### 3/5 — Game is flashing

*2024-03-08*

Is there a way of playing this game, without flashing me and telling me the next move? I want to play the game on my own, not having been told  which move to make.

### 2/5 — Not Able to Transfer Points & Games to New IPad

*2024-02-17*

I have been happily playing this game for a few years now and have over 120,000 points. Bought a new iPad. The game was backed up to iCloud & restored. The game number is correct but it’s a different game and, most importantly, ALL  my points disappeared. I want to erase and donate the old iPad so need to fix this

### 5/5 — Yes Jayashree.

*2024-01-16, version 1.1.0*

Like it very very much.

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2022-12-10*

This game is nice but the graphics could use some work. Some levels need to be cleared certain blocks but it’s hard to see because the background color is too dark. Would be a great game if the background color was light.

### 1/5 — ???

*2022-12-05, version 1.1.0*

Started playing and enjoying, came back to it the next day, it’s like looking for a black cat in total darkness, in other words all I get is a black screen

### 2/5 — Lost 200,000 coins after update

*2021-10-07*

Well, I lost 200,000 coins after I switched from one iPhone to another. That was the only reason I played and kept spending money. Now, I’m over it and just deleting app. I’m not going to start all over again with nothing yet still on level 9854. So disappointed.

### 1/5 — Christmas crush

*2021-04-06*

Be careful it rips you off if you pay for items you do not always get them. You have to email them to fix it but the fix to get your paid for items expires. If your not playing a lot you could miss it. They are fun to play but they have no interest in fixing there problem. And I am sure they make money from it.

### 5/5 — Christmas crush

*2020-10-25, version 1.1.0*

Love this game a lot. Is thier another game like this.

### 3/5 — Christmas

*2020-06-14*

I have had this game for years. U try to find things like this for a little entertainment and peace. This games takes high points like 180  when u  lose but when u win u get something like 23😒 how discouraging. You hit on the same piece 3 times and it still doesn’t clear it.☹️what a shame it could be very enjoyable but it is like going to Vegas and putting your debit card in the atm and getting nothing back☹️

### 5/5 — Christmas crush. Rank one

*2020-03-06*

Best game ever. Great graphics. Good music. Been playing six months. Can’t get enough. You did a great job on this one.
