-25, version 2.3.30* You can’t see a difference between the two red/pink colors. I’ve been looking for this type of game and am very disappointed in the terrible color choice in this area ### 2/5 — Freezing *2025-04-18, version 3.0.1* Game keeps freezing ### 2/5 — Shame about hearts *2024-12-13* Great game to start but then as you progress you have to buy hearts or they run out too fast. Takes ages to get more and not many donate . So I’m going to delete the game as I haven’t the time or money to buy or wait for more lives. Just annoying ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Alex *2025-10-12, version 3.0.3* Z ### 5/5 — Upper levels ridiculously hard *2025-04-28, version 3.0.3* Now that I’m in the 5000-levels it’s gotten so hard that it’s not even fun. I probably won’t keep playing, it’s just a waste of time because it’s too hard now. ### 5/5 — Best satisfying game *2025-02-28, version 3.0.0* I love the colorful bubbles and cheerful relaxing music and sounds. ### 5/5 — Addictive! *2025-01-15, version 2.9.8* I’ve played many many games on the iPhone and this is the only game I’ve continually played and enjoyed for years. It can be very challenging and sometimes it takes me days just to complete one level, but eventually you will beat it! ### 5/5 — Prickle23 *2024-11-24, version 2.9.1* Good game ### 5/5 — Bubble Link ads *2024-10-29, version 2.9.1* The game is terrific BUT your ads are a BIG problem. They have no release. Once they end, they just remain. You cannot X out of them. So that ends the game. If that is your intent, it is working…but it is nasty. ### 5/5 — LOVE this game! *2024-08-02, version 2.8.6* This is my favorite game on my phone! I love the challenge of it, and each level is a bit different. It does get progressively harder over time but not every higher level is harder… there are some easier ones along the way, which keeps it fun and interesting. Some suggestions to the developers: I would love to see an “undo” button either as a built in feature or something that we “earn” like the bombs and magnets. Many times I have lost a level because my fingers accidentally touched the wrong bubbles.. Also the red and pink bubbles are very similar in color / tone. I have 20/20 vision and it can still be hard to distinguish between them. Perhaps a different color? Thank you 🙏 ### 5/5 — Love this game. *2024-07-12, version 2.8.5* I love this game. The hard levels take a little longer to win but it can be done eventually. To me, the most satisfying levels are when the trees are on there. The way you make them grow and it gets rid of a piece above it, it’s just satisfying. The most aggravating are the masks and the ice! I still love this game though. ### 5/5 — Bubble link *2024-06-11, version 2.8.3* It is so much fun and it keeps you entertained for hours to play with your kids and friends with your family and … ### 5/5 — Very hard to pass levels *2024-06-03, version 2.8.2* I I have been stuck at level 1758 for a few weeks now I have no boosters and no coins,,,,, Please help me pass this level!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
