### 3/5 — Disappointing

*2026-08-04*

The beginning of the game is perfect. You get 5k coins or so plus boosters, all the levels are easy and fun and you can decorate a ton. That’s how many games start out to get you hooked. Once you’re through your coins and boosters, you have to watch ads or pay real money. Now I was fine with the ads and paying 900 coins (that I earned) to refill lives and I was fine with some challenge in the levels but the levels just got way too hard. I even payed $4 and I still didn’t beat a single level after paying the $4. I get ripped off. There was one day I played the game and I didn’t even get to decorate anything at all because the levels were so hard. It slowed way down. It got upsetting. The challenge greatly outweighed any reward so I uninstalled. No regrets uninstalling. I would’ve loved to keep playing but this is a game only for rich people with lots of spare money after a certain point. I get that’s how “they want to get you” to get you to pay money but it’s just not worth it for me.

### 2/5 — !!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-05-20, version 1.79.0*

Fun game. Challenging enough to not be boring, but clear cut enough to not be frustrating. Lots of tools to help, and there are several ways to earn new lives.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2026-05-01*

Когда захожу на моменте обновления показывает 1% загрузки и все, дальше вылетает ошибка

### 1/5 — My 2nd 6 month Update

*2026-04-12, version 1.79.0*

** Update: it is now 4/13/2026. 2 years later and still no additional tasks. 

It has now been a full year since my initial review stating that I had reached chapter 46 and no new tasks to complete. I was told then that the design team was working on new content.  I was again told the same thing 6 months ago. When are there going to be new tasks?

### 1/5 — No more tasks

*2026-03-11, version 1.79.0*

I have zero tasks to do as it’s saying that’s yous are working on giving me more tasks for months now, played the game for years n it’s stopped me playing it from this issue.

### 5/5 — Castle story

*2026-03-09, version 1.79.0*
