Terrible

Made about 6 moves, in that time I had 2 ads pop up and deleted after the second ad. Absolutely ridiculous, just play the ads at the end you greedy ********

Bug, need update please

Up until recently I’ve had no problems with this game. The adverts are annoying but I can deal with that. I enjoy it’s simplicity. But just this last week there seems to be a bug where I can’t return my move. It just gets stuck on my last move. Please sort it out. Thanks

Security issue?

I have noticed that when opening the game, it pastes from the clipboard without any interaction from the user.
