### 1/5 — Now has ads

*2024-10-14*

The developer has ruined the game with ads. 
 I bought the game and have enjoyed it for a while but after the last update, there is an ad before every single game, making it unplayable.

### 1/5 — What’s up with the ads.

*2024-09-26*

I purchased this. After recent updates there are now all these ads. What has happened???

### 4/5 — Wish the angels go up faster

*2024-02-08*

The angels descend, too slowly I wish they went up faster like on your previous game. Also, I wish that you’d make some new games.

### 5/5 — 5 star

*2022-05-04*

Favorite game. Wish for Christmas Drops 6

This is an update to previous post. Since there has not been a new game since Christmas Drop 5, the games from this developer are buried so far in the search results that you have to search by name to find them which is a real shame.

### 5/5 — Brightens Your Day!

*2021-08-28*

I enjoy this game because I just love Christmas of course! The twirling colors put me in a good mood and playing the game, sharpens my brain.

### 5/5 — Love all these games

*2021-05-15*

Thank you for making games that don’t have ads or make it impossible to win without spending additional money. I have purchased all of them and even have some that don’t appear on the App Store anymore! I hope you will make more for us old timers to enjoy! Thank you for your hard work! Great games!

### 5/5 — Great game - great value

*2021-02-04*

Third edit: It’s a fun game, as are all by this developer.  I was kicked out a dozen times but deleted and reinstalled and have no problems now. I originally took  off 1 star but would otherwise have given it a 5 even then.  After playing it a while, I enjoyed it enough to give back the star. What I like about this developer is the price is all up front and you’re not constantly badgered to buy something or get more chances to play a level you lost. You can also play and replay the levels from the menu if you find a game you especially like. I suspect that I will keep this game on my phone after finishing it, because like this developer’s other games, you can play the particular games or levels you like as many times as you like. It’s a great value for the money.

### 5/5 — Playing for years but

*2020-12-29*

Agree with another reviewer about fixing the crashes that occur sometimes when lots of points are scored at once. I also noticed minor inconsistencies such as when Santa is used sometimes it breaks the ice on color chosen and sometimes it doesn’t. Unless I’m missing something key! Anyway. Love Bull Bitz  best match three game out there

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-07-22*

Game has unexpectedly closed numerous times.
Usually just as I get close to winning.
I have enjoyed other games from this developer, but will never buy any more if this problem is not fixed.

### 5/5 — Impossible in 2 days

*2020-04-13*

Fun and challenging. Keep making these games.
