### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-09-02, version 1.2.0*

It was great at first. Kept me busy and off social media. But now when you play they have a random forced ad you have to watch mid game, and it’s not just one, it’s almost 1 ad every 2 minutes. Immediately deleted ap. No thanks.

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads

*2026-09-02, version 1.2.0*

I loved this game so much, but had to delete because the ads became overwhelming. I know they help keep the game free, but getting at least 2 ads in the middle of a level turned me off. I had been playing for a while and the only ads I received were to open new slots or in between levels, but now they’re almost every 2-3 minutes while on a level. Too bad, I really enjoyed playing but $10 is too much just to get rid of them if you still need to watch them to open slots. $5 would be more realistic.

### 3/5 — Why all the ads?

*2026-09-02, version 1.2.0*

Went from hardly no ads to one after 5 moves. Am deleting

### 5/5 — simple

*2026-09-02, version 1.2.0*

It’s simple matching to a category :) and a nice wind down

### 1/5 — Ugly

*2026-09-01, version 1.2.0*

Ai slop game. Genuinely hurt my eyes to look at

### 3/5 — Game play

*2026-08-31, version 1.1.1*

When I started playing you could get 10 more moves by watching an ad but they took that away so you have to pay money to get more moves…I asked about it but never got an answer so I have now deleted the game.  It was a fun game but not paying more money on it.

### 1/5 — Strange Categories

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.1*

If this is a game to relax, why are there strange categories like “Beggar” and Thief? Lots of strange topics like church and sorcery, punks, vampires and coffins.

### 1/5 — Suicide Bomber category

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.1*

I mean wtf. The title says it all.

### 2/5 — Good game just hate all the ads

*2026-08-26, version 1.0.8*

Good game just hate all the ads

### 1/5 — Beaucoup trop de pubs

*2026-08-25*

Ça aurait pu être un jeu relaxant mais plus on avance plus il y a de pubs au point d’être vraiment n’importe quoi. Au moins une dizaine de pubs pour chaque petit jeu qui, sans ça, prendrait 2 minutes.
